Boys Rule Scrapbooking Kits with a cute page and a super fun shaker


Hi everyone... I am back again as Guest Designer with Boys Rule Scrapbooking Kits.
Today I am sharing a layout and a fun shaker with a tip on making a tassle.

I am starting with this fun boy page. Black is always a nice add on to a masculine page and
it was a great add on with the colour orange in the kit print papers. 



I started again with some fun gesso stenciling for texture in the background for a rustic touch along with some ink stenciling too. This section also boasts some fun kit accents.


Small but fun clusters are great in corners of a page for added colour and design. I also changed up and added a circular photo.


This section details the mix of alpha stickers, corner cross borders and some swirled twine accent.

*******************************************************

And are you ready for some fun. Up next is a shaker and instructions to make a tassle accent.


Using the packaging from the jillibean die cut embellishments I started with tracing and hand
cutting the outer edge to cover the glue section of the clear package covering. Sequins for the kits are shades of blue with a touch of green so I went with kit stash in the dark blue shade. The background of the shaker is super fun polka dots, cute little dog accent, fun tags and birthday sentiments.


This photo shows a test of all the pieces fitting perfectly before Sequins are put inside.


Place the sequins into the centre section away from the edges where the glue will be adhered to the background base and plastic. Be sure to totally let it dry so sequins don't stick to the outer edges.


Here is the shaker all put together and dried. It need some outer accents and 
what better than a tassle and multiwraps around the base.


To make the tassle wrap around your fingersabout 6-8 times 
depending on size and thickness you'd like.


Take a separate piece to twine to wrap aroung the top of tassle and
 firming tie it off about 1/4" below top edge.


Now cut apart and even out the bottom of the tassle strings.


Around the outer lip of the plastic wrap 2 or 3 times and glue down firmly.


Tie the tassle to the side into outer twine border and securely fasten it.
Here is the finished shaker with fun tassle.
Sure hope you love this cute easy idea as much as I did sharing with you.

This kit had amazing endless amounts of fun, colourful and fabulous accents which
made creating so much fun and easy.

Thanks for stopping by.... would you believe I still have another post to share and
 still using the same fabulous Boys Rule Scrapbooking Kit.
