The new challenge at Dies R Us is making a die cut sentiment the focal image. I decided to make a shaker window for the Cheery Lynn Your Are Awesome die.
I used the smooshing technique with water and distress inks. Then I die cut the panel with the Frantic Stamper Chevron Die. The great thing about this die is the other half can be used on another project. I followed the usual steps for a shaker card then adhered that to a 5 1/2 by 4 1/4 Swiss dot embossed panel. That was attached to an A2 card base. I shaped and sponged the flowers from Cheery Lynn Floral Bouquet and placed them on some leaves.
The Dies R Us team has some fabulous inspiration for you on the Dies R Us Challenge Blog .
