Trailing Grace Elegance & Hexagon Shaker Magic | Rachel Alvarado

Trailing Grace Elegance & Hexagon Shaker Magic | Rachel Alvarado

16 Feb 2026 0 Comments

Hello friends! It's Rachel here with a sparkly shaker card that features the beautiful new Trailing Grace product suite combined with the Essentials: Nested Double Stitched Hexagon Dies and Lattice Glow Coverplate Die.

I love the elegant cascading foliage of the Trailing Grace florals and think they drape beautifully around geometric-shaped die cuts.

*Disclaimer: All products used are linked below as clickable images. If a product isn’t listed, it’s been discontinued.

How to recreate this card:

1.  Trim a piece of mint green card stock to 4.25" x 11" and score it at 5.5" along the 11" side to create a top-folding, vertical card base.

2. Die cut a piece of white card stock with the Lattice Glow Coverplate Die and adhere it to the mint green base with liquid adhesive. 

3.  Die cut six hexagon frames using the largest and third largest Double Stitched Hexagon Dies and adhere five of them together, again using liquid adhesive for a secure hold.

4.  Add the dimensional hexagon frame to the center of your card base.

5.  Ink blend one of the negative die cuts from the hexagon frames with Sparkling Rose Ink and place this piece inside the hexagon frame onto the card base.

6.  Add some shaker embellishments (I used Pinkfresh Iridescent Clear Drops) and seal off the shaker frame with a hexagon-shaped piece of clear acetate.

7.  Use the Trailing Grace Stencils and Pinkfresh Inks to ink blend some florals.

  • Stencil 1: Mint
  • Stencil 2: Emerald
  • Stencil 3: Sparkling Rose/Bubble Gum

8. Use the coordinating Trailing Grace Die Set to die cut the ink-blended images.   

9.  Add the florals to the last hexagon frame that had been set aside and tuck them partially behind the frame.  Make sure to cut off any excess stem pieces.

10.  Adhere the final frame (along with the flowers) to your card base on top of the dimensional hexagon frame with embellishments.

11. Heat emboss your sentiment (I used one from the Room for Joy Stamp Set) onto a strip of black card stock with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder.

12.  Die cut the sentiment with the coordinating Room for Joy Die Set and glue your sentiment to the front of the card.

I hope you enjoyed my card today!  I would love to see what you create!  Make sure to tag us on Instagram with your personal creations using these products!
