For my something w/ wheels, I went w/ a Golf Cart image. To make my shaker, I die cut the white panel, put into my Misti, stamped the Golf Cart w/ Memento, colored w/ Copics, then over stamped w/ Versafine. I also did an extra of just the area behind the shaker on a scrap of white. Then I used a craft knife to cut out that area on the top version. The shaker pouch is just part of a clear envelope..the kind embellishments or stickers come in. I put some sequins in it then closed it up around any open edges. I like using these clear envelopes because they donÂ’t add a lot of bulk & are still mailable. I did add some foam tape around edges of the top panel to give the shaker just a bit of room.
HereÂ’s a little tip for you..see the brown sequins? They were actually gold..I colored them w/ a dk brown Copic (a brown Sharpie also works). I added a little pennant for the greeting since it wouldnÂ’t fit anywhere else. The green bg was stamped w/ the green ink & the Everything Golf Bg image.
thanks so much for looking! Closeups & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Shaker cards are so much fun ...to receive, not necessarily to make.. and this one is so terrific. My DS is a golfer (a really good one, who does most of his bank business on the course!), so I'll case this one for him for his next b'day! Fav'd.

The golf cart makes a fun shaker - I'm thinking the sequins are like the stars in this duffer's eyes as he envisions that hole-in-one he'll never actually see - still dreams on a day off are wonderful!
