Fast & Easy Shaker Card


Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog
Hello! The challenge for you still remains…. a window card. The design team was asked to make an accordion window card.

Lot of photos for this accordion card.



Inside front

 I came up with an easy shaker card: I just filled the Clear Envelopes (I normally place my card in.) with sequins, cut it down a bit and sealed it with washi tape, then placed my oval overlay on top. So Easy! Not as firm as the other way but much faster and it still shakes and nothing sticks.

  11. What a pretty card! And so clever of you to use the clear envelopes for a shaker card. I did an order to purchase some serendipity stamps and never even realized that there were clear envelopes...More things to add to my wish list.
