Most of the time, you reach for acetate to create your shaker cards, but why not use vellum instead. This was you can tone down bright pattern paper and create a fun pastel shaker with a vellum window. Here I’m using a selection of Catherine Pooler Designs to create this slimline shaker card, but you can also use it to make a regular sized card as well.

Pastel shaker with vellum window: creating the shaker
This card uses the Chevron Slimline die and you need to cut it from white card stock twice. Next, add a vellum panel the same size as the die-cut between the two die-cuts and use liquid adhesive to adhere it together.

Next, use the floral pattern paper from the A Little Drizzle paper pack and adhere this down onto a slimline card base. Place some of the Portland sequin mix on top, spreading the sequins out.

Add thin strips of adhesive foam to the back of the shaker window and adhere down onto the card base. The new Altenew Instant Dimension Foam tape is great for this as it is easy to cut down into thin strips.
Pastel shaker with vellum window: finishing the card
To finish this card off, stamp the script ‘blessed’ from the Abundantly Blessed stamp set in Do-Si-Do ink and fussy cut out. In addition, stamp a smaller sentiment to create a sentiment strip.

Adhere the sentiment onto the front of the card and use liquid adhesive to add a few more sequins to the front, scattering these around the sentiment.
