And here's the card I made using the sketch:
I had an urge to make a purple card so splashed some purple watercolor paints onto a piece of watercolor paper and left it to dry. Once it was dry, I went over it with white ink and a a circle template to give the bokeh look. I had the card all ready to stick together when I had the idea to make a shaker card, so out came the sequins.
I also went over the bokeh panel with some Perfect Pearls which gives it a lovely shimmer. The sentiment is white embossed and the inside of the builder brad is an offcut from the bokeh panel.
