I combined two challenges today, because I got my inspiration from both places. First I browsed Betty's amazing gallery..These are not just cards, but artistic creations. I chose this card because it had a shaker box which I've never done before. Smile! by gbedwright at Splitcoaststampers
I then took the inspiration from this site.... http://www.victoriantradingco.com/st...1a/i20170.html
Anne gave us a wonderful site. So many pretty items.
I made a Mother's day card. I started by using the tutorial from this site for a shaker box. I stamped my sentiment and added a ribbon for the book. I added some glitter and fine silver beads. I then made the flower using nesties. I added the ribbon. Thanks for all the inspiration, and Betty enjoy your reign. tfl

So elegant, Linda, and the silver beads are just perfect....I've never made a shaker card, if I thought they'd turn out as lovely as this, I'd have made the effort before now - beautiful!
