I just couldn't stay away from this challenge after I saw all the incredibly inventive shaker cards everyone has been making. I'm suppose to be cleaning and getting ready for a cookout I'm hosting tomorrow....oh well I'm hoping people remember good times and not a little dust! I used a Unity stamp and stamped a portion of it. I masked off some of the raindrops by using washi tape and then removed that before stamping. I cut around that with an exacto knife, colored and make the shaker portion. I decided it needed something else so I cut a corner leafy die out of polka dot paper for an accent. Thanks for a super fun challenge Audrie!

This is so cute, Polly. Just sit your card out and your guests will be so busy looking at it they won't notice a little dust! Adorable card and your knife cutting is great!

Oh, Polly, this is amazing and truly so whimsical and relaxing! And you are the Queen of Fussy Cutting! I love the fine detail right down to the strands of her hair! What a sweet shaker card. I so love Phyllis Harris' work, and you've done her proud! Love it! Hugs, sweet friend!

This is super inventive and fabulous! I know what you mean about this challenge getting into your mind - I have a bunch of ideas but no time to do them! Life is short - go for the fun parts not the dirty ones - that is my motto anyway. LOL! Hugz
