Oh What Fun It Is!
Hi Bloggers! Happy Sunday to you! I’m excited to share with you a super fun card + video from the sweet & talented Jess Larsen! This fun shaker card combines some cool new releases from our Simon brand as well as Hero Arts & Lawn Fawn! Be sure to check out the video too for a great step by step of how to remake this fun card!
Simon’s holiday release combined with the colder weather has really inspired me to start my holiday cards! I send out Christmas cards each year, but instead of mass producing the same one, I start a bit early and usually have enough different ones to go around by December! It’s fun to send a unique card to each recipient and helps me from becoming bored making the same card over and over again.For today’s card, I used the two circles from Simon’s Suspension Tree die to create ornaments that I then filled with Lawn Fawn’s Peace Joy Love Sequins! Shaker cards can be a bit intimidating, but they are really easy once you know all of the steps. Check out the video to see the whole process from start to finish!

Love all those sequins.
oohh—that’s a great card! Thanks for the video! I am going to try to make some of these for Xmas!!
I made Halloween and Christmas shaker cards this year, They are one of my favorite techniques for cards.
I like to make cards that just don’t stand there so shakers are one of my favorite cards to make and shake!

That was a really informative YouTube tutorial. It also allows anyone to make the card with what they have at hand yet clearly shows the products you used. You have a super sweet voice and the card is one I would like to make and or receive. Thank you,
