I followed the sketch layout as closely as possible when creating this fun, watery shaker card.  For the inked background, I blended some Broken China, Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon, and Seedless Preserves Distress Inks.  I spritzed this panel lightly with water and blotted it dry with a paper towel.

I stamped all of my images with Copic Friendly Black Ink, colored with Copics and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

Colors Used:
Browns: E30, E31, E23, E25, E29, E47
Oranges: YR00, YR04, YR07, E34

 For my stitched circle around the center circle, I simply used the Inside & Out Stitched Circle Die-namics to cut out a stitched circle, and one of the Circle Die-namics to make it into a frame with a skinny, single stitch.  Prior to adding my frame, I added a strip of patterned paper from the Fresh Squeezed Chevron Paper Pad.

I added some 3D Foam Adhesive Tape to the back of my front panel so that the card could hold my sequin embellishments.  Lastly, I stamped the sentiment with Black Ink across the front.
