Hello friends and happy Wednesday!
I am back again today to share with you another Easter-themed card. This time it is a traditional Slimline Shaker featuring Easter Shaker Eggs. I initially was going to make it a pocket shaker and then switched gears halfway through. Does anyone else have that happen?
CARD RECIPE
- To begin, I die-cut the top panel using the large dotted frame from Dotted Slimline Set 2.
- I then die-cut the window openings of the shakers using the Easter Shaker Eggs. I repeated the bunny ear one twice and placed them on the ends.
- Behind the front panel, I then glued a piece of acetate and added foam tape around the outer edges.
- On the card front of the slimline card base, I added scrap pieces of paper to add a rainbow of colors behind each egg and glued them down.
- I then added the shaker bits (Icy Rainbow Confetti and Crystal Clear 3M Sequins) to the center of the card and then added the top panel to create the shaker.
- The sentiment comes from the Mini Easter Sayings that I stamped and heat embossed in gold and used the coordinating dies to cut it out. I then used some foam tape to pop it up.
- For some added fun and details, I used some satin ribbon to make a bow and added interest. To the bunny eggs, I added some coordinating pompoms to create the illusion of their furry bunny butts!
Other than the die cutting (aligning the eggs and spacing them out) this card was quite simple and quick to make. After I had finished, I thought I should have made an Easter card set instead, using one egg shaker per card in rainbow colors. Well, I might still do that... we shall see how much time I have, lol!
Anyways, I hope you have enjoyed today's Easter Egg Slimline Shaker Card post. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
