Merry Christmas my Crafty Friends and Happy New Year as this will be my last post of the year!
For today's post, I have a few fun shakers to share featuring goodies from Honey Bee Stamps inspired by the latest Holiday Wishes Paper Pad.
CARD RECIPE
Background - Holiday Wishes Paper Pad
HAPPY - Happy Happy Happy A2 Cover Plate
NEW YEAR - Bee Bold Alphabet Dies
Shaker Pocket Panel - DIY from Acetate or use plastic wrapping
(watch the video of the original DIY Full Panel Shaker)
Shaker Bits - Mixed from supply stash to coordinate
- Trim your background panel to A2 size. I used the pattern paper from the Holiday Wishes Paper Pad but you can definitely create your own.
- Place the panel into the acetate shaker panel with the pattern side facing down and the adhesive tabs facing up (if you don't have a pre-made acetate cover you can DIY your own with acetate or some recycled plastic from old packaging).
- Secure 3 of the sides to the panel to create the shaker pocket using strong adhesive tape.
- Fill with your shaker pocket with bits and bling and seal the last tab.
- Adhere the panel to a card base using a strong adhesive.
- Add the die cuts to the front of the panel.
Here are a few more examples. Using the MERRY and a sentiment from the Mini Messages: Holiday Stamps die cut using the Mini Messages Dies.
This next Christmas Shaker features the Merry Christmas from the Bitty Buzzwords: Holidays Dies and the greenery from the Lovely Layers: Candy Cane Dies and Decorative Star Layering Frames Dies.
Making shakers this way is much easier than using foam tape. The hardest part is actually photographing them as they are so reflective, lol!
Wishing you all a very restful and Happy Holiday Season. I will try and do the same 😉 Thank you for stopping by and until next year... Happy Crafting!
