I started by die cutting the shell into a white panel of cardstock. I used Simon Says Stamp Rosie Cheeks ink to color the shell pieces that sit on the inside panel of the shaker and also used it with the Brush Stroke Waves stencil to create a light pattern on my card front panel.

From there I went about creating the shaker portion of the card by adding acetate behind the window, using foam tape and shaker contents, then sealing the back panel in place. I stamped and colored all the Mermaid pieces along with the message and added them to the card front.

I’ve filmed a video to show how I created this card. You can view it below or on our YouTube channel HERE.

Join in on the hop!! Your next stop is to my friend Amy Kolling.
