I got very inspired watching your video. In trying to make regular shaker cards with Assisted Living residents, I decided to cut apart the mini photo albums that holds 4 x 6 photos. We cut pictures out of magazines and greeting cards and then added the sequins, glitter and micro beads. Invisible tape across the bottom worked great and isn't very visible.
First of all...this is the most genius idea!!!! Thank you so much for sharing! Second...thank you for showing me how to punch for my planner without having the happy planner punch!!!! I knew you could do it, but the way you did it was so much easier than I would have done it.
I found this old video on your channel today and I'm so pleased I did . I just love these ideas and I cant wait to try them out. you are so creative. Tfs.
Good evening from South Gate California. Great techniques and tutorial. All of the shackers came out really pretty. I just got a happy planner and didnt know what to add in there. love this. Thank you for sharing your blessed talent for new crafters like me.
I did the shaker bookmark and the bags today. Followed your directions and both worked like a charm. Made them for my 8 year old granddaughters Bible Quiz binder journal. She is totally in love with both!! Thanks for sharing Tara!
+Angela Perkins Yay! That is so awesome! I'm so glad you found my tutorial helpful. They were fun, right? Who knew a mistake could turn into all this...lol! Thanks for watching!
+Sherrie Blische Thank you! Yep, this technique can be used to make cards or add to pocket letters, flip books etc.. the possibilities are endless. Tfw!
Hi Tara...I know these videos are older... but I just needed to tell you that you are one of the most talented people I have seen ever...your creativity amazes me!! You make some really beautiful things... I hope you will continue to do these videos... Thank you for everything you do!! 🎀
You are amazingly creative!!! So incredibly inspiring!!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!!! So very giving of you!!! Love your videos!!! Also, I love what you wrote in the description box! Very profound and thought provoking!!! I agree!!! I might have to "steel" from you. LOL. Hugs and blessings!!! Andi
+Andi Rozdzynski (Malakai's Angels) Thank you so much Andi, I truly appreciate your kind words! I felt the need to share that because it's very frustrating when hours, days and sometimes weeks are spent working on and perfecting an idea, which I share so freely and some people who feel it's okay to take credit for that original idea and never mention where their inspiration came from. However I enjoy creating and inspiring others so I hope you do give it a try and create something beautiful! Tfw!
I totally understand your frustration! Just goes to show others ethics and who they are. Very sad! I appreciate all your hard work, talent and generosity as many of us do! Please don't let "the others" get you down, you're AMAZING!!! Thank you for who you are! Big hugs and blessings!!! Andi
Tara girly you so rocked those pockets and shakers.. they are soo super cute...love them! you inspired me too pull out my happy planner last month after it sat here for months smh...now im inspired to make some pockets and bookmarks...thanks so much for the tutorial girly and sharing..cant wait to try this.. hugs Kim
+kimpossible Thank you so much Kim! I hope you give them a try, It was so much fun finding different things to laminate. I had the most fun with the shakers, of course...lol! Thanks for stopping by, hugs!
You are undoubtedly one of the most creative artists on UA-cam! I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate you sharing your talent and innovative ideas with those of us who are less fortunate! I wish I had a tenth of your creativity but I'm always happy to see a new video from you! Someday, when I have all the equipment, I may try this idea! *big TX hug* TFS!!
Was contemplating if I should get a laminator just to make my own cover for my happy planner but with all the awesome projects you did...I'm sold on getting one. Thank you for sharing. Subscribing to your channel.
+sscrafter1 Thanks Tammy! Yes, the possibilities are endless and you can make the bookmarks as wide/narrow/tall/short as you like. I laminated a large clear bag to make a whole shaker page, just waiting on my 10mm sequins to arrive so I can fill it. Hope you give these ideas a try, can't wait to see what you come up with! Tfw!
beautiful creativity! . . my fave is the shaker with the paper inside, it would be even prettier with added sequins to the other side of the paper too. also at the top where the washi tape is added i think i would end it where the pouch ends instead of extending it over the line of ring holes. Your creativity is inspiring, tfs. 👍
omg....I have a laminator at home thats been in my closet for YEARS and I've been trying to decide what to do with it! You R awesome! cant wait to get home and drag it out of the closet and start laminating!
Tara, you are the ultimate creator in the shaker world! I absolute,y adore what you came up with. I love that you are so willing to share but I really love how simp,e you make it all. Da bomb!!!!! You did that my friend. I am going to give it a try. Thank you, thank you, thank you Madam Shaker Queen! Smooches! Veronica
I'm so excited to try this, i found a big office sized box of laminating sheets at a thrift store for a few bucks. I actually bought them before I bought my laminator 😋 haven't used them yet but this is a great reason to break out my new stuff!! Lol thank you for the great ideas!! 💕hugs!! Deanna
WOW The shakers and laminated bags are awesome. I love it. I am going to give it a try. I also love your nails ......very very pretty....TFS.....Alisha
Girl you are genius! I don't do planners but I do use book marks. Yes I still read books the old fashioned way. Now where you put the clear tape, could you use the fuse tool? Oh and the music was jamming honey and I was dancing as I watched, lol. I think I might buy myself a laminator so I can laminate away, ha! Tfs Darlene 😊
+Darlene Morales Thank you Darlene! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I actually did try to fuse the top but it wouldn't melt through the lamination enough to seal it. I figure if I want to use my fuse, I'll stick with the photo sleeves but it was fun to come up with another way to make shakers without it, lol! Tfw!
Thank you for your response .... I found the video where you get your sequins right after I sent comment ... & I've placed an order ... So happy I found you channel 😊😊🌸🌸
Hey Tara! Beautiful shakers! Great ideas! I bought a Xyron "cold" laminating machine so many years ago. It seals "ok", but leaves bubbles. I may have to dust it off and give this a try. tfs...Hugs, Christine
+shabbypinkhouse Thanks Christine! you should, they were a lot of fun to make. I wanted to test out the self sealing laminating sheets but didn't have time. I may experiment with those next. Tfw!
Hi ! Once again just love your creativeness!!! ❤️ Can't wait to try this!! I'm afraid once I start I won't be able to stop!! Thanks for the tutorial!!!
Girl, I wanna live in your brain! LOL! This is genius! I love it. I will definitely make some. Thanks for the tutorial! Btw...hubby enjoyed watching your tut too and liked your cocktail of sequins. =) Tfs. Hugs.
+BeadyBomBom Elizabeth Lol! No you don't, unless you like lots of sleepless nights and being up at 3am creating...which actually isn't so bad, I think my best ideas come to me in the middle of the night when the house is still...hahaha! Thank you so much, tell hubby thanks too. My favorite part of the whole process is making my sequin "cocktails". Thanks for stopping by, can't wait to see what you come up with!
As a "new" laminator, I absolutely 💖 your video! Thank you for sharing and helping out a "newbie" 62 yr old crafter..👍💖🌹🙋
