Shaker Handmade Card

Please explain "shaker card" -- this is not familiar to me.

http://pin.it/QVx193m - Gabrielle this is a tutorial showing three methods how to make a shaker card. I also added it in the description above with tips on the shaker filler and acetate you can use. Hope that helps you!

I make a ton of these so I hope these tips help. If you use glitter it's best to use very chunky style glitter. I've used several finer ones and they stick like crazy to the acetate. If you want a blizzard look that's ok but it tends to obscure all your other awesome goodies in your shaker. Lucy's Little Things store sellls amazing sequin and confetti mixes that are stunning. You have to check her out. Pretty Pink Posh is another store that sells sequins in mixed colour packs which are lots of fun. If you use packaging, make sure it isn't full of scratches as these will show up in your final product. Did you know they make heat resistant acetate you can heat emboss on? It's made by Hot Off the Press and you can get it on Amazon. Hope this helps.

@thebragal thanks for your additional tips! :) A tip to keep static from sticking the fine glitter and other staticky items is to brush your paper and acetate with the embossing buddy or baby powder before filling, just make sure to brush the powder residue off of your paper and acetate after doing this!
