Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m sharing the Faux Shaker Card! If you’re searching for a project that’s both fun and easy, the faux shaker card is the perfect choice! Imagine creating a whimsical card that dazzles with its design but doesn’t require intricate techniques. With the gorgeous Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper as your canvas, this project becomes an absolute delight. 

What exactly is a faux shaker card, you might wonder? It’s a brilliant card-making technique that mimics the charm of a shaker card without the fuss of creating a contained shaker area. Instead, you’ll achieve the look of floating elements without the need for foam tape and acetate. 

Check out the video …. Watching someone else craft can be both informative and inspiring, sparking your creativity in delightful ways.

The magic begins with the stunning Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper, adorned with elegant floral patterns and soothing hues. This paper is a dream to work with, featuring delicate designs that elevate any crafting project effortlessly.

To start your crafting adventure, grab your favorite pattern from the Perennial Lavender collection and a coordinating cardstock base. Cut your chosen paper to fit the card front and then, using your trusty paper trimmer, create a window in the center of the paper. This will serve as the focal point of your card.

Now comes the fun part! Gather tiny embellishments like sequins, beads, or even small die-cut shapes that complement the lavender-themed paper. Arrange these elements within the window you’ve created, allowing them to scatter and create a playful, whimsical effect.

The faux shaker card is not just a project; it’s an opportunity to create something beautiful while having a fantastic time doing it!
