Batanica Frame
by Marybeth Lopez

Hello again!  Welcome to the Blog Blitz! The design team is showcasing some of the new products from the Poppystamps

release, you have a chance to win just by leaving a comment, the more you comment the better your chance!

 Oh my goodness so many new goodies! I chose to use this new Batanica Frame, but I kinda used the negative. It makes a very light and airy shaker card.

One random commenter has a chance to win this Batanica Fame die.

I used distress inks to watercolor some watercolor paper , when dry I cut the Majestic Maple leaf out.

That leaf die is so pretty, I just wanted one on my card it can stand alone. I used spray adhesive on the

frame then adhered to the acetate .

I added some thin foam tape around the edge of the frame and a thin piece of acetate then filled with a 

mix of sequins. Remember this is the negative of the die.

If you would like a chance to win this  Batanica Frame die just leave a comment!

  2. That’s what I love about these Blog Blitz inspiration posts, I never would have thought to use the Botanica Frame for a shaker card. It looks amazing.

  3. Utter simplicity (not to make, but not fussy looking)! You knocked this one out of the park by making the border into a shaker card. It doubles the effect by casting all those shadows below.
    A fall leaf would have never occurred to me, and yet it is stunning with the foliage surrounding it. Your beautiful green and bluish leaf is the perfect foil for all that white. You just always knock my socks off, Marybeth.

  4. Very elegant shaker, love it! Can’t believe this is the negative; so pretty.

  5. I adore shaker cards and would love to have a chance to win this so I could make them.
