The easy way to make a shaker card!

October 7, 2023

You may think a shaker card needs foam adhesive strips or a die-cut window. Not true!

You can make them easily from clear envelopes! *did you know we have clear envelopes in our Annual catalog? See them on page 135 or here online. You get 50 envelopes for just $7.

Save

Just add your paper inside the clear envelope (making sure it fits tightly so the shaker pieces don't move behind), pour in some shaker elements like loose sequins or beads, and seal it up. It's a super fun card to receive; it's a bit addictive to shake!

The designer paper is the Walk in the Woods and the stamps are from the More Wishes stamp set; both found in the Holiday catalog. I stamped the greetings on a die-cut from the Nested Essentials dies.

These cards are included in one of my Christmas card kits to go. I have three different kit options to choose from; you can see them all here.

The kits include everything you need except stamps, ink and adhesives. You can add on the stamp set at a 10% savings with the purchased kit. These Christmas card kits are limited; opt in while they're available.

Quick All Aflutter card with the Extraordinary Washi tape

June 23, 2026

Here’s a sweet card made with both the All Aflutter bundle and the Extraordinary Washi tape:

Save

My colors include Calypso Coral, Old Olive and White. The Arches dies used in White here give a wonderful focal point to highlight the butterflies, greeting and flowers from the Washi tape. Unfortunately they are out of stock currently; but see them here and put your email in to get notified when they’re back in stock.

The background texture on the Old Olive layer is the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder. This folder is super popular and out of stock right now. Again, please add your email to be notified when it’s available.

Save

I love the Extraordinary Washi tape with coordinating die. You can cut out lots of colored flowers and leaves with ONE CUT! I save the extras to use them when I need just a little something extra. See the Washi tape here (you get 10 yards!) and the coordinating die-cut here. There’s also a bundle you can get here; it includes both the stamps and die-cut.

It’s simple to use this washi tape! Start by adhering a strip of it to white card stock (vellum or window sheet also works). Then use the die-cut to cut all of the pieces out.

I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download it or print it out.

There’s also a video tutorial for this card and another sweet All Aflutter fun fold card. See it below.

All Aflutter envelope-flap style card with free project sheet & video

June 22, 2026
This neat fun fold card was created for my June card clubs. I call it an envelope flap closure.

Save

My colors include Darling Duckling, Blueberry Bushel with White. Wonderfully bright for summer! I used quite a few products here so I’ll list them for you.
- All Aflutter stamp and dies bundle seen here
- Darling Duckling 12 X 12″ Two-toned card stock
- Irresistible specialty designer paper seen here
- Lazy Daisy & Floral Spray 3D embossing folders
- 1 3/4″ and 2″ circle punches
- Blending Brushes
- a sanding block
Save

The Irresistible designer paper is cut into a 3 3/4″ square and scored in the center diagonally. It’s adhered to the back of the Blueberry Bushel card base before that is adhered to the larger Darling Duckling CS.

There are three patterns in this specialty Irresistible designer paper you can see here. When you add ink to this specialty paper it reveals the white shiny pattern.

Save

You can see the two patterns I used on my card here.

And here’s the other version. Note both the blue Irresistible patterns and the embossing folders.

After we textured the 2-toned Darling Duckling card stock we sanded it with a sanding block (from my husband’s shop) to reveal more of the White core.

You can see the All Aflutter bundle here. I love having butterfly images with a coordinating punch! See it here.

I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, photos and supplies list. Click here to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card and one other made with the cute All Aflutter bundle.

I’ll share the second card with the free project sheet tomorrow.
