A die and a punch

'Use more than one die or punch'

I have been having a bit of fun with mu cuttlebug lately and this is one of the cards that I made.

Lucky stars

Simon says stamp blog. Monday challenge

 

is to use some lucky stars.
I made this card for our God Daughter.

 

 It's the quick cousin of a shaker card. The sequins move but not as freely as in the real deal. First I did the stamping, then I made a little mound of sequins and stars. I carefully laid the vellum star over them and then holding everything as straight as possible I machine stitched around the star. To complete I added the sentiment and a couple of sequins.
