My flora card is also a shaker card.  I made one recently 

for  a male challenge and decided to make another  shaker.

The paper is from a paper pad from The Works - I love their 

12 x 12 paper/.card, Aperture created with dies.

Acetate - assorted beads. A pair of Tattered butterflies by

Lyndsey Mason.

The stamped flower is by My Paper World.

Stay safe - stay alert - enjoy crafting. 

Shaker Card

Hello, thanks for your visit, I appreciate

the time you took to visit.  Today we begin a new challenge 

at Back to Basics and Beyond for the next two weeks.

we have #24 Shaker Card.

I would love for you to pop over to the blog for the few

details and of course to see the inspiration from the DT.

I recently went to a Stamparama show at Harrogate.

Even though the morning crowds were very busy, 

I had a marvellous day, I forced myself to buy loads of 

wonderful stamps, including the Bee Happy set from Hobby Art.

Inside my shaker are 3 stamped and fussy cut bees and 

a number of gold coloured gems/

I added glossy accents on the bee on the honeycomb.

If this is your first shaker card, enjoy, take your time, 

the results are such great fun. 

Shaker Card

Hello, thanks for your visit to my blog. Today begins a new

challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz.   Amy has chosen a special type of card.

A Shaker Card

If your unsure You Tube have lots of clear, useful videos.

Please check out the super creations from the DT on the blog.

I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest to make my card.

The guitar is an embroided item which a friend gave me some time ago, 

proof once again why we as crafters should keep all bits in our stash, 

for they will in time be used. 

The largest star is mirri card, punched with a Fiskars scissor punch.

The smaller stars are stamped and gold heat embossed - stamps by 

Crafters Companion - Urban Graffiti and sentiment - Street Wise

Gold gems, smaller crystal gems and blue seed beads added .

Have fun, I certainly did, it's simply ages since I made a Shaker card.
