You Are Beautiful Shaker

Fun shaker card made for the Come and Get It Anything Goes with a Sentiment Challenge. I used a Next Generation embossing folder for the hearts, then a distress ink tool to add distress in cracked pistachio to tge bacground and a piece of white cardstock around the edges for a matching layer.  Dark green cardstock is GKD and so is the fine detail white embossing powder.  Sentiment is so sweet and from Hero Arts.  Used fuse tool to make shaker filled with Martha Stewart tiny heats glitter.  Behind the heart is a small white panel that I stamped little starbursts in the same color ink.  Used dark green fun foam to pop up the shaker layer. I really like the way this turned out!  I will send it to a special person!
