Online Card Class - day 8

Today's Online Card Class has a video from Cathy Zielske showing how to make a simple shaker window with a word die, and then use the leftover letters on a second card. This is what I came up with: 

I used word dies from Hello Bluebird to cut a panel that I had coloured with Distress Oxide inks and then sprayed with Perfect Pearls in water. I used sequins from Brittney Lee. I added some faux stitching lines as a finishing touch.

For the second card, I adhered the leftover letters onto a white panel, then matted that onto a piece of navy cardstock, and then a blue cardbase (Stampin' Up Ballet Blue - years later, I am still annoyed they discontinued this colour!) I stamped a background stamp from Hero Arts (Flower Dot Pattern, my favourite stamp of all time, sadly discontinued) onto the cardbase using Ballet Blue ink from SU.
