Best Tips for successful Shaker Cards with video tutorial!


Who wouldn't like to receive a shaker card?!  They're fun, shakable and hard to resist playing with. 

I made a bunch of these for our July Team card swap featuring 'window sheets'. I love the fact that I could get multiple, colorful die-cut flowers with the Extraordinary Floral Washi Tape and the coordinating die-cut. Just add it to another piece of cardstock and die-cut. So fast & EASY! 

Notice the sponged green designer paper above. That is the Irresistible Designs 12" DSP seen here.  I added Olive ink to it with a Blending Brush; the printed embossed designs 'resist' the ink.  Pretty cool! 

I used the Paper Tags stamp set – stamping the greeting directly onto the window sheet with Black Stazon ink. Then I turned it over to add a bit of Flirty Flamingo blends marker on the 'celebrate' part.  

My colors include Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive and White for a fresh floral card design. Want to know the steps to achieve a shaker card?  Best to grab the free project sheet below or watch the video tutorial.

  • Delicate Lace Edgelits; marked down & on sale!


    I am shocked at the price of the Delicate Lace Edgelit dies on the Last Chance list.  They are marked down from $29 to $11.60 right now.  I've used them a ton; in fact one of our Club cards features them this month.  

    Here are some examples of how amazing these edgelit dies are. 

    **This stamp set and floral dies are retired – just look at the edglit! 

    You might wonder about the card above.  It was made at one of my Technique classes.  The tissue paper was colored with Pigment Sprinkles, dried and adhered loosely to card stock.  Then swipe Versamark over it and heat emboss with Gold powder. 

    You can see them online here.

  • Follow Your Art – more easy Double Wonder cards


    I made another group of cards using the Double Wonder template. These are so quick and easy to make and the measuring sure isn't much when you consider it makes 11 cards!  

    You start out with two pieces of 6" X 12" designer series paper. It does need to be double sided.

    Download the template & directions here. Download Double Wonder cards & template

    I chose to use the Follow your Art designer paper.  It will be perfect for all of my crafty friends and customers.  Did you know it's on sale right now?  It's just $4.60 instead of $11.50 right now?  It's on the Last Chance list here.  There are so many amazing deals right now! 

    I'll show you each set of cards separately.  First up is Layout 1.  It's fun to mix and match the pieces of designer paper cut from the template. With double sided paper you get quite a few options.   

    Next is Layout 2 using two 1" strips of DSP on each card.  You can jazz them up as much as you want; I kept them fairly simple using punches and die-cuts in my scraps. 

    Lastly is Layout 3 and the bonus card on the right. 

    I used the Crafting Forever stamp set (retiring) and just a few colors of ink; Pacific Point, Blushing Bride and Crushed Curry for sponging.  I did use the Crushed Curry ribbon on many of these cards and the Gingham Gala adhesive backed sequins.  They are both on sale too! 

    Don't miss out on the amazing deals; get them while you can. Click here.  I doubt we'll have many things on sale for awhile….

  • Country Club Designer Paper; make a card with NO stamping!


    I have some friends who are seriously into golfing!  They golf almost daily in Arizona.  So I knew I had to send her some cards made with this Country Club designer series paper.  

    Once I had it in hand I realized that one whole sheet has golf images on it!  In fact you can get 12 cards from one sheet!  Look!

    I cut the image to 2 3/4" X  3 3/4" and colored it in with Blends markers.  Just like a coloring book!  Next I added a layer of card stock to it. Then added it to a piece of the Country Club designer paper along with a 1 1/4" strip of card stock.  Easy peasy!

    See the Country Club suite of products here online.  It looks like all of these items are retiring including this designer paper and twine!
