Be Mine - Shabby chic Handmade card

Hello everyone
I am sharing a new card I made for The Valentine's Day with you all today. I love making Shabby chic projects and cards are fun to make. I love playing with flowers and sequins and so I came up with this card.
This is a shaker card filled with sequins and glitter mix in the tones of red, pin and gold. The heart shaped shaker window is a embellished with pretty flowers and buds and a few flourishes.
 I finished it all with a white ribbon bow onto the side and few gold sequins sprinkled here and there.
The card has a gold heat embossed sentiment BE MINE which I think makes it a cool Proposal card...what do you think?

Be Mine - Handmade card using ItsyBitsy dies.

Hello guys
I am back today with a new shaker card. Shaker cards have always been my favorite and are super fun to make. I have made this one keep Valentine's Day in mind and this one I have made for my husband. I truly hope he likes this one..

So to begin, I started with a 4 1/4" by 51/2" standard A2 size card for the base. I have used white cardstock from Itsybitsy. They had sent me this in a free haul some time back.I had used it earlier to make some tags and this time I used it to make a card. i must say that the quality is really good.
I cut the 3 hearts  on a 41/4" by 51/2" white cardstock piece using ItsyBitsy nesting hearts dies through my Sizzix Bigshot. The die set has 4 hearts and I have used the smaller 3 dies.
I added a little red hearts confetti sequins, clear white sequins and some gold sequins as my shaker elements.
I have used some foam adhesive and clear acetate sheet to create my shaker window. Once my shaker card was ready, I added some splatters using Memento Ladybug dye ink o the card front. to add more details, I made some dots with my red gel pen.
Embellished my card using some clear sequins and 3 red die cut hearts right in the center of the shaker panels. The sentiment "Be Mine" is stamped on vellum using Tinsel Gold embossing powder by Ranger.
For the inside, I just matted the card using Red cardstock and layered some red and whte die cut hearts.
That finished my card....all I need to do is write a message and make a cute envelope for this card. Can't wait to hand it over to my husband when he comes home....
Thank you guys for reading this post and until next time....Keep Crafting.
