Coffee Shaker Goodness

Good Coffee is a Pleasure

Good Friends are a Treasure

Hey y'all!  I am popping on in today to share this coffee shaker card with you.  I used several items from This Calls for Confetti and if you click on that link, it will take you to their site and benefit me as it is an affiliate link.  Thanks in advance for helping me out; this way I am able to show you more crafty fun items!

Okay so here is what I did, I took the circle dies that come with 

1) 'round shaker pouch & dies starter kit' AND

2) '3  1/2" full front shaker card pocket starter kit' 

& figured out which circle die would work with the bauble shaker.

I used the corresponding die for the 'Bauble Bubble - large round' shaker circle & cut a hole into my vertical top folding card base (slightly smaller than A2 size).

Secondly, I glued a sheet of the 'A2 size acetate' atop the card base; carefully trimming excess and while that dried,  cut the same size hole in the 'coffee drinks paper' & glued it to the front of the card; over the acetate.

Also I picked a cafe scene from the 6x6 paper pack and glued in on the inside and trimmed off the edges.

Third, filling the bauble bubble with the following shaker items:

Opalescent Tropical Melon Sequin Confetti

Gala Diamond and Pearl Mix

Satin Chocolate Sequin Confetti

Satin Bronze Sequin Confetti

Opalescent White Sands Sequin Confetti 

After all the items were inside, I used the 'It's no secret anti-static tool' to wipe the acetate off & brushed the excess powder off with a small paint brush. I peeled the adhesive backing off the bauble bubble and secured it to the acetate circle. 

I was going to cover up the base but decided to leave it as it because you can see the neat cafe scene thru the bauble.

Last thing to do was trim one of the sentiments from the sheet (available for FREE if you purchase the coffee time die or stencil). 

It was inked up with some distress walnut stain ink and popped up via double-sided adhesive foam strip.

Five sequins were randomly placed around the card and glued on.

Viola! 

Shaker goodness to share with a friend! 

Thanks for popping on by today!  It is so blustery here, I think I will go pour myself another cup of coffee! 

Cheers my coffee loving peeps!

Love, LIZARD xoxoxo
