I just couldn't resist the new Lawn Fawn porcupine Valentine stamp and die sets. They are adorable and come with some clever puns (which I plan to use on the inside of this card). I decided to make a full front shaker card using a piece of conversation hearts printed card stock, a Heiko sealable cello bag, and some sparkly and colorful heart confetti. HM Ben Franklin Crafts has an amazing array of gorgeous confetti packages perfect for making an assortment of seasonal and everyday projects. It's easy to size the printed card stock to fit your card base. For this card, I used a glittery red Paper Accents blank card. After putting the card stock in the cello bag, the confetti was added and the bag was pulled tightly around the card stock before it was taped in place from behind. This shaker piece was adhered to the card base with Heiko double stick tape.
Next the stamped and colored (with Copic pens) porcupines were die cut and attached to the card with foam sticky dots. The red heart with the silver foiled words was made with the Lawn Fawn metal plate (plus foil and a hot foiling machine) and cut out with the LF heart die. This foiled Happy Valentine's Day heart was glued to the front of the card above the porcupines. This full front shaker card was super simple to make and makes me happy as I shake, shake, shake the hearts. What is it about shaker cards that make them irresistible? Am I the only one who can't stop playing with shaker cards? LOL!
