Description:
Yesterday I came across a great Shaker card and thought: `I CAN DO THAT WITH AN ATC!!` So, for this swap we will be creating Shaker ATC's with an open theme. Your ATC must have a 'window' with moving pieces when shaken (in the photo above, the moving pieces are the snowflakes/glitter). For more information, please search "shaker card". Questions for me? Do not hesitate to message me. Here are the rules: 1 ATC for 1 partner. ATC sizing applies: 2.5x3.5. 4.8 or higher rating for this swap. No flakers allowed. If you sign up, follow through. Recent 1's or 3's are a no-no. Newbies are very welcome with a completed profile + 5 mailed swaps under your belt. Please provide your best work of art. Slapping stickers on cardstock will not cut it folks! Once received, be kind, rate promptly. Happy Swapping!

As soon as I make sure I can make this I'll join. Oh an I want to complain, thanks to the image you used, I now have another craft site to keep me busy when I should be doing housework or cooking. Thanks a heap! Then again, thanks! LOL!

No complaining Yomousey! I just got you out of housework and cooking!! Incase anyone asks, tell them you have too much to do and you do not have time for housework. It didn't work for me, but it may for you! :)

PS: I think the best friend for you (all that participates or those thinking about it) on this swap is going to be pop-dots/foam squares. I made a mock shaker and it was a bomb (my pieces didn't move much). Pop-dots are the key!! I did some re-vamping with those and had GREAT SUCCESS!!

Just a helpful hint for those unsure where to start.

Have fun and I look forward to swapping with you! Teresa

You can actually purchase specially precut foam circles and squares in several sizes for shakers by going to the blog, Confessions of a Ribbon Addict. Jody sells sheets of foam so you can cut your own with punches and dies too! Good prices, fast service. NAYY.

I saw this and just had to try it!!! I love it!!! I actually had to cut my own glitter because I didn't have any silver... Loved IT!!! I don't yet have 5 swaps but I look forward to jumping in on one like this in the future!!! Thank you so much for challenging me!!! God bless and keep you!!!

At first, I thought this was talking about the religious "Shakers"
