Fun Pocket Shaker Cards for Tres Jolie

Welcome Back!

So happy you're here with me today as we create three fun and beautiful cards and two shaker cards with this wonderful Card Kit for January 2026. I have the step by step below and the process video tutorial linked right here for you. I also have the Card Kit linked as well.

2026 January Card, Tag and More Kit

To begin punch out the two pockets with the hearts in the middle from the paper collection. Then cut out 4 acetate pieces 2 1/4 x 2 1/2 inches. Glue one acetate piece inside each of the little pockets. These pockets are going to be shakers.

Next fold and glue down the flaps.

Next place foam strips along the edge of the pockets. I did a double layer of foam strips.

After you place down the foam strips add your shaker bits and then lay

the second piece of acetate on top of the foam strips.

For the second pocket I added foam strips around the heart. Then added the shaker bits and then adhere down the second acetate on top of the foam strips.

Cut 2 pieces of scrap pattern paper 3x3, Score 3/8 inches left, right and bottom.

Then where the two score lines intersect cut the diagonally to form a pocket.

Then fold the in the scored flaps and turn over and place glue on the backside of the pocket.

Place glue on the flaps of the pocket

Adhere the pocket onto the front of the card.

Card 1

Here is the first card finished with the pocket. I cut out tag from the cut a-part sheet and placed it inside the pocket. I also added in the flowers from the card kit and added in the flat back purple gems along the top of the card. The ribbon is from my stash.

Card 2

For the second shaker pocket you will use the second piece of pattern paper that is 3x3, Score 3/8 inches left, right and bottom. Then where the two score lines intersect cut the diagonally to form a pocket, glue the back and adhere on the acetate and then add glue to the flaps.

Adhere the heart shaker pocket down on the front of the card.

Here is the second card. I cut out a tag from the cut a-part page and added flowers to the front and back. I also added some purple ribbon from my stash to the front of the card. I used one of the little banners with a sentiment and placed across the front of the card.

Card 3

For card #3 I punched out one of the small envelopes and then cut out a tag and then I placed one of the smaller cards inside the envelope. I also added the purple gems around the scalloped sentiment and the small tags.

With Card 3 I adhered the little envelop on top of the card along with flowers from my stash.

Here are all three cards together.
