September 6, 2010 - Baby Rattle Card Take 2

Take 2 on my baby shaker card.  I joined a swap for specialty cards and my contribution is 4 baby shaker cards.  I just love how this turned out especially since I used my cuttlebug to make the adorable background.  I also made this card not gender specific so that the recipient can use it for a boy or girl.
Directions:
1.  Make a 4.5 x 5.5 card out out of white card stock.
2.  Cut a sheet of purple paper 4.5 x 5.5 and run through cuttlebug for the embossed image.
3.  Handle is 1 inch wide.  The length of the handle will be determined by you.
4.  Circle for Handle is 1 3/8 punch circle with a small circle punch for the center.
5.  Cut out 2 circles using transparency paper.
6.  Cut out two round circles of the same size as the transparency paper.
7.  Cut one circle in half to make the bottom piece of the rattle.
8.  Cut a circle within the other circle to make the out edge of the top part of the rattle.
9.  Use adhesive to adhere the half circle and decorate circle on one of the transparency circles.
10. Cut a ribbon to go across the circles.
11. Glue on a button with a glue dot.
12.  Turn decorated transparency paper over and  adhere (using only one side) with double sided (without leaving a gap) in small pieces around the clear view mirror.
13.  Fill with small buttoms.
14. Remove backing from double sided foam tape and adhere to other transparency circle.
15. Glue pieces together on front of card using Terrifically Tacky Tape.
