Cozy Christmas Shaker Cards-Stampin'up

Hello

A couple of shaker cards for you today.
The first card is what I call an enclosed shaker.
An aperture is die cut in to  a piece of card, the sentiment from Versatile Christmas stamped and embossed, and the card then embossed. I used the star framelets and gently falling embossing folder. A star frame was cut from glimmer card and attached round the aperture. Acetate was taped to the back of the star, and ribbon wrapped across the panel. The snowman image from White Christmas set was stamped onto another piece of card and foam tape used to form a box around it. Glass glitter was placed in the box and the front panel attached over it.
This whole panel was then attached to the card base, and rhinestones added to finish.

This second card has the embossed, ribbon wrapped panel attached to the card front. The white and glitter stars are the negative die cut shapes from the first card. Cozy Christmas house was stamped and black embossed on to a rectangle of white card which was die cut with acetate. A glitter frame was also die cut. The acetate was taped to the back of the glitter frame and foam tape applied to form the shaker box. Glass glitter was placed in the frame and the stamped image fixed on top. This was then attached to the card front, and a black rhinestone added to the top corner.

I hope you enjoy these cards, they are such fun to make.
Till next time - be happy crafting
