Glitzy Snowflake Shaker...

Here's a shaker card I made...always loved how Nikki Navy Wife made these, and finally got one to look right. I always had the stuff inside stick to the edges of my foam dimensional tape. This time I took a small brush with some baby powder and dabbed it on those exposed edges of the tape, and no sticking!!!

I cut the top from American Crafts glitter paper. Love that stuff!!! It is so sparkly and does not flake off!


I used on of My Creative Time's dies to cut the window mat. I used two layers of foam tape around the window area after adding acetate to make the window. I made a small pile of my sequins and glitter and carefully put down the window mat, centering as best as possible.

Next, I die cut several of the small snowflake from a Simon Says Stamp die using the same AC glitter paper. I also cut more of Fleurette's snowflake using my Cameo. Then I cut them in half and tucked around the edges, gluing down with tiny dots of glossy accents. 



So pretty! I also stamped my sentiment from a My Creative Time set and embossed with white embossing powder. Again I used a bit of Glossy Accents to glue down. I have some tiny holographic stickers from who knows where, and I scattered a few of those around for added sparkle. 

I hope you like my card. Check out the store at Fleurette Bloom for this snowflake and many other great files....svg files and digital papers!


So, there it is, a very pretty, very sparkly, very fun...shaker card. I hope you check out these products and create one of your own.
