NN Inky Paws Challenge #16 Christmas

As promised, I have one last Holiday Hounds Christmas card to share with you.
I will say that using the same stamp set on 8 different cards all at one time made me feel more creative!! Kept me focused!
If you click on the picture you will head over to Newton's Nook Blog post that features the challenge cards. 
This time, I decided to make my very FIRST shaker card!
I used my Spellbinders to make the shaker window and then added foam tape to the back.
I filled my little shaker window with beads and sequins....to be honest, I didn't want to use too many sequins. I have the fear that so many other crafter's have..."what if I run out and need one in the middle of the night"...so I have more beads in there.

I placed a layer of sparkly icicle at the bottom of the window and attached a sparkly snowflake and gold floral die cut to the top, tying it off with a little bit of red scrapper's floss.


I stamped the sentiment in brick red ink onto a strip of vellum and attached it to the card front.
I was not so sure about this card, but it has grown on me and it was my friend's favorite out of the 8 that I made.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!
Until next time make sure you Stamp S'More!

Too funny about the sequins! I love that you're "Hoarding" them for a crafting emergency! Your shaker turned out so cute! I just LOVE shaker cards! Thanks so much for linking up to our inky paws challenge at Newton's Nook Designs!
