You Are So Lovely Shaker Card with Woodland Scene

A project from our live show THE THURSDAY DROP - Latest Products from Toni - Broadcast 6th August 2026 · 08/06/2026

Create a beautiful shaker card featuring an elegant woodland scene with a tree silhouette aperture. This charming design combines layers of vellum, watercolour backgrounds in soft pinks and purples, and delicate fussy-cut woodland elements to create depth behind the decorative die-cut window. The shaker element is filled with glitter and embellishments that move freely, adding an interactive touch to your handmade card.
