Birthday Shaker

This is a card that I made for Katrina's birthday- Happy Birthday!

I haven't had a shaker in months and thought this would be a great time to make one. I also wanted to use my new in colours and circle scissors plus.

To make a shaker I make the card base and the window separately. I cut the circles using the circle scissors plus and glued the acetate to the back. To make the card base I adhered the white cardstock with the image and put pieces of dimensionals all along the rim of the image. You have to make sure there are no spaces in between the pieces so nothing in the shaker will leak out. I use a teaspoon to put the chunky sprinkles and beads into the centre and then put the window on top. Make sure to run your finger along the entire circle before shaking so that the window is sealed.

258- Cupcake Tri Shutter Card

The tri shutter card was demonstrated by Mary Jo at last weeks megameeting. It was also a technique challenge (TLC 221) on Splitcoast a few weeks ago. Until I saw the demonstration I was a bit overwhelmed but trust me this was easy. And such a fantastic card- who wouldn't be impressed receiving a card and opening it up and seeing this!

You need to use 12"x12" paper for this project. You cut the paper to 5"x12". You then score it at 2", 4", 8" and 10". You put the paper lengthwise in your paper cutter and cut between the two outer score lines at 1.5" from the top and bottom. You fold the top and bottom pieces in the same direction going first back, the forward, then back. Do the reverse with the middle piece. Then decorate all the different sections- so much fun!
