Sequin Shaker Blog Hop!

Hello everyone!

Waffle Flower Crafts is sponsoring the Sequin Shaker Blog Hop hosted by Pretty Pink Posh on April 26th!



Today, our Waffle Flower design team girls are sharing some sequin shaker cards to provide some ideas and help spread the word.

You should have arrived here from Joni Andaya's blog.  If not, please visit the Waffle Flower Crafts blog to pick up the entire hope order.

Given my relative inexperience with shaker cards, I decided to keep my creation it pretty simple. I cut a panel of aqua mist card stock and stamped it with the random star pattern from the Bowtiful stamp set.  Next, I cut a scalloped rectangle mat from white card stock with my Silhouette Portrait.  I centered the mat on the stamped panel and used a craft knife to cut a rectangle that is the same size as the center of the mat and adhered the mat around the opening.


I turned over the stamped panel and adhered a piece of acetate over the opening.  I lined the edges of the opening with foam tape and poured in some sequins.  I used the gorgeous Springtime Mix from Pretty Pink Posh. 


I stamped my sentiment (also from Bowtiful) on a scrap of white card stock that was a bit larger than my opening and adhered it to the foam tape to seal off the sequins.  Using a bit more foam tape, I attached the shaker panel to a Hibiscus Pink card stock base. 

Now for some details and a coupon!
