    Allison was nice enough to give us 2 plastic sheets so we have more options. You may need to play with one or the other to get the look you want on say a light background compared to a dark background.

    It's not required to use the provided freebie as the cover. It's just offered as a courtesy to help you in making a shaker box. :agree

    Thanks so much! I finally worked out something last night that I could recreate using a mask and different layers. I've used masks - and groups - before, but starting with my own "shape" (I modified a puffy sticker into a mask base) probably overcomplicated what I was doing.

    I'm going to go watch the video now. Thank you!

    I tried to make it look like something a little boy might have in his pocket.

    the darker the background on your shadow box the better the markings show.

    I couldn't get my plastic sheet to show the depth I wanted, but I tried. It is there. . . 2 layers actually :)

    Yes, light backgrounds are tricky but your shaker still turned out beautifully.

    Thank you so much. I tried a darker background but it just didn’t work. I really enjoyed this challenge, not something I would think of doing on my own.

    Thanks for the fun challenge - I have never done anything like this before! I got the plastic as wrinkly as I could manage with Artisan - I inverted, played with opacity, but it's still hard to see. I promise it's there.
