My Creative Time Designer Challenge -- Photo Inspiration

Another challenge is taking place over at My Creative Time for me.com  The challenge is another photo inspiration taken from this photo
 
You can either use the picture to gain inspiration, the color scheme or you can use both.  I decided to use alittle of both. 


 
I decided to make a shaker card.  I have never done one of these before but have watched countless youtube tutorials and see many blog posts.
 
I took the smaller jar from the Stitched Chunky Jar Dies and die cut it using my cuttlebug into some Kraft Cardstock from Paper Trey Ink.  I then used some clear cardstock for my window.  The lid of the jar was cut using some silver cardstock and I inked it with Fog Ink from Mama Elephant and used some clear wink of stella.
 
I anchored the jar using a stamp from Shadows by Paper Smooches with some momento tuxedo black ink
 
Inside the jar I used some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.  The colors are 4mm Sparkling Clear, Lemon Drop, and Marigold
 
I then took some green cardstock and die cut my Hello from the Lowercase Fun Dies and the Uppercase Fun Dies
 
Lastly I added a couple butterflies from the Chunky Jar Accessories Stamps and Dies
 
I hope you enjoy seeing what I had to create and please head over to the My Creative Time For Me blog to see what others have created and to also play along.
