Easiest Shaker card you’ll ever make!

Giving an interactive card makes the card extra special like shakers, spinners or fun folds.  But they can be time consuming or a lot of work.  

Touch of Ink shaker Save

I used the free 'A Touch of Ink' stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  You can see it here.  That background was made with our Blending Brushes and Bermuda Bay & Calypso Coral ink.

This type of shaker card is truly easy; really!  Besides the stamped element you need three basic things:

  1.  A clear envelope
  2. Strong adhesive
  3. Sequins, beads or tiny punched pieces

Insert your stamped card stock into the clear envelope, fold the excess envelope over to the back and seal with adhesive leaving one end open.  Add your fun filler and seal closed.

The pretty sequins in this card are the Woven Threads sequins in the annual catalog on page 157.

I made a video in December on making one of these shaker cards.  Even though it's a Christmas card it's the same technique. Here it is:

  • Artistic Dies & sponging; super simple but WOW!

    I couldn't decide which to use behind the sponged die-cut so I made both White & Black.   You can see that video here from Tuesday's FB live earlier this week.  

    Which one do you prefer? 

    Artistic dies; black or white Save

    The reviews were mixed.  Most prefer the Black because the colors pop more.  But others liked the White for a softer look. 

    The card bases are Pale Papaya and Polished Pink. The strips are Pear Pizzazz. I used sponge daubers in Pear, Papaya, Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink to add color to the pretty die-cut.  See these dies here and the bundle here.

    The pretty scalloped die-cut is from the Scalloped Contour dies seen here.  The oval is from the Double Oval punch.

  • Can you tell which is stamped and which is Designer paper?

    I made these on FB live this week using the Expressions in Ink suite.  Can you tell which background is stamped and which is Designer Paper?  

    Expressions in Ink FB live May 11 Save

    My top favorite suite in the new Annual catalog is the Expressions in Ink.  See it here or on page 96-97.  It's filled with stamps & paper that mimic alcohol ink backgrounds.  Toss in the beautiful gold accents and it's stunning!

    Here's a close up of the card.  Can you tell if I stamped it or if it's designer paper?

    Yes; I did stamp it!  These images are so neat!  I can see lots of uses for both the greetings and the faux alcohol ink stamps.  See how in the video below. Mmm; I think I'll try a one sheet wonder with these…..! 

    And look at the leaves die-cuts!  I cut them from In Color Shimmer Vellum & Gold Foil paper.  The tag is from the Tailor Made Tags dies.

    Here's the FB Live replay video.  Sorry the text isn't flipped so you can read it.  FB changed their settings and the tool icon is gone.

  • Inspired Thoughts Bundle; a beautiful scene

    I created this card for an online swap I participated in last month.  I just love it!

    The main 4 trees die-cut can be cut apart which opens a whole world of possibilities! 

    Inspired Thoughts swap sponged clouds Save

    Here's how I made it:

    1. Die-cut the trees and hill using the Inspiring Canopy dies (seen below).  
    2. Cut the 4 trees apart at the bottom connection point. Set aside.
    3. Sponge clouds using Pool Party ink onto the 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS.  I used the Basic Border dies (cloud).
    4. Sponge Calypso Coral ink onto the bottom third of this piece. 
    5. Adhere the trees to the edge of each side. 
    6. Add the hill piece; trim off excess from hill and trees. Adhere to the Calypso Coral card base. 
    7. Finish with Genial Gems.  

    You can see the beautiful Inspired Thoughts bundle here.
