Show and Tell with Michelle : Shaker Card ~ Color Dare #660

How about a new color challenge from our team at Color Dare? The week we have 3 colors for you and you must use at least 2 of them The colors are shown in the graphic along with the fine print rules. Take a look below.

When I sat down to create a project for this challenge I imagined something very different than this shaker card. Haha..it happens so I just went with it. As I was creating the card ideas were popping into my head and I worked them into the design. Thank goodness it all came together nicely. *whew

The Gallery Blooms Bundle is one of my current favorites. I used markers to color the flowers. The leaves were left uncolored because the challenge didn't allow any green for leaves.

I used the frame die from the bundle then embossed it. I love the partial texture on the frame.

Construction of the shaker element. Once I had all the pieces cut and prepped I started putting it all together.

The flowers were tucked both behind and in front of the frame.
Next I added the window sheet I trimmed to fit the back of the frame.
The Foam Adhesive Strips were applied around the back of the frame making sure to not have any gaps for the sequins to leak out of.
I stamped the sentiment on the card front using the frame piece as a guide for placement,
Now it's time to sprinkle the sequins on the card front.
Carefully peel the backing off the foam strips and place the frame onto the card front.
As a final touch I added some ribbon along the fold.
Now you have a shaker card!
