Mini Valentine Shaker Notes

Hello! It’s an exciting day for me to share some Mini Valentine Shaker Notes…these are little note card sized shakers that are oh-so-sweet. I hope you enjoy!

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

These note cards measure 3.5″ x 4.25″ so they are a nice little size to fit into a lunch bag or a briefcase! (Wink*) I love how easy they are to build up with the polaroid die from Whimsy Stamps. I will show you in the video how to make the “walls” to keep the shaker bits inside the shaker, and how to add the acetate topper.

I used a variety of stamps and dies to decorate the fronts of each card, all images that I LOVE!

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!






This Polaroid Die fits a slimline card, and for the mini cards I cut it apart to build up the shakers. It is also a cute design to make a slimline card, so I have included a sample of that here:

I hope you enjoyed these projects today! I wish you a very happy Valentine’s Day (aka Hugs Day!) filled with love. See you soon with more cards!

Llots of Llove (Llama Valentine)

Hello, today I have a card with Llots of Llove: a Llama Valentine! Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

I just love the Coffee Cup Shaker Die…which I used on this card, but did not turn it into a shaker card. I have used this die many times in the past, and was excited to create with it again in a different way.

The sentiment is from the Perfect Blend stamp set, and that Llama is from the Llamazing Llamas stamp set. Such a cute llama!!

I blended Oxide inks on some kraft cardstock first, then I used the same stencil on some white cardstock for the coffee cup sleeve.

The little tag was perfect for the “llots of llove” stamp from the same Llama set. I hope you smile at a llama with his tea cup to go!

Churro Love

Hello! Today I have a very special Churro Love card and video to share! It’s a quick video, so I hope you will check it out below or on YouTube:

This is a sweet little new stamp set called “Churrific” and it makes me hungry for churros! Lol. Sadly, I just found out that my Costco is no longer serving churros at the snack bar. So I guess all my churros will be in CARD FORM! (which is better for my diet anyway…ha ha).

I’ll be back soon with more cards to share!

You’re the Beary Best

Hello! Today I have a Valentine Card to share with a new bear stamp set that I love: You’re the Beary Best!

Today I colored up these cute images with Prismacolor colored pencils. Watch my video to see my tips for coloring with colored pencils and a blending stump. I just adore these images.
