Here is my card for the challenge inspiration. I used Rainbow Christmas Paper and Stitched ChristmasTree Frame Dies.
I started by diecutting a piece of Rainbow Christmas Paper and Simon Copper Glitter Paper using Stitched ChristmasTree Frame Dies.
Next, I adhered a piece of Acetate film behind the negative cut and then glitter frame on the anterior of Acetate window using a Glue .
I used a piece of yellow gingham paper as a shaker background.
For shaker elements, I put Clear Sparkling Sequins Mix, 3mm Sparkling Clear Sequins, Metallic Gold Sequins , Clear Sparkling Seed Beads, Shimmer Gold Seed Beads, Dafodil Seed Beads, and Marigold Jewels. I also added Raspberry Sequins to give the card a little red point.
After I assembled my shaker, I added BELIEVE diecut using Red Glitter Paper and Vellum Paper. I had planned to use Gold Glitter Paper for this, but I found that Red Paper would look more balanced because the shaker had already red sequins in it.
I embellished the card with Raspberry Jewels and then finished off the card. I used a light brown card stock as a card base .
So now it’s YOUR turn.

Oh Marge, you nailed it with the elegance and the beauty a Christmas card really demands. I can never think like that. I over think my projects and I love how you balanced all the elements on your card and the red and gold glitter combination is perfect! Thank you for such a lovely inspiration. Have a beautiful day, dear girl. xx Ankita

What a lovely shaker card!! I love the gold and red glitter paper. That Believe die is one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteEvery detail is fantastic on this card - right down to the elements you used for the shakers! I love the red sentiment panel on vellum which perfectly picks up the red bits in the shaker - it's a beautiful card and so creative!
