Merry Everything

Hi Crafters! It’s Valerie here, and my card for today is a non-traditional Christmas shaker card using My Favorite Things & Pretty Pink Posh! 

I couldn’t wait to use the new MFT Peek-a-Boo Wonky Windows die set! And it worked perfectly for today’s shaker card project! I also pulled out their older set: the Jingle All the Way stamp set and coordinating die set.

The fun MFT 6×6 papers at work here are the Dots & Stripes Sorbet and Dots & Stripes Neutral. And I used the MFT Die-namics Cross Stitch Rectangle die set to cut the rectangle pink piece.

I decided to pull the fun colors from the papers into the PPP sequins I used for the shaker (I wish I had added more sequins to the shaker portion, however :/ ): 

• Clear Droplets 6mm
• Clear Droplets 4mm
• Marshmallow 6mm Cupped
• Marshmallow 4mm Cupped
• Onyx 4mm Cupped
• Watermelon 4mm Cupped

The colored images are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto X-Press It Blending Card Paper, and colored with Copics:

• Santa: Skin: E000, E00, E11, R20 / Clothes: R17, R27, R29 & N0, N2 / Beard: W00, W1, W3 / Belt & Boots: C6, C7, C9 / Present: Y13, Y15, & RV04, RV09
• Reinder: Fur: E13, E15, E17 / Antlers: E71, E74, E77 / R46 / Hooves: T6, T8 / Collar: E59 & Y17

I added Zig Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Pen accents to the pink scarf, the pink ribbon, and the reindeer’s gold tags.
