DIY Valentines Love Shaker Jar

Finally, January is nearly over! This month has felt like it would never end and I am definitely looking forward to February, the days will get lighter, pancake day (I LOVE pancakes) and Valentine's Day.

I'm not much of a Valentine's person but I do love pretty patterned paper and will take any excuse to create a shaker card!

Paper Addicts Forever & Always Card


To create this Cricut Made Card you will need:


  • Paper Addicts Forever & Always 
  • Dovecraft Adhesive Glitter Paper
  • Acetate
  • Sequins
  • Craft foam
  • Double sided tape
  • Gems
  • 6" x 6" card blank

First you will need to cut your background paper to the same size as your card blank (6" x 6") - I used the Love Hearts paper but pick your favourite and then stick to the card blank using the double sided tape.

Next cut a rectangle (6" x 3") from a complementary patterned paper - I chose to use the pink flowers and stick to the card using craft foam.

Now it's time to cut out your shaker jar! Open your Cricut Design Space and start a new project, in images search for Love Mason Jar (#MD7260A) and add to your project. In layers select the back layer and duplicate (this is for your acetate).
Resize the image to a height of 5" and click make it!

Cut out the outline of the jar with the Dovecraft Adhesive Glitter Paper, then cut out the background in a paper from the Paper Addicts Forever Always pad and in actate. 

Stick the jar outline cut to the acetate to create the front of the shaker, on the back of the acetate attach craft foam to the edge (make sure to leave no gaps). Once done add some sequins and stick to the back patterned paper.
Finally attache the bow! Now your Love Shaker Jar is complete

Attach it to your card using the craft foam and finish with some gems.

First Edition Making Memories Card

I could spend hours just looking through the Cricut Design Space, there is so much inspiration to be had and so many different projects! Whilst scrolling through the Design Space one Saturday afternoon I found the 'Hexagon Quilt Card', a cute card designed to look like a quilt. As soon as I saw it I thought of my mum, she is loves sewing and has recently started quilting classes, and it is her birthday soon. I decided to make the card using the First Edition Making Memories Paper Pad. This fun paper pad has quite a modern palette of pinks, purples and mint green with glitter accents. Adorned with beautiful hand lettering and elements including florals, hearts, love letters, and geometric patterns – it seemed perfect to create this Quilt Birthday Card. Firstly I found the Quilt Card Design on Cricut Design Space (Hexagon Quilt Card) and then picked which patterns to choose. I choose 5 different patterns from the Making Memories paper pad and teamed these up with a lila...
