Shaker Frame Valentine

Have you ever bought something really cool and then forget to use it?  Oh yeah, I do that all the time!  So my current "cool" thing that finally was used is the Shaker Frames (124155).  This great little project was inspired by Julie Davison.  I preferred a more standard sized card, so made mine with larger than her sample.


To make the frame, use a heart framelit from the Hearts Collection.  Cut a piece of Window Sheet and attach it to the back side of your heart.  Stamp the front with Black StazOn permanent ink.


Peel off one of the larger circles from the Shaker Frames and place it carefully around the heart shape closing off any large gaps.

Stamp your heart image from You Are Loved (w-123777 / c-123779).

Punch flowers using the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (118309) and place a Rhinestone Basic Jewel (119246) in the center of each for added bling (plus it helps the flowers shake around better!).  Place the punched flowers in the middle of your stamped image.




Peel the paper from the sticky tape and carefully place the frame over your stamped image.  You're now ready to adhere it to your card base.  

See now, wasn't that easy?  Now it's your turn!
