Birthday Shaker Card
Hi there my crafty friends! Shaker cards are all the rage and the Perspective range dies make great shaker cards too. Today's video shows you just how easy they are to do!
The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x
Gorgeous card, you just keep them coming. Laine, glad you enjoyed your birthday. NannaTina, any joy on Micks chair yet, you both need some time away from the ward life. June, great news, at last you can see some real progress, so pleased for you. Daily hugs to all, including our missing friends
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, lovely card and love the video, and is suitable for male or female.
Nanna Tina - hope you got a wheelchair sorted Pam - thanks for all your wishes
Wound update - one of the areas has healed enough that I don't have to have a dressing on now, the other pesky one is still being a bit naughty so they are trying the honey and a different dressing which I have to keep on for a week if I can, although I can see that it is staining the dressing, but as this is waterproof II am keeping my fingers crossed. But I will get there.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
As they are working down the 'natural' route June, have they mentioned a clean cabbage leaf to help with the healing process ? Our daughter is a nurse and it's been really successful in wound healing believe it or not (raw not cooked) ask though before trying xx
Hi Sue, good morning. WOW, what a happy colourful birthday card. I've never attempted a shaker card, never had the confidence in myself but thanks to this die and your tutorial you have made it look easy to achieve, and male or female receipient - it's perfect for either with a change of colour maybe. Yeah, think it should be on my list of cards to try (all I need is the die) !! Sending you my usual daily virtual friendly hug and hope you have a lovely day whatever you plan to do apart from making, designing,emailing etc, xxx
Morning Sue. I love this card. Its gorgeous in its simplicity. It has everything for a clean and simple card with a twist. A great one for guys but then i would be delighted to recieve this on my birthday. Thanks for another great video. Will try this one later. Best Wishes. Denise T x
Hi Sue and crafters everywhere, Lovely plain and simple card and the dies say it all. Love this Happy die with all the accompanying dies, I bought it them in the Perspective bundle from Hochanda and have had positive comments each time it has been used. Thank you Sue for your brilliant designs. Love and crafty hugs to all, Tina T xxxx
Hi Sue I love this card so much that I made it for my grand daughter and she loved it. I used a bit more decoration for her but it was a huge success. Great card. Anne M xxx
Hi Sue, I love shaker cards, and these perspective dies really are effective when making them. I have some others, but think I need the Happy one too. Love the multi colour sequins, and great idea with the couple at the top. Thanks for the video. Have a great day. Bx
Hello Sue and all Lovely bright birthday card for just about anyone, the die says it all and those bright sequins are fabulous. Hugs and positive thoughts to all those having difficulties , Muriel x
Hi Sue. You are amazing to come up with a different inspiration every day for us. This is a gorgeous card and I can see it as really useful for older teens. My wish list can now only be described as "epic"! Hugs to all. Sue XXX
Hi Sue Oh wow! A fabulous card. I love shaker cards, I love clean and simple cards and I love your word dies!! Thank you for sharing. Have a great day everyone. Hugs.
Hi Sure. Many thanks for the great idea. I haven't made a shaker card for a number of years but I'm might just be creating one one for my great niece for her 10th birthday next week. Do you punch the holes along the edge with a parchment punch tool? I've been looking for dies that I can do this with. Thanks again.
Hi Sue I have this die set and will be using it for my Grandsons birthday next month and after seeing this I just might have a go at a shaker. No chair yet but Mick has motion sickness every time he sits up even slightly so Physio's are going to work on him in bed for now and they are going to do another tilt table test and compare results with the last one he had so hopefully while they are waiting for chair they can get him able to sit up for more than a few minutes without feeling sick, he has also lost another stone in weight so we need to get some food in him and keep it down, thank you all for u our messages and good wishes Happy crafting Love and huge hugs to everyone Love Tina xxxx
Morning Sue, A simple but stunning card today. Another that can be for kids and men's birthdays. I spent all day yesterday working on the first of two quilts, just have the binding to go on it. Which I am hoping to do today. Then I can get started on the next quilt. I should learn not to volunteer to make things lol Happy crafting all Maggie
Good Morning Sue I have Arthritis in my fingers at the moment, so 1 finger typing! lol. Love the Sequins on this card...off to watch video next! Love Marg
Hi Sue - I just love this card and I can think of so many people I could send this to - a great card for teenagers. The video is very helpful and I will definitely be buying this die now. Thank you for your wonderful ideas, kind regards YvonneMayxx
After a lovely week away it is great to come back and see what's happening on the blogs I follow. This is gorgeous, Sue - we must all have sequins stashed away somewhere.
I too haven't made a shaker card for many years bu,t, watching this video, I am tempted to get myself the die and have another go. I love the plainness and simplicity of this card which highlights the shaker element very strongly.
Morning Sue, A great fun card, suitable for men or teenagers, love shaker cards, not made any since Christmas. Maybe I'll treat myself to this die and have a go. Have a good day. Lydia X
Hello Friends! I didn't think I needed this Happy die, oh silly me! I really love this card! I love the bright colored sequins with the black background & white front - so much fun! Life isn't allowing me time to stay current & to catch up on comments, but had a few moments so peeked into this happy blog (double meaning wasn't intended, but it works :) - so sending global hugs! Rebecca in Colorado xox
Hi Sue, this is a different style from yours but equally gorgeous. And I've got JUST a couple of recipients who would appreciate this very much. Thank heaven for the videos you make, I'm bound to have forgotten how to make it when it comes to it, so can always look it up there. Thanks Sue. Hugs, Rose
What a great idea! As everyone says, it's a 'HAPPY' card, who could resist smiling when they see it? The sequins are bright too, so that makes you cheer up if you were feeling down. :) Hugs to all in need of them today, Paula x (WelshPaula)

Lovely card sue. I was the fortunate winner of this die and I love it.
The news wasn't good this morning with my dad. They're is a mass in his gullet which is suspected cancer. They've had to admit him as now he can't keep anything down even with liquids he's struggling. I'm so upset I'm trying to stay strong for him but it's not really working. I don't know what to do :-(.
Tracey, I'm so very sorry to hear the news about your dad, no wonder you are so upset. You have been through a horrendous few months and now this worry. If caring thoughts could help, I would send you a trunkful. My heart goes out to you.
Hello Sue, Fabulous card, I love it. June, pleased to see that part of the wound has healed and hopefully, the other part will soon follow suit. Tracy, after all you've gone through, I am so sorry to read about your father. love to all, Maureen xx
Good morning/afternoon Sue and your amazing Wilsonettes. Wow Sue...what a fabulous and fun card. I've never made a shaker card but your video makes it look so easy that I have to give it a try! Thank you!
Rebecca...it was so good to "see" you. I really miss your wit and hope you can stop in again real soon!!! Tracy...I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. I know how upset you are so I'm sending lots of comforting hugs to you and healing hugs to your Dad. Nanna Tina...it seems like your Mick can't catch a break. Hoping he improves quickly. Hugs. Laine...I hope the rest of your birthday was spectacular!
Have a beautiful day everyone! I'm off to make a pop-up box card for my granddaughter's birthday.
Great card, Sue, both for little ones and for those big kids (men!) too. Didn't think I'd use these word dies, but........... Thanks for very clear video instructions. TRACY - so very sad for you and your Dad, just as you've come to the end of your treatment so bravely. Try to keep strong honey, life is so random and unfair - no sense at all to be made of it. Do hope the medics can help him quickly. All you can do is be there for him, love him, and trust the experts. We're with you all the way. Hugs to Mick and June and all having a tough time.
Sue, I hope you don't mind but I just wanted to leave this message for Tracy Tracy, I'm so very sorry to hear your news, you've been through so much these last six months. Try to stay strong and just be there for your dad. Sending you caring hugs Pat
Hello Sue Another die I didn't think I needed but now realise I do. I will never get to the end of my Sue Wilson wanted dies. Tracey my heart goes out to you. I know I have only just started writing on the blog but I have followed it for sometime and know how brave you have been through your own illness.
Hello Sue, I'm sorry I didn't get in yesterday! We were at a funeral. I managed to pin the card though which was lovely! I have today's die and I got it because it was so different from anything else I had! Today's card is gorgeous. I will watch the video later! Tracy - I'm so very sorry to hear about your Dad! You just didn't need this on top of everything else! No wonder you are so upset! Wish we could give you a real hug! X Take care everyone! Love Myra xxx
Hi Sue. This is a very good card to send to people when you are not sure what type of theme they would like and would work for either gender. It is another one of those where less is more. Thanks for the video to show us how to do it.
Hi Sue Love shaker cards, this one is so jolly. You don't see anything remotely like the in the shops and the reaction you get from anyone you give one to makes them so worthwhile. Thanks for sharing. Love Deb C xx
Hi Sue, a brilliantly simple but so effective card. I usually save shakers for Christmas (mostly with fake snow or stars) but this one is just great and suitable for any age or gender.
Tracy - all I can do is send you and your dad some cyber ((((hugs)))) and hope that the doctors can help him quickly.

BETH B missing you hope your ok my friend Hug's xxx
Hi Sue, I love this card and have added the dies to my ever increasing wish list lol. Great video...you make it look so easy, Sue. When I attempt a shaker card I always seem to end up running after the sequins that have escaped lol. The results are always well worth the effort though aren't they. I hope everyone is having a good week. Today was a complete waste of time for me...off I went to town to pick up the four different meds that I ordered online. Got to Superdrug and only ONE of them had been sent through on the computer! They are really good in my local branch though and called the surgery, giving me the phone so that I could sort it out. Seems that the request wasn't completely signed off so I have to make the trip again tomorrow to pick up the rest...What a chore! I always end up spending money when I go to pick up a prescription...today was £11 in PoundLand. I think I'm staying away from there tomorrow, just a quick rush down and back home on the next bus I think :) Bejay x
I love this card, it looks like a nice fun card. I have this die and love using it but have not made a shaker card so that is going to be my next project. Another fab video too.
Fabulous card Sue. Hello my friends so sorry to have been absent so long. I really hope to get back in the groove again. I have missed you all and all of Sue's wonderful creations. Tracy, oh my dear I am so sorry to hear your Dad's news. I really wish him all the best. Extra hugs for all those dealing with hard times. Love n hugs to all xxx
Lovely, fun card and helpful video. Haven't made a shaker card for ages but I must give this one a go. The Happy die has come to my rescue several times in the last few months when I've needed a quick card. Tracy, so sorry the hear the news of your Dad. Thinking of you both. Take care everyone.
Gorgeous card, you just keep them coming.
ReplyDeleteLaine, glad you enjoyed your birthday.
NannaTina, any joy on Micks chair yet, you both need some time away from the ward life.
June, great news, at last you can see some real progress, so pleased for you.
Daily hugs to all, including our missing friends

Tracy - I'm so very sorry to hear about your Dad! You just didn't need this on top of everything else! No wonder you are so upset! Wish we could give you a real hug! X
Take care everyone! Love Myra xxx
Hi Sue. This is a very good card to send to people when you are not sure what type of theme they would like and would work for either gender. It is another one of those where less is more.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the video to show us how to do it.

Who wouldn't love to receive such a bright, colourful, fun card
ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteLove shaker cards, this one is so jolly. You don't see anything remotely like the in the shops and the reaction you get from anyone you give one to makes them so worthwhile. Thanks for sharing.
Love Deb C xx
Very pretty and very simple card.
ReplyDeleteHello Sue.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a lovely Card. I can imagine it would be really appreciated by the men in our lives. Thanks for sharing.
Best wishes
Hi Sue, a brilliantly simple but so effective card. I usually save shakers for Christmas (mostly with fake snow or stars) but this one is just great and suitable for any age or gender.
ReplyDeleteTracy - all I can do is send you and your dad some cyber ((((hugs)))) and hope that the doctors can help him quickly.

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteI love this card and have added the dies to my ever increasing wish list lol. Great video...you make it look so easy, Sue. When I attempt a shaker card I always seem to end up running after the sequins that have escaped lol. The results are always well worth the effort though aren't they.
I hope everyone is having a good week. Today was a complete waste of time for me...off I went to town to pick up the four different meds that I ordered online. Got to Superdrug and only ONE of them had been sent through on the computer! They are really good in my local branch though and called the surgery, giving me the phone so that I could sort it out. Seems that the request wasn't completely signed off so I have to make the trip again tomorrow to pick up the rest...What a chore! I always end up spending money when I go to pick up a prescription...today was £11 in PoundLand. I think I'm staying away from there tomorrow, just a quick rush down and back home on the next bus I think :)

ReplyDeleteLovely, fun card and helpful video. Haven't made a shaker card for ages but I must give this one a go. The Happy die has come to my rescue several times in the last few months when I've needed a quick card.
