Barbie Inspired Shaker with Davina

Hello crafty friends! Davina here with you today, to share a Barbie Inspired Shaker card I made using two of the Cheeky Big Kits. I love being able to combine and mix and match my stamp sets in order to make custom scenes. But today I took it a little further, and I made a custom image using two characters. I wanted a a ponytail hairstyle with a vintage-ish dress to color a Billie Eilish inspired Barbie singing “What was I made for?”

I know the song is sad and so haunting, but I love it and had been wanting to make this idea for a while, and the other day I got to work. I found the hair I liked on a Cheeky Girl from a previously release Big Kit called Cheeky Girly Girls. And the dress and body I preferred was on the Cheeky Divas “Sia” image. I began by masking the body on one image, stamping, and then lining up the neck with head, and masking the face of the Sia

Because of the nice large stamp sizes, it was easier than other times I’ve done this, and I was able to use a white gel pen to erase a smudge and a black COPIC Multi liner to fill in the patchy area when the images connected. I colored my new image in with her yellow dress and platinum ponytail. It was perfect! I also used two of the accessories from the Cheeky Divas set, the microphone and the Grammy. 

I stamped a positive sentiment onto a wavy banner so my card didn’t seem said, and I printed up some lyrics that I die cut a word bubble for. Everything was adhered to my custom mini slimline shaker set and filled to the brim with sparkling stars and sequins. I feel like it has a Glam appearance and if you look carefully, there are some Barbie icons on the back point patterned paper. 

I hope this fun card is inspiring to you and that you shop your stash to make some new projects. Always remember that there are enough requests for previous stamp sets, that The Greeting Farm might re release them! Thanks for stopping by,
