"First Tooth" Scrapbook Page by Christina Gibson
Making a Tooth-Shaped Shaker Box
Materials Needed
  White cardstock
  Coordinating cardstock or pattern paper
  Clear page protector or sheet of acetate
  Scissors
  Pen
  Foam adhesive 1/8” – ¼” thick
  Small tooth-shape punch
  Acid-free adhesive
 
Instructions
  1. Create the tooth shaker box shape by free-hand drawing a large tooth shape or use a die cut or jumbo punch. Make one tooth out of white cardstock (front of shaker box) and a second matching shape out of another color cardstock or pattern paper (back of shaker box).
  2. Cut a window in the white tooth and adhere a piece of clear acetate or page protector over the opening. Outline the back piece of the shaker box with the foam adhesive around the outside edge of the tooth where the window will fit and on lower portion of tooth.
  3. Punch out small tooth punches as filler for the shaker box. Place filler inside the foam outline on the back side of the box. Adhere the front side of the tooth box with the window on top. Be sure that the front side of the window is facing out. The tooth punches will float freely inside the shaker box. Outline tooth with pen to accent and adhere to page.
