Hello Blogosphere! It’s Tiffany here today with a photo tutorial! Today, I’m showing you an easy & hassle-free way to create shaker cards using the Keepsake Pockets! There are 4 different sizes included and I’ve chosen to show you how to incorporate the smallest, 2″ x 2″ keepsake pocket.
Here are the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products I’ll be using (Keepsake Enveloples, Dodz™ Small, 3D Foam Squares- White Mix, MyStik® Permanent Strips):
1. Fill the Keepsake Envelope (2″ x 2″) with sequins and then close the small envelope by removing the small bit of non-stick paper at the self-adhesive closure.
2. Take a 2″ x 2″ die-cut (I used a leftover die-cut insert from my We R Memory Keepers Albumbs Made Easy- Inked Rose) & adhere a few sequins around the back of the window using the Dodz™ Small. Add some thin 3D Foam Squares to the back as well.
3. Remove the small non-stick sheets and adhere to the sequin-filled keepsake envelope.
4. Adhere patterned paper to your card using the MyStik® Permanent Strips, small sequins & other small elements using the Dodz™ Small, and other album insert using 3D Foam Squares to finish your card!
Here’s a close-up of the keepsake envelope shaker:
Thanks so much for stopping by & have a great rest of your week,
Supplies Used:
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L- Adhesive Dots Small, MyStik Permanent Strips, Keepsake Envelopes, 3D Foam Squares- White, Mix

I like the idea of using the envelope for the shaker. I’ve been wanting to make a shaker card but haven’t gotten up the nerve to put the adhesive around the opening and hope that the sequins stay inside or don’t get stuck to the adhesive (that’s a run on sentence if I’ve ever seen one) I’ll try this idea.
the card is very pretty. Love the butterfly. thanks for sharing.

This is so clever I know the pitfalls of making shaker cards and this looks like it takes all that stress away plus you can be assured that none of your shaker card filler will fall out which is one of the biggest problems. The card itself is so soft and pretty and thanks for your easy to follow tutorial!
