Today, I’m sharing a holiday shaker card crafted with Penny Black dies and background stamp.
To begin, I cut the largest snowflake from the 51-066 Crystal Trio set out of a silver glitter paper. With the same die, I cut a snowflake out of a white panel into which I inlaid the glitter snowflake (adhering it on the back with tape). The front panel is stamped with the 40-350 Tree-Lined background stamp in a coordinating ink. I cut a circle out of the front panel. I cut a slightly smaller circle out of a white panel to which I adhered an acetate panel. I put foam around the circular opening and filled the enclosure with a mixture of sequins. The Merry sentiment from the 51-021 Love & Joy set was cut three times for added depth.
To recap the layers from top down – green stamped panel, white panel with circular cutout, acetate, white panel with inlaid snowflake, card base.
I’m playing along this week with Merry Monday #127 – Christmas Bingo. I’ve got sparkle, a die cut and red!
This is gorgeous. I love the font of the merry sentiment and that gorgeous snowflake.
