Hi Friends!

I’ve just come back from my first visit ever to New York City.  It was an incredible experience and I saw the biggest Christmas tree in my life!!  I can’t believe how quickly the month is going!  Only a few more holiday cards from me so I wanted to make another holiday card using Caroling Critters from Pretty Pink Posh.

I decided to do a shaker card today using the Window Frames dies.  I cut a blank white panel and ink blended some blues out side and in, giving more contrast and color to the shaker portion of the shaker (Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, and Blueprint Sketch).   Then for some interest, I splattered some water and white ink.  To create the shaker and I added acetate to the outer panel and adhered foam tape.  I added Sparkling Clear Confetti sequins and Iridescent Circle Confetti to the center panel after centering it and adhering it on a card base.  

For the images, I stamped and colored the images using Copic markers.  Colors used:  BV02, B63, V99, BG13, BG49, R24, R39, C0, C2, Y26, YR27, E30, E31, E41, E43, W0, W3, R20, B12, B0000, YR14.  After coloring, I fussy cut the image and all the little stamped music notes.  

For the bottom of the card, I used the Scallop Border die to cut out a scallop border and stamped a sentiment from the Holiday Greetings stamp set.  I then began to arrange the large image of the critters and music notes on the card and adhered them down.  I felt the card was missing a little something so I used a silver metallic ink to stamp snowflakes on the card also.  I hope you enjoyed this project!  See you back here again very soon!

XOXO,
