Happy Friday!
During the last Papertrey Release I really liked the shaker card that Nichole Heady made using No Strings Attached and the Phrase Play die.
So my version is actually a faux shaker. I used Ombre Builders for my background. I put a piece of acetate behind the happy to make it a bit more sturdy and I popped the frame up so it stood out from the background. I was thinking after I took the photo that I should have glued a few sequins to the card base under the happy cut out. Next time. Quick and easy!

Here is a close up just to be CLEAR!
Yesterday my sister had to put her dog down. Jordy was the biological cousin of my dog Sam. It was very sudden and a very sad day. The loss of a pet, especially one with such an amazing personality is so hard . I am sharing a photo of him so you can see what a beautiful dog he was!
RIP Jordy ♥
RIP Jordy ♥

poor pup...sorry to hear about Jordy.
Your card is gorgeous! I love love love love the colors!! Sorry about her doggy :(
Such a happy card, Tracey, in contrast with a sad story beneath. :( Poor Jordy, poor your sister, too! It hurts sooooo much to lose a fur baby. Ah, yes, so much. Time heals a bit, but I still get teared up over losing my cat, Smoat, in 2010. Your sister will be in my thoughts.
LOVE this card, Tracey! Sorry to hear about your sister's dog. :(
Love the fun faux shaker card, the doodled lines look great.
So sorry to hear about your sister's dog, how very sad.
Your faux shaker is a fab idea I love it!
I know too well the loss of our four legged family members, I am sad for her loss! Love your card, Tracey, talked myself out of that stamp set, but just might have to get it. Geesh, do we ever get caught up on our wish list? PTI would have to STOP producing stamps for a year, I think!!

Your card is stunning. Love the Ombre Builders and how you've got them peeking out from the Phrase Play die. You are such an enabler, lol...I'll be popping right over to PTI after this! Have a great weekend. Bev

A faux shaker ... I love it!! What a great idea, and totally worth stealing : ) Gorgeous colors on the background, Tracey! So sorry to hear about your sister's adorable dog : (
Such a fun card Tracey. And for once I did get this stamp set. So sad for your sister and you. Jordy looks a lot like my son's dog, Guinness, who also had to be put down this year. So, I feel your loss.
Very sad about the dog....so sorry for your sister.
Love this card and the beautiful background! Wish I bought those!
So sorry for your sister's loss. On a brighter note, your faux shaker is genius--not having to fuss with the sequins! And I'm waiting for that PTI set since I missed it, thinking I didn't "need" it. ;)
