Digital shaker elements?

One of the elements I love in physical scrapbooking is shaker elements. There's something about the colorful glitter, words, cute animals or other elements inside that little shaker-flair or shaker-shape that is so fun, I feel like a kid again.

Made me wish there was a digital equivalent, with a variety of choices of inside elements to fit myriad themes. Has anyone seen anything like this?

I've been thinking about making something like this for a while but wasn't sure if digital scrappers would want to use them (since they lose the movement and tactile fun of the physical version). Lori, do you have any physical versions you can link to, to show me what you're thinking of and how you like to use them? Pics of paper layouts where you've included shakers, for example?

I make and sell digital shaker tags all the time and people LOVE them. you just need to add a little dimension to a pocket album pocket and fill it with beads and such and it will look pretty realistic on a printed page.

Thanks for sharing your board Lori. I'm a bit obsessed with making shaker pockets in real life, so I'm going to try a few of those!

I've used a Photoshop script, free from http://speedscraps.blogspot.com/p/free-scripts.html, with great success (example: Robbie's Rockin Red - Hearts Scatter); it's called 'Scatter Things'.

I was inspired by something I saw on your pinterest board. I added mine to the commons.

I'm not sure if this is the same as shaker pockets but I like to fill shapes with glitter and flowers, etc. Here's one I was working on

I loaded some shaker flairs to the Commons area, a year ago or so. (In case they may be of interest to you)

These shaker pockets are so cool. I've never heard of a shaker pocket. Lori, I'm now following your Pinterest board. My sister makes and creates all her own cards so I will be sharing your board with her too! And thank you to you all who posted them here for download! I'm definitely using some in my granddaughter's photo book
