Details
I did it!! I created a shaker card that I am finally happy with!! YAY me! LOL I LOVE the look and feel of shaker cards, but have always been a bit intimidated by them. My first several attempts were not successful. When I finally made one that turned out pretty good, I had used a fine glitter and there was a leak in the adhesive around the glitter…. so it would seep out whenever I would shake the card. Lesson learned… don’t use fine glitter!
To create this card, I used the Birthday Delivery Bundle for my images along with the Sweet Little Something stamp set for my sentiment. To create the window, I used my Lots of Labels Framelits Dies. The sequins used are from the Iridescent Sequin Assortment in the Annual catalog. LOVE them!! My Stampin’ Blends Markers of choice to color in my little girls and balloons are the following: Light & Dark Pool Party, Light Daffodil Delight, Dark Pink Pirouette, Light Crumb Cake, Light Smoky Slate, Light Old Olive, Ivory, Bronze, and the Color Lifter. WHEW!! Last but NOT least… or most importantly, I used Clear Wink of Stella to brush a little shimmer onto the balloons.

Jen, I love your shaker card. I am glad I am not the only crafter that has had problems with shaker cards. A lady has just given my a box full of sequins so I thought it might be nice to send her a ‘Thank You’ card which is a shaker to show her that I am going to be able to use them, but as I said in the comment on the You Tube channel I have normally avoided shaker cards. I will have another go, you have given me the confidence to do so. :O)
Jen says
Thank you Lorraine! Oh my goodness! I LOVE them, yet I have the hardest time making them! YES! That would be an AWESOME idea to send her a card using the sequins she gave you. WOO HOO!! Have fun making it! I bet it won’t be your last.
