Easter Shaker Card

Easter Shaker card
Today's card is no April's Fools joke.  It is absolutely adorable.  Are you in need of an adorable Easter card?  A fellow demo, Marcia Shields created this adorable shaker card for a shoebox swap.  A shoebox swap is an opportunity for stampers to get together and make cards that other stampers have created.  As a demonstrator, you bring a completed card and all the supplies for other stampers to create your card.  It is a great opportunity to learn new techniques and try a style that you may not normally be drawn to creating.  It's also a lot of fun!

I love how bright and cheery this card is for Easter!  This card uses the SAB DSP, some In Color sequins, Oval Framelits, and an adorable Easter stamp set.  To create this card, you need to adhere the DSP layer to the Coastal Cabana card stock and put them both through the Big Shot to cut out the oval using the Oval Framelits Dies.
