Day 1: Valentine Blog Hop
Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. I love to make shaker cards and today I’m sharing a shaker card that I made using the Love Hearts die. This die measures 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” and is perfect for the front of an A2 size card.
If you would like to watch how I made this card, then watch my video here.

I started by die cutting the Love Hearts die using Bristol Smooth cardstock and applied various distress oxide inks to the die cut panel. The ink colors I used are Cracked Pistachio, Picked Raspberry, and Shaded Lilac. After the die cut panel was colored, I set it aside. This will be the top panel for my card.
Next, I started to work on the shaker. To create the shaker, I die cut four pieces of white 110 lb. cardstock. I used these four pieces of cardstock to build up the walls for my shaker card by gluing each of the white die cut pieces together. Next, I glued the stack of white die cuts to an A2 size white card base which measures 4 1/4” x 5 1/2”.
I cut a piece of acetate to measure 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” and added it to the back of the colored die cut panel and set it aside.
Next, I added the Sweet Love Clay Confetti shaker pieces to the center of the white hearts on the stack of four die cut panels. Finally, I added glue to the back of the acetate of the colored panel and attached it to the top of the stacked white panels.
To finish off my card, I die cut the Hugs Script Die with black cardstock and adhered it to the front of the card. Next, I added the Pink Blush Pearls to the center of all of the flowers on the front of the card panel.
