Christmas Shaker



Penny Black Wonder Collection, Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangles, Stitched Hillside Borders & Stitched Snowflakes, Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow

My first shaker card with lots of metallic sequins, hearts, snowflakes, gold glitter, distress glitter, beads and vellum snowflakes! The background is a mix of distress inks spritzed with iridescent gold glimmer mist. The Penny Black Christmas tree and sentiment is embossed with liquid platinum and the card front is embossed with pearlescent embossing paste using Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow stencil.

All shook up! A closer look at all the bits and my snow drifts.
