Pretty Shaker Card

I had SO much fun making my last shaker card project that I just had to create another one. I attached some sequins to a piece of vellum behind a chipboard frame.  The patterned papers I used are Crate Paper, and I also used some vintage sheet music, machine stitching, and some pink and black baker's twine.
At the bottom left, I made a flower that included a wool felt stem cut from a Papertrey Ink die-cut, some Prima lace, and a pink button with DMC floss run through the center.  The (happy) sentiment is a tag from Heidi Swapp.  That's about it.   You will have SO much fun with these gorgeous sequin mixes.....they're the sweetest!

I'm entering my card in this fun Shaker Card challenge:

Blessings to you all for a happy weekend!

  3. Just beautiful. The patterns are so complementary and the vellum pocket is so original... I've not seen that!
