Shake It to the Left, Shake it to the Right...

Shake, it, shake it, shake it!! I officially made my very first Shaker card!! Here is is in all it's glittery glory! it really was fun making it!
This was made as this weeks sample card for Stampin' Royalty.
I used a lot of retired items, and a few current/new things as well, but the retired items are very easily substituted.
The only thing that might need a little explanation as to how i did it is the shaker portion.
I actually used a piece from a retired kit for the scalloped circle, but you can use your largest scallop circle punch, just be sure to punch the center out first THEN the scallop circle. I actually recycled a clear plastic piece from some packaging, or you can use window sheets.
After stamping my image and coloring it, i put the ultra fabulous Shaker Frames on top of that first, so there is a place to put all the fun Micah flakes, glitter and beads! Then i put the clear sheet and paper frame on top of that. then you put the whole thing on your card!

Here is the breakdown of supplies!
