Today I'm sharing a pair of cards using an adorable new stamp and die set, and turned them into shakers with the help of a couple other dies and embellishment mixes from the release!


I love these happy little shakers! And the new Pocket Ponies set makes me think of my childhood My Little Pony toys - I still have some of them that my daughters played with when they were little, and now other kids (nieces, nephews, etc...) that come to our house play with. They really are timeless! I started off by die cutting one of the Scalloped Circles dies and then die cutting the Solo Smile die to create the shaker window. I trimmed off one side to fit the edges of my cardbase, then filled each shaker with one of the new embellishment mixes - Sea Star and Tidal Wave. I added secondary sentiments, and then the cute little ponies from Pocket Ponies, both simply stamped in black with no coloring, to let the color from the shakers pop and steal the show! Finished off with a couple rows of Dazzling Gems in clear to accent! Here is a closer look at these cards:

  5. These adorable little cards took me on a walk down memory lane. The Ponies remind me of the "My Little Pony" my daughter played with as a little girl, she would have been so thrilled to received a card like or similar to these and the bonus of it being a shaker card would have thrilled her all the more, we all know shaker cards delight people of all ages. Simply awesome cards.
