The easy way to make a shaker card!


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. 

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.

  • Gingerbread & Peppermint fun fold cards – easy to replicate!


    Merry Christmas!!  I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday.

    We made this neat card at my December Card Clubs. I love the double Z fold design. And it makes great use of both card stock and designer paper! 

    I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint bundle for the stamps & dies.  Unfortunately it's sold out already.  And so is the Heartwarming Hugs designer paper. Retiring Holiday Catalog time is so hard!  

    But you can use this card layout with other designs and occasions.  One thing I love about this card is that the inside accordion piece is perfectly sized to get 4 out of an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of card stock so it's great for mass producing.  

    The colors are Real Red, White & Mossy Meadow.  

    Measurements: 

    • Red card base 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
      Mossy Meadow 2 3/4" X 8 1/4" scored every 2 3/4"
      DSP 2 1/2" X 4" for front, two squares at 2 1/2"
      White 2 1/2" for inside greeting, scrap for die-cut label

    Other products used here:

    • Real Red 3/8" Mini Ruffled ribbon (Holiday catalog)
    • Meadow dies for the pretty greeting label die-cut
    • Clear rhinestones

  • Plenty of Patterns with new Tropical dies; video tutorial


    This card in Pacific Point & White is so pretty!  I shared how to make it on last week's FB Live.

    The window frame is made with the Stitched Rectangle dies on a piece of White CS 4" X 5 1/4". The pretty die-cut leaf is from a new set of dies coming out in the 2022 Jan-June catalog called Tropical Layer dies. 

    I used White Craft ink with the Plenty of Pattern masks seen here & below.  I did not use a sponge; I pressed the ink pad directly onto & through the mask on a separate piece of Pacific Point CS.  You can watch how it's done in the video here.  It's the first project. 

    The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set that coordinates with the Tropical Layer dies.  It will be in a bundle at 10% off next year.  


    Below is the video with these projects & lots more!

  • New Artfully Layered stamp set with Plenty of Pattern masks; embossed grid technique & video


    Here's a card made in my series featuring the Plenty of Pattern masks from a recent FB Live seen here.  I think it's super neat!  

    I explain how it's done in the video here.  Basically I laid the mask over my card stock and repeatedly pressed my Versamark ink pad directly over it.  Then I heat embossed with Clear embossing powder & my heat tool. I love this effect!

    The greeting is from the Artfully Layered stamp set in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog.  It will be in a bundle with the Tropical Layer dies at 10% off.  

    After I created the embossed grid background layer I used a scalloped stitched rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies to die-cut a piece from the center.  Then I adhered the outside piece to my Black layer and added the center piece on Stampin' Dimensionals. I wanted the Black to show a bit behind it.  

    The oval die-cut for the greeting is from the Beautiful Layers dies; also from the upcoming new catalog. Adding a 1/2" Black strip brings the Black outer layer forward a bit.  

    Below is the video with this project & lots more!
