Hello!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I have a fun Happy Birthday shaker card to share with you, using some of the new Spring Release! Shaker cards can take a bit longer to make than a regular card, but make a great gift for someone special.
I started by taking the Stitched Happy Birthday Rectangle, and cut if from white card stock. I then took a few Copic markers, and colored in the letters. I adhered a piece of acetate to the back, and a generous amount of foam tape, before sprinkling in a sequin mix. I then adhered another piece of acetate to hold all of the bits inside.
I set the shaker piece aside, and using the Straight Stitches die, ran my card base through repeatedly, creating a patter on the left hand side. I then adhered the shaker box! Now, shake, shake, shake! So fun!
Thanks so much for joining me today! Have a great, and crafty day!
LOVE this design and I have to have those dies....[sadly they don't arrive in Australia until they dies are no longer 'new'...}
Sure makes an awesome shaker card.x {aNNie}

Loooovvvveeee your card. I made a lot of shaker tags at Christmas and once I got on a roll, they went pretty fast.
The dies you used are wonderful....very pretty stitched application.
Applause....

The shaker card is wonderful. Like the idea of added stitches on the side. Not seen the straight stitches die before.
