Christmas Shaker Card

TIME OUT IS ALSO HAVING A DT CALL! 
Please click HERE for details.

Our Guest Designer is Jen Elliot of Live.Craft.Repeat. Jen is a very talented crafter, and a frequent participant of Time Out. Do treat yourself to a stroll through her blog for some wonderful inspiration!

For my card, I dug very deeply into the depths of my stash and dug out the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero October 2016 Kit. I've seen some snow globes out there lately that really inspired me, so I decided to make one. I always feel like I have to fiddle too much with shakers and all the bits find their way to the desk, floor, my hair... but I was bound and determined to get this one right. Most of what I used was from the kit, except the little bow die cut on the lower right, and the tiny star background which was stamped with VersaMark using a HeroArts Cling background stamp.

Gather your Winter/Holiday supplies and head over to the Time Out Challenge Blog for some awesome inspiration from our Guest Designer Jen and the Design team. Come play with us!!!

I'm a shaker lover and as a child I would have stared at this and shook it all the time...not that I wouldn't still do that! Great idea!!!
