Frequently asked questions

How does a shaker card work?

You sandwich a clear acetate window between the card front (with a cutout) and a back panel, with a foam tape "frame" on all four sides creating a shallow cavity. The confetti lives in that cavity and slides around when the card moves.

What software opens an SVG file?

Cricut Design Space, Silhouette Studio, Glowforge App, xTool Creative Space, Inkscape, or Adobe Illustrator.

Can I mail a shaker card?

Yes, but it'll cost extra postage at the post office because of the thickness — usually around the cost of a non-machinable letter. Worth it for the wow factor.
