I'll be designing for Regina in January 2013!!

I just love how this card turned out!

 

I was inspired by Mary's Snow Globe Shaker Card over at svgcuts.com

I first cut a base card out in white card stock using my Sizzix Eclips cutting machine. I then cut the trees from the eCal library and did a silhouette of each one but selected rhinestones to the light green tree on the far left. For the snow hill I just cut a few swirls and inked with Tim Holtz distressed inks. I glued the trees and hill to the smaller globe insert and glued it to the card base. 

Then I separated the middle part of the face of the globe in eCal to cut only the outer circle. I made six cuts and glued them together to form the top piece and added a white textured paper on top and clear plastic. I did this also on the two white strips on the base of the globe but only used two layers of paper. 

I hope your still following me...lol 

Please email me if you have any questions and I will be happy to answer.

 

After I finished gluing them all together I put them aside and added about a tsp of silver white beads to the tree section. I then glued the outer circle with the plastic over the trees and beads. I finished off the bottom with a red piece of foil paper that I traced and added the white pieces to the base and topped it off with a Christmas bow.

That's my shaker card for today!

Hey, it really Shakes! LOL So Cool!

I stamped a snowman and sentiment for the inside of the card. I bought the snowman

stamp at Michaels dollar bin and the warm wished is from Fiskars 35 ensemble.

 My Newest stamp is from my Favorite....Unity Stamps called "Dutch Mustard Soup" set. You have to see all the other stamps in this set!!
