MCT Try me Tuesday!!!

 
 
Hi My Friendly Bloggers!
Today is MCT Try me Tuesday!!!
For this week we are to use a die – any of Emma’s dies – in a way that is unexpected, that is not
 its intended use. For example, use an oval for a leaf, a circle for a pumpkin…

I decided to make a shaker card, with all of the BEAUTIFUL shaker projects that the MCT sisters are making, I got inspired!!! The first die that is used in a different way is the snow flake from
Winter Flake Dies, I used it as a flower and added it to the Flower Petal Dies and the Stitched Doily Die  is the base of my shaker, that is different too. So I cut two Doilies and cut the circle part out of one of them and added some Microbeads!!!! The Medium Stitched Scalloped Bow Die  is also used a different way, and I added some stamping on the bow from the I'm A Lucky Girl! Stamp Set, the sentiment is from Treasured Moments Stamp Set and the cute little butterfly is from All Around Holidays Stamp Set.
Hope you like my take on a shaker card!!!!




Supplies I Used for my Card:
I'm A Lucky Girl! Stamp Set (for the stamp on the bow die)
Flower Petal Dies
Medium Stitched Scalloped Bow Die
4x4 Journal Die + More (for the 4x4 die)
Stitched Doily Die
Winter Flake Dies
All Around Holidays Stamp Set (butterfly)
Treasured Moments Stamp Set
Microbeads
 
Thank you for stopping by and hope you have a great week!!!:)

I think this may be the first shaker using the doily die. You used a lot of things differently. Great job on the flower...so clever. Love it!
