I'm celebrating today with a summer birthday shaker card....
stamped and die cut the ice cream cones (double layer stamping) and added stickles for sparkle, die cut the opening in my top layer of cs, attached acetate to the back of it, and stamped "birthday wishes". Embossed the negative circle of the top cs and adhered to card front. Attached dimensional tape to the card front, and placed a bunch of sequins where the opening was going to be. (I always glue a few in random places, so there are always some showing.) Attached the stamped layer over the card front, keeping the sequins in place.
Die cut the word sweet and sponged it to match cones, adhered to card front, covered with WOS, and then covered with glossy accents to give it depth and shine. Fun summer card!

This is really a cool card. I love the shaker and the yummy ice cream cones. It was a hot day here and those would have made a good cool down snack. The colors are beautiful.
