Here is a great tutorial that you can check out with step-by-step instructions (and photos!!) of this is a technique you want to try! Check it out here. Most shaker cards are "filled" with microbeads, but you can use anything! Coffee grounds, glitter, I've used fake "snow" in santa's beard... possibilities are endless. Anything small. I have a couple to show you:
Here's that pink & red combo again... and a touch of orange!
Megan wanted a birthday card for her friend Kenzie, so pink & purple was perfect!It takes some time, and a few extra supplies, but it will definitely WOW! :)

Hi Jen, I want to buy some nestibilites and need your help. I was thinking I would like (to start with) the square and round nestabilities. I want to use them for cards...would I buy the small packages for the cards or the large nestabilities? I have never actually seen them in person, so that is why I am wondering. What ones/sizes do you use the most?
Wow! Nice cards :) BTW your link to the tutorial didn't work. Thought you might want to know.

OK. Got the link working now, I hope. Thanks for letting me know.
Kelly - My favorites are the lare scallop squares (these are the ones you can make the smaller cards with - too cute!). The rectangles I find too big (have 'em, don' really use them). Circles are great too. I think my circles are the small ones, but really there's only a 1/4" difference I think between the small/large.
happy shopping!! :)
