Yet another shaker card

Hey all!!!
I think i am bitten by the shaker bug! I am here today with yet another shaker card to share. Here you go!


I created the central shaker element by die cutting two concentric circles out of 10 CS to give the height and glued them together. I cut out a piece of glitter sheet using the same method and embellished the top. 
For the shaker I added pink and silver seed beads along with some brown sequins and sealed it using a clear pocket. 

The base of the card is simply put together using a piece of pattern paper along with the shaker. 

I love making flowers and these two flowers are handmade. I colored them using Distress inks and crunched them up a bit to break the fibres in the paper and give a shabby look. Finished the card with a gold glitter border and a simple sentiment "With Love"

Here is a close up of the shaker card!




Here is my previous attempt at a shaker card.
