Isn't this just the sweetest little card...I really like combining 2 different designer prints like this and the colors are soo fun together. For some reason I am always partial to plaids....
I was trying to think outside the box for things to put inside the shaker frames and I thought cute little bows would be interesting...and I used our Baker's Twine to tie these little guys into bows. And boy are they LITTLE! It didn't take too long to tie these...since I only needed a few (and I did it while supervising my boys homework time - - better than TV) I don't think I'd pick these to make in bulk, though, that's for SURE :) The one drawback...they don't actually shake. I assume the baker's twine has too much static and it holds them right in place. It totally looks like I glued them in place, but I didn't. They are just suspended right in mid air.
Next time, I might try our 1/8th inch taffeta ribbon. The delicate ribbon will be cute.
A little side view...just in case you didn't believe me that it's another shaker card! HA!! Remember I have a lot of shaker cards to share...I had fun for a whole week focusing on just shaker frames and mica flakes!
Happy Stampin'
