Shaker card: you & me

Hi..
It's been a while since I did paper crafts :) I always wanted to try out a shaker card & am absolutely excited about this first try :)
This is for my aunt who wanted a card for her anniversary to give her hubby:)
Here is the card.

I took a standard sized red cardstock for the cardbase.
Cut a white panel for the front.
I drew & cut the heart from a scrap paper to serve as a template.
Using that I've drawn & cut the hearts out from the white panel. I've stuck a piece of acetate sheet on the back side.
After Marking the position of the hearts on the red cardstock, I stamped & white embossed "you" & "me" from the hero arts stamp set.
I created the wall with foam tape around the hearts, placed the sequins & finally stuck the white panel over it with foam adhesive all around.
This is a picture of the shaker part alone.

The couples are hand drawn & fussy cut from black cardstock. I love adding hand drawn elements in my projects as they give a personal touch.
Finally added a black frame with foam tape once again.

With the envelope I made. Am loving the pink & gold (golden hearts washi tape) combination there.

Am really satisfied with the outcome & thoroughly enjoyed the process of making too :)
Hope you liked it.

Create. Have fun.

the moodboard symbolises wedding & hence I guess the couples & anniversary card go well with it. Also, the red, b&w combo from the donuts. I've stamped the words with versamark for the stamping part.

  5. Awesome shaker card. I love how you cut out those heart windows, I thought they are die cut. And your hand drawn and fussy cut couple, amazing. I agree with you , it gives a personal touch and if we have that skill of drawing our own images, then why not? :)

  18. So cool that you've hand-drawn the couple (maybe resembling the actual couple a little bit?). And a very creative shaker component. Thanks for playing at the MMCC this month.
