Birthday Dragon Shaker

   


    Hello...this was such a fun card to make!  I love shaker cards, but I have struggled with them in the past.  I could never get the right depth of foam and this would prevent my shaker bits from moving around.  I would get frustrated and actually stopped making them.  Then, along comes Waffle Flower!  I recently discovered Waffle Flower Foam Strips and they have been a game changer for me!  They are 1/8" thick!!!  The package that I purchased contains 3 sheets with assorted widths and lengths...perfect for shaker cards!!!  It looks like other companies are coming out with thicker foam tapes as well.  Heffy Doodle has a roll of foam tape that they are advertising as thicker than other brands.  I will be ordering a roll in the near future to compare.  I will let you know how it compares to Waffle Flower.

    I colored this adorable Amanda Jayne Designs dragon with Copic markers.  I used cardstock from Doodlebug Hip Hip Hooray collection and die cut the frame using Sunny Studio Fancy Frames square dies.  I printed out the sentiment and die cut it with Stitched Fishtail Sentiment Strips dies from My Favorite Things.
