Shaking for Christmas

Hi there, another week over and I just love Friday's although I have a busy day today so not much crafting done.  Tomorrow will be my crafting day.

A new challenge begins at Simply Create Too.  

Our theme for this month is

'Make a Shaker Card'

I have used a background I made sometime ago where I took some heat resistant acetate, covered it with dries clear glue and then sprinkled it with cosmic shimmer pixie powders, then put some tissue paper onto it and leave it to dry.  This technique is one I learnt from John Lockwood and Julia Watts.  
I also sprinkled some gold glitter into it before putting the tissue paper on.

The frame was cut from Sue Wilsons Peg Board die and the poinsettia I die cut from Dawn Bibby.

I finished off with a sentiment from Phill Martin's stamps.

Follow the link HERE to our challenge blog to enter your own shaker card and to see what other ideas our design team have been working on.

Thank you for visiting today.

Take care.
