Happy Easter everyone. Jennifer Snyder here sharing my Easter shaker cards made with the new shaker chipboard sets from Creative Embellishments.
Do you love shaker cards? I must say I am absolutely obsessed with making them. They are always fun to make, fun to receive and create smile. Nothing like knowing you are making a card that will bring joy to someone.
Creative Embellishments also has a fabulous variety of new shaker card designs. The sets come with a pre-cut and perfectly sized acrylic piece to cover the shaker. That’s really important because the acrylic piece is the most critical and difficult part to create when making a shaker at home.
I used the Bunny and the Egg shapes for my cards today.

This is a close up of the bunny shaker card. I painted all chipboard pieces with ivory acrylic paint, and added some pink cardstock for bunny ears and nose.
I filled with sequins and crystals, then sealed the top with the pre-cut acrylic piece. I did use good adhesive to seal the top ( Beacons 3-in-1glue).
Here is the second card created. This is the traditional egg form painted with acrylic paints, then trimmed on the inside with lace and patterned paper for some egg-stra fancy embellishing.
I filled the egg card with adorable wood veneer pieces from Creative Embellishments. They are perfectly sized to use as shaker card filler.
I simply painted with acrylic paints to look like traditional Easter candy – marshmallow peeps and jelly beens.
