Joy Shaker Card by Steph

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today.  With slimline cards all the rage, I chose to use the Mini Shaker Joy  as the focal element.

The Mini  Joy Shaker consists of 3 chipboard pieces and one acrylic piece. 
Remember to remove the film off both sides of the acrylic piece before assembling.

In keeping with the season, I painted all the shaker pieces with gold paint then placed them aside to dry.

While waiting for the Mini Joy Shaker to dry, I created the card using Lawn Fawn dies.

I adhered assorted sized poinsettias to the left side of the card, then put it aside while I finished the shaker.

Assembling all the pieces to create the shaker, I placed  some Little Dude Sequins and some Lovely Sequins in the cavity.
Then I adhered the acrylic piece and the final chipboard piece on top to seal in the sequins.

Finally, I adhered the shaker to the card.

And the completed card looks amazing.

The shakers are fun to work with and I think they will look amazing on additional slimline cards which I plan to create in the future.

I hope you give these fun shakers a try.

Thanks for stopping by.
