Hello Crafty Friends! Today I'm sharing a fun Christmas shaker card featuring the beautiful Christmas Bell Shaker Dies and the Large Merry Shadow Dies. You can never go wrong with a shaker to add the fun factor to a card.
First, I used the new Christmas Bell Shaker Dies to diecut a solid bell out of white cardstock and clear acetate. Then I added in the dies for the windows inside the bell and diecut the bell frame 5 times out of white and once out of gold cardstock. I also diecut two bows, two holly leaves, several pine branches and several berries out of red, green and gold cardstock.
I layered and adhered all of the white bell frames to each other and then onto the solid white bell. I added some Candy Cane Shaker Beads and a few of the gold diecut berries into the shaker bell. The clear acetate bell was adhered to the top to close off the shaker. The gold frame was added to the top of the acetate layer. The two bows were adhered to each other a little off-centered to create a larger bow and then adhered to the top of the bell. I added one of the gold diecut berries to the center of the bow.
I used the Argyle Pierced Plate Die to add texture to a piece of red cardstock and adhered it to a white A2 cardbase (4.25" x 5.5"). I adhered the leaves and the pine branches on top of the red panel before adhering the shaker bell to the top of it.
For the sentiment, I used the Large Merry Shadow Die to diecut the Merry twice out of white and once out of gold cardstock. I layered and adhered the words to each other and then to the red panel. Finally, I stamped the "Christmas" sentiment from the Christmas Bells Stamp set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of red cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used one of the dies from the Sentiment Strips Dies set to diecut it out. I adhered it to the panel with some foam tape.
