The Paper Shelter
Prize- 3 Digital Stamps

I created a set of shaker cards for this challenge using Leprechaun from The Paper Shelter.

I imported the image to my software and created a panel with the image and a panel with an outline of the image, to create a window for the shaker.  

I used my Silhouette machine to cut out the outline (to a make a shaker window) and to draw a gold outline.  Then I cut the panel with MFT's Stax Rectangle Dies.  I love the interest that the outline and die give to the panel.  The shaker I added some beads from my stash that I bought from Simon Says Stamps years ago.  

I stamped a green card base with a retired Peachy Keen Shamrock background stamp in a matching green ink.  

For the inside I created another panel with the Leprechaun, but reduced the opacity.  And I used the same rectangle die to match the front panel.
