JustRite Papercraft - You are in My Thoughts Shaker Card

Hello Friends,
I had so much fun creating this shaker card with the new die sets from JustRite Papercraft. For the window I used Four in a Square Dies, for the flowers I used Floral Trio Two Dies and for the swirls under the flowers I used Vintage Labels Ten Dies.

I started by creating a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" card base with designer paper. The next layer was cut to 5 1/4" x 5 1/4". 

I die cut the shaker window with Four in a Square Dies and designer cardstock. I also used acetate and foam tape to create the shaker and some sequence and micro-beads. 

The flowers were die cut with Floral Trio Two Dies and designer paper. I colored the edges of the flowers with distress inks and adhered to card with hot glue. The swirls were die cut with Vintage Labels Ten Dies and glued under flowers as pictured. I embellished center of flowers with Nuvo Crystal Drops in Gloss White.

For the sentiment I used Meadow Circles Clear Stamps and black ink.

Supplies:

JustRite Papercraft: Meadow Circles Clear Stamps, Four in a Square Dies, Floral Trio Two Dies, Vintage Labels Ten Dies.
Other Supplies: Neena Papers Natural White Cardstock, Prima Marketing Firefly Paper Collection, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, Tonic Studios Nuvo Crystal Drops in Gloss White, Foam Tape, Clear Acetate Sheet, Sequence and Micro-Beads, Distress Inks.
