Can you see the shaker elements spread across the front of the card as it is placed flat on a table? I used seed beads and some other little sparkly bits. This one was really easy to create as I cut down a pre-printed card, stamped a sentiment on it, encased it in a small clear envelope, added the shaker elements, and finally sealed the envelope. I cut a frame using dies, and glued the frame down to a card base. I then glued the shaker envelope into the frame opening, adding the flowers as design elements and done!
I hope you like it. It was super quick and easy.
Thanks for visiting!
