Have seen quite a few edge to edge shaker cards lately and came up with an idea for using a cellophane Halloween treat bag for my shaker.
I was able to make two cards from one treat bag by cutting down the inside fold of the bag. The bag I used had the spider web design on it. I followed Mindy Eggen's method for constructing the card. I die cut the spider and added black thread to attach it to the back of the shaker. The body of the spider is covered with glossy accents for some added shne. Then just put it on a black card base and done. I think I'll look for some Christmas treat bags at Dollar Tree or one of the craft stores.
Am entering my card at Addicted to CAS (spooky) and TwoOldBats (anything goes).
Thanks for visiting today.
