Hello! You should have arrived from Shar's Blog, if not, head HERE to start at the beginning. For my card I used the fabulous new Rectangular Stitched Frames And More dies to create my shaker. I used the biggest and smallest die to make my shaker window. For my inside panel I used the leaf dies from the new A Thankful Heart set to do some inlaid die cutting. I did them inlaid because they need to lay flat/flush so the sequins can shake. :)
I colored the leaves with Picked Raspberry, Festive Berries, Seedless Preserves, and Dusty Concord Distress Inks. I got super messy. ;) After they dried, I sprinkled on some Gold Lame color shine mist by Heidi Swapp. I gold heat embossed the greeting with the new Something To Be Thankful For stamp {which is FREE for the first 150 shoppers}. I filled my window with sequins and called it done.
