Hello and welcome to my blog. We’re CASEing from the July 2026 Online Exclusives, there’s so much to choose from I had a hard time deciding what to CASE. You may have hopped over from Julia’s blog, make sure you visit all the Design Team’s Blogs by clicking on the “next” button at the bottom of the post.
I’m using the Online Exclusive Botanical Expressions Die which is part of the Botanical Expressions Bundle.
I loved this card so much I’ve almost CASEd it 100% the same as the sample card.
My version of the card is slightly different but I just love how easy this shaker card is to make.
I cut a piece of Basic White to the same size as a card front then ran it through my Cut N Emboss Machine with the Botanical Expressions Die. The Botanical Expressions Die cuts a leafy window that adds depth and interest to the card design. Next I used a Blending Brush with some Lost Lagoon, Old Olive and Garden Green ink and coloured the Basic White under the leaves. I created the “splotches” with my Water Painter. I also die cut the leaves in Old Olive then overlayed some of the white leaves with Old Olive leaves.
To create the “shaker” element I cut down a clear cello bag to fit behind the die cut leaves and filled it with some retired Loose Gold Sequins then adhered it behind the die cut leaves, so simple. I’ve added some Baker’s Twine and a sentiment from the Phrases & Frames stamp set.
Marvi was “helping” me in my craft room today. When I say “helping” I really mean playing with the twine and basically knocking everything on my desk onto the floor. He did stop causing chaos long enough for a photo with my card.

Lovely CASE, Peta. I do like the brighter greens in your card.
Marvi is looking very handsome!
