Good morning Vic here today.

I have made a really fun thank you shaker card.

You will need:

• Baby Pink Plain Card 240gsm
• New Lilac Smooth Card 240gsm
• Turquoise Colour Card 240gsm
• White Card Super Smooth 300gsm
• Stick it! Double Sided Tape 6mm
• Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm
• Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml

You will also need:

• Critter stamps
• Watercolour paints
• Circle dies (Uniquely Creative)
• Acetate
• Sequins and Gems
• Heat Gun
• Versamark Ink
• White Embossing Powder

To make the card base I trimmed down a piece of Baby Pink Plain Card 240gsm to 4 1/4" and scored at 5 7/8". I then trimmed down another piece that was exactly the same size as the card front. Using this piece if card I run this through the die cutting machine using a circle die. I the die cut another small circle frame using some New Lilac Smooth Card 240gsm. I the turned this piece over and using some Stick it! Double Sided Tape 6mm I adhered the acetate over the circle back. I then added Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm all around the edge and filled the center up with sequins and gems. I adhered this to m y card front using some more Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm. I then used some Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml to adhere down the New Lilac Smooth Card 240gsm circle die.

Using a piece of White Card Super Smooth 250gsm I stamped and carefully water coloured the images in. Once dry I trimmed them out and adhered down onto the shaker card.

I then heat embossed the sentiment onto a piece of Turquoise Cumbria Colour Card 270gsm and adhered this onto my card.

To finish the card off I added some more gems which I adhered down using Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml.

I hope you have fun making some shaker cards!
