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.

My colors include Mossy Meadow, Polished Pink & Balmy Blue. The pretty die-cut flowers are all from the Awash in Beauty designer paper. The Organic Beauty dies are designed perfectly to match the DSP! The only stamping I did here are the two greetings; all of the flowers are die-cut from either card stock or DSP.
