I love the jellybeans in the first one - they remind me of those fancy Jelly Belly beans - and so much fun to have them shake around :) Your second card is equally beautiful - your corner garden is so beautifully watercoloured and that hummingbird is the perfect addition! So great that you joined our Birthday celebration at Time Out!

Those colors are so clean and bright against the white background, and so beautifully shaded.<br /><br />Now, onto the shaker card. Oh, I feel your pain because shaker cards are my crafty nemesis. I have only made two shaker cards in my life and they both nearly brought me to tears, ha! Whether beads, or sequins, or confetti..nothing seems to end up where it's supposed to be. My last shaker was made with a special shaker die and window, and it still came out wonky! Yours, however, is sweet and delightful (as jelly beans always are).Karenladdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17392815855900173356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-709379730385988881.post-837383451860123902018-03-28T05:39:16.938-07:002018-03-28T05:39:16.938-07:00Fabulous cards, your shaker card is fabulous and y...Fabulous cards, your shaker card is fabulous and your hummer card with the bright gorgeous coloring is amazing!

I know that meant a lot to you. I know what you mean about shaker cards. They are not easy for me either. But you did a bang up job, so all the efforts were well worth it. I love the second card. I have wished for that same hummingbird stamp, but have resisted the urge to buy it.

They have great role models in you, the Mister and their parents. I'm glad they got out and made some cards with you for their mom, so sweet! Now speaking of cards, wow! I love your shaker card, just to stamp and cut out those jelly beans was amazing, but the card turned out amazing as well! I love shaker cards, I haven't made one in a long while though. lol Then there is your second card-well it is just stunning Auntie! The scene you created is so beautiful, love your coloring as well.

I know just what you mean about the gizmo and the extension cord being too much trouble to get out so you struggle on with what you have out! And clever Hammy pinching those colourful jelly beans to use as cushions - great sense of interior decorating! Thanks for making a card the challenge I'm hosting at CAS Mix Up!<br /><br />And your second card is so lovely in all those vibrant colours - it's been too drab and grey here that they are a feast for my eyes.
