I resized the card to fit a 6" square card with a narrow border, then printed two copies of the topper and one of the insert on matte photo paper.
I attached the insert and one base image with dst, then cut the frame portion with the major parts of the floral design attached out of the second topper copy and also cut the scene out of the center.
I taped a piece of acetate securely behind the opening then completely enclosed the opening with foam tape and added pieces of foam tape under the floral portion.
I put some crystal bugle beads and micro beads in the center of the scene and carefully lowered the frame over it to make a shaker card.
Before adding the decoupage with silicone gel, I glued bits of gold decoration, similar to that in the design, around the flowers.
Added the sentiment with silicone and glued a bit of lace in the upper right corner. Truly a stunning design and very elegant.
With this design I first printed it out onto photo paper, then after cutting out all the elements, I placed the design base onto the front of 8x8 card, I then placed around the outside edges, a gold ornate border, to finish my card I made up the design using 2mm sticky pads and I placed the sentiment at the top right, this is a wonderful design for Christmas, was very easy to cut and make up and is stunning once done
