Step 1

Use a paper trimmer to cut and score your card from light teal cardstock.
TIP: Determine the size of the card you want based on the size of the shaker dome and the envelope you wish to use.

Step 2

Plan where you want to place your shaker dome on the card front, then use the template that comes with the domes and trace it onto the card.

Step 3

Use your X-ACTO® knife and cut out the window.
TIP: Be sure to cut on some scrap cardboard (or a self-healing mat).

Step 4

Cut a strip of pink cardstock to the width of the card. Cut a strip of floral scrapbook paper slightly smaller and adhere it to that strip. Set aside.

Step 5

Cut a strip of floral scrapbook paper twice the width of the cardstock strips. Adhere it into place across the bottom portion of the card under the window. Adhere the remaining cardstock strip vertically down the side of the card to the right of the window, then adhere the layered strip across the top, above the window.

Step 6

Stamp the sentiment in pink ink on a piece of white cardstock. Trim it out to fit the front of the card. Mat it with extra cardstock from the card.

Step 7

Adhere the sentiment to bottom portion of the card using foam squares to raise it up slightly.

Step 8

Trace the dome onto the pink cardstock and cut out. Now, add glitter to the dome, peel off the protective paper from the back side of the dome, then lay the cardstock over it to seal in the glitter.

Step 9

Peel off the protective paper on the other side of the dome and insert it into the hole from the inside of the card. Press around the dome to make sure it is secured in the card.
