Dragonfly Shaker Centerpiece

I have another shaker card featuring Heartfelt Creations Decorative Dragonfly to share with you today. This time the shaker is a window looking through to the sentiment on the inside of the card. I love the blue and purple tones on the front that contrasts with the vibrant green on the inside.
