JDS-Free Merry Christmas and Candy Cane

 It's mid month at the monthly challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps.

 


 I thought this free Merry Christmas would be perfect for a
shaker card.  I added the Holly from Mrs. Teddy Bear.  I cut 5 layers 
of my  frame versus using foam tape-I think this gives a nicer
 look even  though it is more time consuming.  Sequins 
from my stash.

    What a pretty Christmas shaker card! Thanks for the tip about the layering - I may have to try that next time instead of the foam tape.

    I've actually never thought of using several die cuts instead of foam tape for a shaker design. I do see some advantages, like avoiding that the shaker elements get stuck to the foam tape's edge. It's a beautiful design with a traditional feel.

    Love the style of your shaker card and clever to use layers of die cuts instead of foam pads. Thanks for a very inspirational project for the Jan's Digi Stamps Challenge.

    Elegant, traditional look but the shaker element makes it fun too!

    I thought for sure I commented on this one but guess not. Love the shaker card and maybe I need to try layering images of the frames - vs. foam tape. Shaker cards are my least favorite to make so may try this.
