365 Cards - Let's Make Some Noise!

I have had never made a shaker card before, so for today's 365 Cards challenge, I felt like I needed to give it a try.  Over and over I kept thinking of these "I Spy" bean bag toys my sister made for all of the grandkids last Christmas.  Here's a link to some similar ones, but my sister made them in all sorts of cute shapes (my daughter Adelle got a duck shaped one).  That was my springboard.  My first attempt was a complete failure, so here's my second attempt!  I was also inspired by rice and its association with marriage

 I added some Martha Stewart crystal marble glitter to the rice to give it a nice shimmer.  I also used Martha Stewart's San Serif Alpha stamps for the "i spy..." and the "one heart" on the inside.  The "You & Me" is a rub-on from American Crafts.  The "forever" is hand-written, then the little heart stamp is from Papertrey Ink's Around and About Sentiments set.  I hope this will inspire you to think outside of the box and try your own shaker card!
