Jillibean Soup Shades of Color Collection

I am LOVING the new Jillibean Soup Shades of Color collection! What's not to love about bright, happy colors, paint swatch patterned papers and creativity themes? I have been using this collection on a ton of projects recently.
If you haven't checked out the Jillibean Soup designed digital cuts in the Silhouette store, you must! They are awesome. The Be Your Own Kind of Amazing is available there.
If you don't have a Silhouette, you can always grab the large die cut letters that coordinate with the collection like I did for this layout:
But if you DO have a Silhouette, they sell the same alphabet there too!
Another great thing about Jillibean Soup collections is that you can often mix and match collections very easily. I used both Shades of Color and Farmhouse Stew for this layout documenting our puppies' first birthday.
Another of my favorites from Jillibean Soup is the shakers! I can't get enough of the new shapes and seed beads and wood veneer shakers!
You can't go wrong with a Distress Oxide Inked background either!
Phew! Tons of projects with the new collections! Have you been creating with them! I would love to hear what you are making!

Ornament Shaker Cards

The Shaped Shaker Kit at Queen and Co this month is called Merry & Bright and it is FANTASTIC! It includes SIX different ornament shaped dies and shaped foam shakers to make the prettiest ornament shakers!
The colors in the kit vary widely from the fresh modern colors including pinks and teals like in the Joy card above, to the traditional Christmas colors you see below:
I love the candy toppings that you can use to fill the shakers and all the goodies including twine and stretchy string, that come in this kit.
If you would like to see all the elements of the kit and how I put the modern colored shaker card together, check out this video!

Halloween Pumpkin Shakers - Two Ways

If you haven't seen the Queen and Co. Halloween Hoopla Shaped Shaker kit yet, you MUST check it out! (Everything is linked down below). I especially love the pumpkin shakers and I made TWO different cards with them. The first could be used for other occasions beyond Halloween.
I love how the pumpkin shaker is the star of the show on a small circle shaped card.
The second card is definitively Halloween-themed.
On the second card, I added a witch hat shaker from the same kit on top of the cute pumpkin.
Want to see how I used two shaped shakers on one card? Check out this video, where you will also see all the elements included in the Halloween Hoopla kit:
