Inside View
- for the inside I dusted a shimmer paint around the edges and added my sewing.
Decorating front of card
For the front of my card I chose to use The Robins Nest Orange and Gold dew drops. I used the orange diamond shaped dew drops for all the corners, and then the gold dew drops for the shutters.
I love the shaker window and thought it would be super fun to add dew drops inside. I added some dew drops in yellow, green, orange, and gold to the inside of the window.
Of course I love adding the dew drops to the corners as it gives them some embellishing. On this card here I chose orange dew drops.
Lastly I added lots of flowers, and some ribbon, In the close up photo you will see some green diamond shaped dew drops in with the flowers.
