How to Make a LOVE Shaker Card for Valentine’s Day

February 8, 2025 by Heather Holbrook

This Valentine’s Day card is a terrific example of how to design a shaker card with out needing shaker specific products! 

Christy used products from Pretty Pink Posh to create this wonderful LOVE shaker card for Valentine’s Day. For the shaker element she used a die cut of the word love that also cuts out the center of the letters. She cut this out several times from red cardstock and glued them stacked on top of each other to create the wells for the shaker. She did this on top of a solid word cut from pink and then she filled it with tiny pink, red and white beads. She added one last layer with acetate to finish the shaker portion. For the base she added a white scalloped panel with two different border dies on pink cardstock, added the shaker and then some pretty die cut flowers.

Visit the Christy Gets Crafty blog to watch her video tutorial.
