Stampin' Fancy Friday - Shaking It Challenge

I played around with the beautiful Peaceful Poppies Suite. I made a watercolor piece using the Pigment Sprinkles in Melon Mambo and Mango Melody, which turns into a pretty coral-red shade. I cut out the patterned die twice to cover the panel. I used the Peaceful Poppies Sequins and the Foam Adhesive Strips to build my shaker piece with. I also backed it with Vellum Cardstock, which makes the sequins inside stand out a bit more.

I decided to start with the Shine Bright Bundle again and the Wrapped In Plaid 6" X 6" Specialty Designer Series Paper with golf foil accents. I love plaid paper!
