I created this shaker card for the My Favorite Things Sketch challenge. I love the sequins in the windows. I added a little sparkle for the 4 Crafty Chicks challenge.
I started by stamping an ornate background with Versafine black ink. Then I colored the four window areas with different colors of Lindy's Magicals and a watercolor brush. I used 110 lb cardstock, so it can take a little water. I chose a decorative rectangle die to create the cutout for the windows.
Next, I decided to color the window frame. I used more Lindy's Magicals to watercolor the frame with a soft aqua color. I love the Magicals because they pack a lot of color in very little product plus they have lots of shimmer.
I chose a matching tone background paper and mounted the window on a piece of aqua cardstock. The tone on tone background helps make the window and the thanks show up better.
I embellished the windows with watercolored flowers that I diecut. The thanks is a stacked diecut with metallic gold cardstock on the top. I finished the design with a few gold open leaf diecuts. I really like the way this one turned out.
