What fun! I've never done a shaker card before, and this VSN was the perfect opportunity! THe request was for a shaker card. I got the idea for the card because I was thinking of punched out flowers as the shaker part, but I wanted it to make sense. Then I saw some small clothespins I had, and voila! I pictured the laundry literally blowing in the wind, just like the flowers (a lovely summer memory).
Ironically, my small clothespins were still way too big for my laundry, so in the end I drew in the laundry line (admitedly, a quicker solution). And the laundry hanging made me think of the "Hang in There" saying--a good reminder at most times . Enjoy!

Such a sweet card and a sweet memory! I love the way it all came together. Thanks so much for playing in my challenge!
