Step. 1 - I started by tracing the butterfly onto some light pink cardstock. I then trimmed the butterfly and adhered it to the base of the shaker

Step. 2 - I painted the top lahyer of the shaker with Distress Oxide paint in Picked Raspberry. 

Step. 3 While my paint dried I assembled the rest of the card. I adhered the cardstock and pattern paper onto my card base.

Step. 4 - shaker assembly - is super easy with Clear Scrap because no foam tape is needed.  

You start by adhering the 2 inner piece together I put an acrylic block in them while they dry.

Next I remove the film on both sides of the acetate that comes with your shaker.

I put a bit of Bearly Art glue of the back side of the painted butterfly and place the acetate on it.

If you get a bit of glue oozing just use a lightly damp paper towel and clean it up.

Next you adhere the 2 glued inner piece onto the bottom of the shaker. Fill it with shaker mix of your choice.  The adhere the top painted layer. 

Step. 5 - Adhere the shakr onto the card front and stamp your sentiment.

I used some tall foam tabs to adhere my sentiment.

Now, the card is complete!

This project came together pretty quickly. 

Step. 1 -  I started by painting the base in black. I painted both pieces avoiding the center of the bottom layer of the base. * no need to paint it since it won't be seen* Set aside to dry.

Step. 2 -  I traced the frame onto the back of the pattern paper. Next I trimmed it out and set it aside. I painted the frame pieces with red paint. *Note- I didn't paint the insides of the frame pieces.

Step 3. - Once the frame pieces were dry I adhered the paper frame onto the front of the frame with some Mod Podge paper adhesive. *TIP: the paper version of this adheseive is low water content to avoid buckling* I used it on the front of the frame as well to seal the paper.

Step. 4 - I masked the bottom half of the mouse head to create the iconic look. I painted the top half with black paint. 

Next, Once the top was dry.  I maksed the top half  and painted the bottom half with red paint.

Once the head was dry I adhered 2 buttons to the red half with some glue spots.

Next, I painted the word Magical with some white paint.

Step. 5 - I adhered the base using wood glue & placed some heavy blocks on top of them to let them set.

Step. 6 - I assembled the frame. I started by putting some strong adhesive on the back of the face o fthe frame. I then placed the acetate onto the strong adhesive. 

Next, I added some black foam tape on top of the acetate in a U shape. So, that I could insert my photo later. I removed the back paper and add some strong liner tape on top of the faom tape and place the onto the back piece. 

here is what the side and top of the frame looks like.

Step. 7 - I gather all my pieces and did a dry fit of the frame, mouse head and word.  Once I like the place I remove each piece add a bit of wood glue and set in place.

Now, the Magical frame is complete!
