Gather your supplies:
I used my Tropicool Vibes paper, Birds of a Feather dies/stamps, Photo Frame, I Am Phrases dies/stamps, Sizzix foam sheet adhesive, Sizzix SideKick machine, sequins by Craft Medley, white cardstock, scraps of green and aqua cardstock, clear acetate for the window, StazOn black ink and various adhesives.
Trim a piece of the Tropicool Vibes paper to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and adhere it to the front of a folded piece of white cardstock measuring 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ folded.
Die cut the Picture This frame out of the aqua cardstock. The small frames work perfectly with the Sizzix SideKick machine.
Cut a piece of clear acetate to fit behind the frame window. Use liquid adhesive to adhere the window to the back side of the frame window.
Adhere strips of the Sizzix foam adhesive around the back side of the window. Apply a light dusting of baby powder along the inside edges of the foam adhesive to keep the sequins from sticking to the edges.
Pour a small amount of sequins onto the center of the card front and adhere the frame around the sequins to hold them in place.
Die cut three each of the monstera leaves and palm fronds from scraps of green cardstock.
Stamp the phrase from the Photo Frame, I Am set onto light aqua cardstock. Stamp the flamingos onto white cardstock and color.
Die cut the flamingos from the Birds of a Feather set and the phrase from the Photo Frame, I Am set.
Begin adhering the leaves at the top and bottom of the frame.
Adhere the flamingos.
Add some foam adhesive behind the phrase shape and adhere.
Share a simple sentiment and shake up some fun!
