How to make a handmade shaker card easily

Today’s project is focused on How to easily make a handmade shaker card. The Confetti Flowers Punch and the Mason Jar Dome from Stampin’ Up! were used in this project. The images are from the Jar of Flowers Photopolymer stamp set. All products available in our annual catalogue.

I couldn’t resist using our current in-colours for this project. The two main focal colours are Misty Moonlight and Magenta Madness. Love both of these colours! My shaker elements are actually the excess Confetti Flowers from my previous project.

The matt layer is a piece of the misty moonlight colour focused DSP from the co-ordinating paper pack named Flowers for every season.

The dome was really easy to work with thanks to the double sided adhesive already on the plastic surround.

By cutting a slight section out of each side of the neck of the jar dome, I was able to wrap round some co-ordinating Misty Moonlight/Silver Bakers Twine.

I’m really happy how it turned out.
