Thanks so much to Julie Gearinger and Judy (StampingQueenJar) for their wonderful DTGD15 challenges!
First, I watercolored the background and when it was completely dry I stamped and embossed the bg. stamp. I diecut a piece of Fun Foam and cardstock with a heart die. I ran the Fun Foam through my Xyron on both sides. I put the pieces together along with the clear acrylic panel and added the sequins. I think the next time I do a shaker card I will skip the Fun Foam and just use a few layers of cardstock and an ATG glue gun because the sequins want to stick to the side. It does shake the sequins around but not as much as I hoped. I had put some powder around the insides of the heart but I guess the Xyron is just too sticky.
Thanks so much for looking! I hope my card helps to inspire you to create a card.

Oh, Cindy, what a beautiful and fun card! Perfect for an engagement, and I love the gold-embossed background in your heart with the sequins in your shaker. Beautifully done, and I love it! You're really coming up to the finish line!! Hope you've had a wonderful time! Hugs!
