New shaker cards | Elle's Studio Sincere Sentiments collection

 Following the new Sincere Sentiments release from Elle's Studio, I was inspired to create shaker cards using the stamps and metal dies.

Supplies: Sincere Sentiments Best of Friends Stamp, Sincere Sentiments Best of Friends Metal Die, The Best 6x8.5 Paper Stack, Warm Solids and Cool Solids 6x8.5 Paper Stacks

For this first card, I used the large flower die-cut and put it through the machine three times eyeing the distance between them (like I did previously here). I backed each with solid cardstock from the Warm and Cool Solids Paper Stacks and filled each pockets with matching sequins.

For the sentiment, I combined two stamps from the Best of Friends set (then handcutting the S from the Friends die-cut). I could not resist using the miniature "for you" tag which I stamped on green cardstock and adorned with a string bow. I love it!

To embellish the card, I added black stamping directly on the background but also stamped flowers in colors matching the background of each pocket.

My second card has a simpler and cleaner design with a classic central round shaker featuring the sentiment inside the pocket.

Again, I used papers from both the Warm and Cool Solids Paper Stacks (truly must-haves for any cardmakers) and stamps from the Best of Friends set for the sentiment. The variety of fonts in this set makes for awesome combinations!

Have you made shaker cards before? They are really fun!
