Instructions: 




First, you will need 2 pieces of card stock, one for your card base A2 size (41/4" X 51/2 ),  and another piece for the inside backer, just slightly smaller, so about 4" x 51/4".  Next, You can trace and cut your shape on one side of your card base. This will create a window for your shaker. You can use an electronic die cutting machine, dies and machine, punch, or simply a straight edge and cutting knife.   If you have any wobbly edges you can use die cuts, stickers, stamped images, or even better, my new digital images, now available in the store, to cover up any imperfections!

Now, after cutting your window out, fold your card and place your backer piece of card stock in the card base. Tip: you can use some washi tape to hold it in place - be sure to remove some of the extra sticky from you tape by placing it on your clothes or backside of your hand. You are ready to stamp your image/sentiment. Stamp it through the window so you know it is aligned. After, stamping the image/sentiment you can remove the backer card stock and set it aside.  Then, open you card base on the inside of the window put adhesive - making sure to go around the entire window. Next, put a layer of tulle pressing it into the adhesive. Tip: if you have extra tulle - cut it off. you want it to stay inside the  layers. Add more adhesive, sequins and another layer of tulle - again making sure to press your tulle into the adhesive. Now, add adhesive to the backer card stock and place onto the window making sure that your image is aligned in the center of your window. 


Your card is now complete!
