Pair of Valentine's Shaker Cards Plus Bonus CAS Cards

I love shakers cards, so I made a pair with a simple design that really makes the shaker part of the card shine!  Then with the leftover die and scraps of paper I made another pair of cards that so super elegant and a perfect card for the season of love!  Lets start with the shaker cards first.

Here is a video on how I made these shaker cards.

I stuck everything down with the Xyron Creative Station Lite.  It can make just about anything stick to anything else.  For the shaker cards I ran the the background papers, die cuts, Dura-lar film, and even the thick mat board I used to raise up the film to make room fro the shaker bits.  Even with the elements have a bit of thickness to them they ran through the machine like a charm and everything is super secure!

This is the reason I love the Xyron Creative Station Lite!  It is super versatile.  I can pull out one machine and it does it all and works with so many different materials.  

I had some elements left over from making the shaker cards, and while I had everything out why not?!?!  Here is the best part, I did not need to pull out another adhesive for the sequins, I just ran them through the Xyron Creative Station Lite and they stick like a charm!

Another little plus for the creative station, you can also get other inserts to make magnets and laminate!!
