Hey Crafty People!
Today im sharing my favourite craft hacks in the Shaker Edition! ?
Shake It Up
- Use strong glue to adhere you acetate window to your front panel and allow it to fully dry.
- Double the fun by using either thick foam tape, or double up the standard to get more space for that shake!
- Add foam to seperate out sections of the shaker; this helps it to look fuller and also stops all of the pieces falling out of sight at the very bottom of the card when it’s stood up on display.
- Once filled, add another sheet of acetate to the back to seal in all of the pieces . This makes it so much easier to apply your background panel because you can lift the whole shaker to place it down wherever you want it.
- Dont neglect that background; add some interest but without being too bright or bold so the focus is on the shaker itself.
- Add any images and a sentiment to the front.
- Use the same embellishments that are inside the shaker to embellish the finished card.
Please be aware:
As part of my Design Team and Guest Design work I do often receive free products to use, but I only ever recommend products that I genuinely love.
Also, I know how incredibly lucky I am to have these opportunities, but you don’t always NEED the newest products or the ‘full set’.
So please don’t feel that you need everything.
I like to show a variety of brands and products; this way there will be something for everybody to enjoy.
