We are celebrating a birthday today… Paper Sweeties is turning 3! Birthday celebrations are so much fun and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to celebrate with my friends at Paper Sweeties. Debbie, the owner, and I became friends after meeting at some local stamp shows; and have bonded over our love of cute stamps and everything pink! I hope you will enjoy celebrating with all of us and check out all the blog posts, where there is sure to be some inspiring creations and some fun prizes too!
For my project, I made a fun shaker card. This was my first attempt at a shaker card and I think I am hooked… I can’t wait to try another one!
For my card, I used the ‘Birthday Wishes‘ stamp set from Pink and Main, the ‘Sending Sweet Thoughts‘ stamp set from Paper Sweeties, and some super cute flower sequins called ‘Cupcake Sprinkles‘ (appropriately named) from Paper Sweeties. I paper-pieced the lower part of the cupcake and added some Wink of Stella sparkle to the top of it (sorry it is hard to see the shine in the photo). I stamped the sentiment on the inside of the shaker card for some added interest. I hope you like the card and that it inspires you to try some shaker cards too… now get to shakin’!
I also have a fun prize to give away, so be sure to comment on this post! I will choose a random comment to win the 2 stamp sets and pack of sequins I used for my card…
I just know you are thinking of all the great birthday creations you could make with these goodies, so be sure to leave a comment below! After you leave your comment hop on over to some more blogs for the Paper Sweeties 3rd birthday celebration! Happy Birthday to Paper Sweeties!
Keep living the creative life! -Michelle

Love this card! Love shaker cards. And the paper sweeties sequins are so pretty and perfect for them. I’m new to the pink and main stamps ….I hope it’s not the start of a new addiction. Lol! Anyway, really super cute card!

Kelly Smith, you are our random winner! Please email me with your address so I can send your prizes! info@pinkandmain.com Congrats!
How exciting. Sent you my address just now…thank you
What a amazing talent you have. I found you by accident via a you tube video that showcased you stamps at a scrapbook expo. I am so excited.
Its been just over a year since I saw some of your products in a magazine. I am picky over what I buy and can remember thinking I would buy those stamps! However, we no longer have any scrapbooking stores in Toledo, just big box ones. They are very behind on what they carry. This means no Pink & Main. I started linking to the Facebok pages of companies so if/when I Iook online, I know where to look! Pink & Main is one!
I’ve been hesitant to try shaker cards but this makes me want to give it a try! The sequin collection is perfect!

Wow, I just discovered Pink and Main!! And many thanks for introducing me to Paper Sweeties! Gonna spend much time this evening checking you both out thoroughly and I have already signed up to follow you both. I have never tried a shaker card but I have to say that you have definitely inspired me with your adorable card! I have to say that I am liking what I see with the products from P & M and Paper Sweeties!! Thanks for the chance to win some new goodies!
