Paper Pumpkin Shaker Cards

I said I would show you the inspiration for my birthday, shaker card in my last post.

These are the cards made with the December Paper Pumpkin kit from Stampin' Up!





The kit has supplies to make nine cards Three of each greeting. They went together fairly quickly too.





Here is a close up of the birthday one. Of course I had to order a the new Star Border Confetti punch so I could have stars for all the rest of shaker cards I am going to make.

I hope you are all staying warm & dry. Thanks for stopping by.

Shaking Up Some Birthday Greetings

Have you ever made a shaker card? LOTS of fun. I received a Silhouette Portrait e-cutter for Christmas. I cut out the "happy" frame on my Silhouette and glued it to a wider white frame. Then I glued on a window sheet (acetate cut to size). Then I added some double-stick foam tape around the edge of the window sheet. You have to make sure it doesn't stick out into the window.
Then I put a pile of confetti/sequins/punched shapes on the center of the card and put the frame down. Fun, fun, fun!





This card was inspired by the December Paper Pumpkin kit from Stampin' Up! I'll show you those cards later this week.

Hope you enjoyed today's card. Thanks for visiting.
