Mitten Shaker Card - PrettyPinkPosh MittenShaker RubberneckerStamps CoffeeGirlsSet

Combined several different items to make this Shaker card including many new items. Was inspired by @Amy Tsuruta to use the Pretty Pink Posh Mitten Shaker that I received end of last yr, 2024, and I'm using for the first time.

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to practice more on coloring like I did here with Copic markers.

Inspired by Challenge Tea Time  1/8

Was inspired by the theme of Tea Time since I'm fond of tea more so than coffee. My favorite teas are English Breakfast & Earl Grey. I like Starbucks London Fog (Earl Grey Latte). Used the color red because it suited the hearts shaker and my Starbucks personal cup I most often use for hot drinks is red with white lid.

Was inspired by mittens in picture below and used a mitten shaker.

Was inspired by the sketch in arranging my elements (girl image with tea, mitten & snowflakes).
