Today I am using the set called Sweet Cakes.
I remembered a card a sweet friend and FABULOUS card maker named Candace made and knew that I wanted to try her idea out. Click here to see her card.
The other day I was using some of my Jenni Bowlin Pins. They came in this great package.
Well I took the pins out and thought to save the plastic tray, because I knew I'd reuse it.
For this card, the tray is the window of my shaker.
I did not take pictures in the making process of this card. It was quite a round of trial and error.
I tried to take multiple pictures to show you how the tray works as the pop out window.
I used the tiny cupcakes for the inside of the shaker and small glass beads that I thought looked like cupcake sprinkles.
We have a fried who refers to the sprinkles as SPINKIES..is that the cutest thing?
This card was fun to make but I did have quite a time getting the hole in the paper fit the plastic tray just right.
But no fear, I am mathematically challenged, so this is probably only an issue to me!
My little ones enjoy shaking the card...shaking...shaking...shaking..."Ok..put the card down now!"
I love the way it turned out...what else have you seen put in these shakers? We'd love to hear from you. Leave a link in your comment if you'd like!
I'd love to hear your ideas!
