Beautiful Bouquet: Dahlia Shaker Card with Joni

Hello Everyone, Joni here , and today is also the day we've all been waiting for - April 2016 Release Day - Yay!!! Everything that we've been previewing is now available for purchase at wplus9.com, as well as at many of your favorite retailers.

So remember, if something is sold out in the store, you should be able to find it at one of the retailers.

Today I'm sharing a card using the new Beautiful Bouquets: Dahlia, Sending Hoping Wishing stamp sets and Sending Hoping Wishing Words die.

To begin, I first stamped the large bouquet of Dahlias repeatedly around the perimeter of my panel using PURE COLOR dye ink in Old Gold using the second generation stamping technique. I then watercolored the images using the ZIG Clear Color Real Brush 60 pack.

To create a "window" opening for my shaker card, I fussy cut the middle of the panel. For the sentiment, I die-cut "sending" from Sending Hoping Wishing Words die five times and adhered one on top of the other for a thicker chipboard-like effect. The other panel was distressed in the middle using Distress inks. To create the water spots, I just splattered it with water.

I also stamped the center with the "happy thoughts" sentiment from the Sending Hoping Wishing stamp set using PURE COLOR dye ink in Old Gold. I filled shaker with sequins from Pretty Pink Posh in Lemon Drop and Sparkling Clear.

I really hope that you enjoyed today's card! And in case you missed it, here is a quick recap of all of the new products now available.
