Aren’t shaker card so much fun?
I love the simplicity of this new online exclusives set Happy Little Things with it’s open font that you can color and lots of different sayings! Such a versatile set!
So I decided to do a stepped up shaker card!

Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″
layer 4″ x 5 1/4″ embossed
scrap for the sentiment
2022-2024 In – Colors scraps for dies
Starry Sky 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
Window Sheet 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″

Stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento ink the open font Celebrate and “the little things” onto a strip of paper approximately 1″ x 5 1/2″
Color the open font with the 2022-2024 In-Colors Stampin’ Blends markers alternating all five colors.
Run the Basic White later through the polka dot Basics 3D embossing folder and adhere tothe card base.
Die cut one of each of the 2022-2024 In Color scraps with the larger banner die from the Happy Little Things die set. Adhere onto the embossed layer in the center.
Die cut the largest Perennial Postage die out of the Starry Sky layer to create a frame for the windowsheet and to hide the Foam Adhesive strips.
Adhere the window sheet to the back of Starry Sky frame.
Adhere Foam Adhesive strips around the entire edge of the Starry Sky frame make sure there are no holes for the shaker materials to leak out.
Adhere three sides of the foam strips to the card front and pour in the shaker material. Secure the last side of the shaker card and press down firmly to secure all sides.
The shaker material I used is retired now it was called Effervescent Elements but you could use the current loose silver sequins to achieve the same effect!
Adhere the sentiment piece over the center of the shaker cover and add Starry Sky Pearls to the card front to complete!

I love the way this card turned out – to see the shaker in action check out the 3-13-2024 Facebook video post!

Hope this inspired you to make a fun shaker card for a friend – now go create some art of your own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
