What's Shakin?

Today I'd like to share the card I recently made for my brother's birthday.  It's been several weeks ago now ~ my posting has been delayed and delayed waiting on the card to arrive at his house.  It's always amazing that some mail can arrive in 2 days and others going to the same place take 3+ weeks.  

Mike is very talented in several musical instruments, so that was the theme I selected.  I've used The Saxophonist from The Paper Shelter and also the juke box and accessories from Sugar Pea Designs, Juke Box Jive.  

Here's his completed card and then a little about making it. 


I started by stamping the juke box on a 6" square of Neehah 110# cardstock.  I stamped the Coke and Float on an additional smaller piece and printed the digital X man from Paper Shelter on another piece of cardstock.  

I used Copic markers for coloring all the pieces and then fussy cut the Coke, float and the sax player. Next I mounted the juke box on a 6" card base then added the black and white check strip down the left side.  

I stamped the 'What's Shakin?' under the juke box using Versafine black ink.  Then added a tiny foam dot under the float and Coke, gluing them at the base and allowing the top to have dimension.  

Lastly, I added a wobbler to the back of the sax player and added him to the card. It really turned out so cute!

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog.  I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to “Follow” my blog and to visit my site ~ “Not Just Scraps” on Facebook ~ where you can purchase my cards.

    What a wonderful card Pam - and the post in New Zealand is somewhat erratic, like yours!
    When I read your blog post title, I immediately thought of Christchurch, although we had a reasonable shake up here in the North Island the other day, only about 150 kms away...
    Stay safe
    Blessings
