Sequin Crazy!

Hey everybody! Happy Friday! It's Taheerah here with a card to kick off your weekend!

Do you know how awesome Neat & Tangled sequins are? Very awesome, that's how awesome! Danielle started this trend way back when we were all thinking 'Sequins? On a card? Instead of rhinestons? What?'

I don't think I've used a single rhinestone on a card since. Heh.

So for my card today I wanted to celebrate all things sequin! And what better way to do that with a fun shaker card?!

I love how this turned out!!

I wanted to create a super-fun sequin background to start with, so I used the sequin stamp from Photo Booth to do just that! I went with a more masculine colour scheme because, well, why not?!

I then had loads of fun picking out which colour sequins to use! There are so many I'm pretty much spoilt for choice! I opted for colours that closely matched my colour palette, and complimented those with stamped sentiment circles from Everyday Circles - kinda like giant sequins in themselves!

I sandwiched all my sequins and sentiments with a sheet of acetate to create the fun, full-card window! I adhered that to my base and added some hand-drawn faux stitching and I was all done!

I hope this card brought some sunshine to your day! Thanks for stopping by!
