Have you ever wanted to make a shaker card but 1) you thought it was too complicated, or 2) it’s too bulky to mail, so, you didn’t make it? Well, I have a solution for you!! How about a Faux Shaker card, using a clear medium envelope and shakey bits!?
Let me show you how!
Watch the video below so see how fun and easy this style of faux shaker card is to make!
Cut a piece of cardstock, designer paper, or embossed paper (in this case, it’s Polished Pink Shimmer vellum, embossed with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder) to 4″ x 5-1/4″. Place it inside of a clear envelope, add shaker bits, and wrap the excess clear envelope to the back, securing it with adhesive. Mount this on top of a folded card base, and decorate the front!!!
That’s it!
To decorate the front of my card, I stamped Happy Birthday from the Biggest Wish set in Polished Pink and Granny Apple Green (to go with the Shaker Shapes), and tied it with Polished Pink ribbon and some white Baker’s Twine colored with my Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends marker. While I had my marker out, I colored some clear Elegant Faceted Gems and added them to the Tailor Made Tag.
