I created a shaker card using the Antique Snowglobe Emboss and Cut Folder and Forest Background die.
I die-cut the Antique Snowglobe Emboss and Cut on a 4" x 5.1/4" panel of Distress Watercolor card.
I coloured the bottom section of the Snowglobe using Simon Says Cappucinno and Mocha Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cubes and a Detail Round Blending Brush.
I coloured the rest of the panel with Dew Pawsitively Saturated Ink, added water splatters and dried.
I die-cut Simon Says Stamp Forest Background from Distress Watercolor card, coloured the bottom 3 layers with Mist, Dew and Raindrop Pawsitively Saturated Inks and fixed together with tape on the reverse.
I fixed the die-cut forest sections in place on a 4" x 5.1/4" panel of Distress Watercolor card. I die-cut the shaker aperture from 4 sheets of cardstock using a circle die slightly larger than the aperture on the front panel, fixed in place and added Distress Rock Candy Glitter, Simon Says Starbright Embellishment Mix and snowflakes and silver stars from my stash.
I fixed acetate behind the snowglobe aperture, applied Distress Grit Paste Opaque through Simon Says Detailed Snowflakes Stencil and sprinkled with Distress Rock Candy Chunky Glitter while the paste was still wet.
I poked holes at the top edge of the snowglobe base, threaded with Simon Says Silver Metallic Cord and tied in a bow. I fixed the Reverse Merriest Christmas Sentiment Strip in place popped up on Simon Says 3D Thin Foam Squares.
To finish I added Gina K Black Mini Pearls to the centre of the stars and snowflakes and matted the shaker panel on to an A2 white card blank.
