I don't have a circus tent or clown image, but I have this fun ferris wheel & the tent in front of it looks like a circus tent
For my Ferris Wheel shaker card, I put the image in my Misti, stamped w/ Memento, colored w/ Copics then over stamped w/ Versafine. I die cut the entire panel w/ one of the matting basics, then used a stitched rectangle die for the inside. I had to do a little into the window around the ferris wheel by determining which areas to trim around & lift above the die to keep from cutting them off. I used a clear envelope for the shaker part..sprinkled a tiny bit of glitter & added the sequins, then taped the edges shut & attached it behind the opening. I put the cut off bg back behind the ferris wheel, added some foam tape all around the edges, then attached it to a slightly larger cobalt blue layer then to a larger layer stamped w/ the lt blue ink & ink spot image.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & Copic colors are on my blog:The Write Stuff

Oh, I think this is perfect - the sideshows were always part of the old traditional circuses! And I love all the sequins in the shaker. This most of all reminds me of a beloved jigsaw I had of a fairground - I got it for my 5th birthday when I was in hospital, and it was just these fun bright colours.

Wow, Julie your card is fabulous! Love how you turned that cute image into a shaker card. Great coloring, of course, and the sequin balloons are such a great touch.
