Slimline Shaker Birthday Card


Hello!  The Fun Friday Challenge #163 at Your Next Stamp starts today:  "Create
 a burst of color on your creation."  I made a bright and cheerful Slimline card that is also a shaker.


The colourful background die was cut from glittery card stock using the Slim Circle Panel Die and I added various filler to the shaker including a few seed beads in a rainbow of colours. The beads came in some kind of charity mailing, but I never send money to charities who send me stuff I don't want so I saved them to use in a shaker card.


Inside I used the Slim Stitched Rectangles to cut both a patterned paper and a white panel, then added another die cut glittery butterfly. The butterfly dies are meant to cut out the pretty stamped butterfly in the Beautiful Butterfly set but I chose just to use the solid layer and let the bright glittered card stock take centre stage. I added a holographic sticker to the centre of each butterfly.

  1. Fun dance party in a card. Wait..what.. a charity sent you a crafty supply? That's the ultimate bribe, way to hold on.... tee hee. I've not done a slimline yet, but this is a great way to use all that space. Fun card.
