My Creative Time August Release - Sneak Day 4

46thEditionBannerSmall 
Happy Thursday!!!
Today is day 4 of sneaks for the My Creative Time August release. The set we are sneaking today is called Prehistoric Holidays, it is a stamp and coordinating die set. 
37-37
My project for today is a shaker card made with a bamboo embroidery hoop. I've had this hoop sitting on my table for the last year wanting to make a shaker with it. When I saw this dinosaur set, I knew I had to make it for Z. I love how it turned out, but next time I am going to put the metal tightening piece on the side so it will stand up by itself! I had a major DOH! moment when I was taking photo's. Oh well, craft and learn... right? I used my Zig watercolor markers to do the background piece and my Prisma colored pencils for the rest.
