Today I’m excited to share a fun and interactive card project using the brand-new Seeds & Such Card Kit from Taylored Expressions! This kit is packed with charming, garden-themed elements that are perfect for creating cheerful handmade cards—and I couldn’t resist turning them into seed packet shaker cards.
These little shakers are not only easy to put together, but they also add a playful, dimensional element to your designs. Whether you’re sending a note of encouragement or a handmade hello, these cards are sure to brighten anyone’s day.
There are a couple shopping options for you. You can pick up the entire bundle which includes the kit and coordinating items, just the kit and then the coordinating items separately.
VIDEO
I have a video tutorial walking through exactly how I created them. You can view that video down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.
All the supplies I’m using are linked in the video description on Youtube and a visual supply listed is provided at the end of this blog post.
For today’s project, I focused on turning the seed packet die into a shaker window. I backed the opening with clear acetate and filled it with a mix of ice cubes and holographic stars. It’s such a fun surprise for the recipient to see all that sparkle shake around!
To decorate the outside of the packets, I used the layering stencils and added soft ink blending for a natural, garden-fresh look. The sentiments fit perfectly on the stamped label, and I love how easy it was to mix and match the pieces in the kit.
I had so much fun putting these together and love how they turned out. If you’re looking for a playful, garden-themed project or a new way to use your shaker supplies, this kit is such a great choice.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope this inspired you to shake things up (literally!) in your next cardmaking session.
