A-MUSEd Smooching Sequins Super Shaker...

Couldn't resist playing along with Lynn's gorgeous MUSE card this week - just squeaked in though! Taking inspiration from the blue background and white frame I created a Super Shaker, based on Lil Inkers Stitched Polaroid die cut, and added these cute star sequins, from the bargain bin at my local craft outlet. These paper pieced stamps are from Paper Smooches Super. My first attempt at a shaker card, and it was surprisingly easy. First cut some left over clear packaging to size for the window and glued into place with Helmar 450, added foam double-sided tape around the back of the polaroid frame, lined with a super thin strip of cardstock, to help stop the sequins from sticking to the insides of the frame, then added a backing piece the same size as the frame - if you haven't already you should try it, you might like it LOL!

Playing along with Paper Smooches Sparks Trend Watch Sheer & Clear Challenge with the clear shaker cover and sheer sequins, Catered Crops Sequins Challenge, Seize the Birthday Anything Goes Birthday Challenge, Moxie Fab Birthday Card ChallengeKeep It Simple Birthday Challenge, and last but definitely not least, Die Cuttin Divas Anything Goes.
