After cutting the paper layers, I stamped and heat embossed the Soft Sky with raindrops, using the SU "Weather Together" stamp set, and white embossing powder. I cut all my die-cut elements to prepare and make my shaker background and shaker frame, as well as scalloped the bottom edge of the Soft Sky raindrop layer into a "V," using a border edge die.
Once my card layers and the shaker were assembled, I sized and printed my digital fox, and finished him with Copic coloring. I popped him up on the tree stump and then popped tree stump as well. Next, I stamped and die-cut layers for my sentiment. It was lots of fun to make this one!
