Sunny Studio - Cherry Blossoms in Paris Shaker Card

Hi there,

Today I'm featuring the gorgeous Cherry Blossoms stamp set on a pretty and elegant shaker card. I started off by stamping all the flowers, and to help me in this task, I followed the numbers on the stamp set, as well as the guide on the Cherry Blossoms page.

I used distress oxide inks to create the flowers: spun sugar, worn lipstick, festive berries and aged mahogany, and Lawn Fawn inks for the stems. Feel welcome to check the video below to watch the whole layering process.

Once all the flowers were done, I moved on to the background. I cut a 5,5 x 4,25" panel out of a raspberry pink cardstock and I added details and texture on this plain panel using the Quilted heart portrait die. And then I attached my panel on a white panel.

Next I created the shaker. I used the second Stitched arch die to cut a window out of my panel. I applied liquid glue at the back, attached a piece of acetate, and next I added foam strips at the back of the panel, as well as all around the arch window.

I added sequins and jewels inside the window, and attached a light pink panel on the foam strips to totally close the shaker panel. Next I cut the Eiffel tower using the coordinating die from Paris afternoon and attached it in the middle of the arch window using foam squares, and stuck flowers at the bottom of the arch.

I added more flowers at the top on each side of the arch window, and for my sentiment, I die cut a red banner using a die from Stitched rectangles, and white heat embossed the phrase "Thinking of you" from Critters on the go. I tucked the banner under the flowers at the bottom, and finally I added a few clear jewels here and there for an extra touch of shine.
