Special Day Shaker Card

Today's card is a shaker card made using pretty papers from Kaisercraft.

To start, I splattered white ink on a dusty pink panel and mounted it to an off-white card using E-Z Dots.

Two coordinating papers from the pad were die-cut using a Nested Deckle Rectangle Die from Rubbernecker Stamps, both sheets are the same size. They were layered slightly askew also using the E-Z Runner Dots from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Floral paper was die-cut using the Holiday Tags Die from Rubbernecker Stamps, then a smaller tag die from the set was centered on the tag. I didn't want the top part of the tag die-cut, so I placed the embossing plate at the bottom scallop of the die and ran it through my Crossover ll embossing machine. By doing this, only the bottom portion of the tag will be cut.

This is what it will look like. Now all that needs to be done is to place a ruler across the tag and use a craft knife to cut it off. Don't forget to cut on a self healing mat.

Since the decorative paper isn't thick, I die-cut the tag with the cutout from white cardstock so it won't be flimsy when it's popped up. The two pieces are attached using the E-Z Dots Runner.

Acetate was die-cut using the larger die and this was attached to the back of the tag using the E-Z Dots Runner.

If you like making shaker cards you will LOVE these 3D Foam Strips, they are nice and thin so you don't have to cut them down. The back of the tag was lined with these, being sure their aren't any openings for the shaker bits to fall out. This is also the point where you want to add ribbon at the top of the tag.

The die-cut paper panels are adhered to the card using the E-Z Dots Runner, then shaker bits were placed on the center of the panel and the tag was placed on top.  Butterflies were cut from one of the papers, the wings were bent up and glued to the card using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. For the final touch, pale pink enamel dots were placed on the card as shown.

All adhesives are from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
