This Valentine's shaker card .

I knew I wanted to create an easel card .

I decided to make it into a shaker as well , so that was my starting point . 

I saw these little owls from the 

Too Cute By Jessica 

Valentine Sweeties file , and fell in love !!! 

I also made this 3D snowflake lantern 

that I turned into a Valentine's Day themed lantern instead .

Another close up of those little owls and the sentiment which goes perfect !!! 

Here are both of the projects side by side :

Right now I am obsessed with shaker cards . I think they are super fun and cute !!! I chose that as my starting point while designing this card . Both the front and the inside are shakers. 

Here is the whole card . 

I used a card base from the 

and added a circle to the center ( I did not weld my circle ) 

to make the cutout for the shaker card . 

This is the shaker on the inside. 

I used the leftover circles from the front of the card .

The birthday balloons and cake are from 

Too Cute By Jessica

The background is stamped with the phrase just for you ,

from the Craftin' Desert Divas

In honor of her birthday,  I created this layout for her . I used the super cute
Craftin' Desert Divas

Simply Said Stamp Set ,

I embossed the phrases Happy birthday and Wish Big using gold embossing powder. I also used the Tag It stamp set and coordinating SVG as well , to create the tags for the Wish Big sentiment .

It is available for purchase here .

Happy Birthday card .

Happy Monday everyone !!! 

Today we start a new challenge at

BBTB2 .

The theme this week is Cricut Letters or phrase .

Since tomorrow is my sister Angies birthday , 

I thought it would be perfect to create a card with

a birthday sentiment . I use the Fancy Frames

and Create A Critter 2  cartridges for my sentiment . 

Here is a close up of the phrase " Happy Birthday " welded to the frame . I added pink and gold embossing , to add a little more texture. 

Here is the inside of it . 

It is great for a gift card and a handwritten sentiment . 

I hope you are able to join us for this fun challenge , make sure to visit my design team sisters for wonderful inspiration.
