LOVE these Keitha! Brilliant.

What did you use for the circle template? I watched a video where a gal used metal cookie cutters for her shapes.

I think I read about using cookie cutters too. Something to try - heaven knows I never bake cookies! I have an old set of nested QuicKutz scalloped circle dies. It worked out that the outside edge of the next-smaller die was a good size to use as a guide for the fuze tool to go around on the bigger scalloped pocket.

It ended up being much easier than I imagined! I still have all my Christmas supplies at hand which helped tremendously. The clothes pins are just there to hold them closed for the photo.

Thanks for playing, Pam.

Which reminds me, Debbie hasn't shared the ones she did at the beach. She made a slew of cards and used Keitha's Fuse tool and also used real shaker card thingies. Oh, Debbie....yoo hoo??

She did make quite a few.
Mine are made with pockets from baseball card protectors.

I've been crazy busy, but I will. Things will go back to normal now that graduation and all the grad parties and birthday parties are out of the way. Today we are going to Riverton for VA and stopping at greenhouses along the way.

I was just teasing you, I knew you were really busy this week after your week at the beach.

I worked on these at reCreate. They were a lot of fun. My granddaughter, Ashley said they reminded her of Frozen the movie.
