Now let's talk cards!
I'm always obsessed with shaker cards but lately I'm especially smitten with shaker cards made by wrapping scrap plastic around a background to make a pocket! It's a great way to use stamp & die packaging and it's super easy!
For these cards I used the new PPP Utility Vehicles set. I LOVE the mail truck and some of the little images make fantastic shaker bits!
You can see the whole process in this video...

P.S. Do you like the bright & bold coral background or the pale blue one better? I still can't decide, LOL!

Your cards are wonderful. I'm envious of crafters who make shaker cards, because I've never created one myself, but I think I'm inspired to give it a try.
Both of your cards and fun and I really like the sentiment. As far as a favorite, it's hard to decide; I think the red/orange background card is colorful and the truck stands out a little more, but I really like the white card too. The shaker in both brings each card to life.
Thank you for sharing your creativity.
Absolutely adorable little truck! I LOVE the smiley faces! Too cute!
These are SO cute! I love how the little envelopes are flying away.
Such a clever shaker card. So cute. I can't decide which one I like better!
Really cute to add the happy face emojis, too. These are very cute. And the orange sky is great!
Absolutely adorable shaker card! Thanks for the very helpful video!
I just finished watching your YouTube video and Wow! You are so clever! I haven't made a shaker card...yet LOL I will certainly give this a try and start saving those plastics!! Thank you for sharing this!
Your shaker cards are absolutely adorable! I love them both!
These are adorable!!

Hi Carly!! Amazing as always 😍 I really like the red one! The bold really works with the shaker bits 🤩 off to copy you now 🤭
Cute cards! Ibb be love them both!
Awesome card! so cute! love that postal van!
Great design and color combos! Really cute cards!
I'm also having a tough time deciding between backgrounds. I think the greyish blue makes me focus more on the vehicle. I think the coral makes me focus on that gorgeous color. Good news: there is no bad choice!! Great work!
