Can you take one more? When I sat down to play around, I made a couple of shaker cards since I had all the supplies out. Since I didn’t finish this one up in time to make the post, I thought I’d share it today. It’s a departure from my home colors – cream and gold – but I love the contrast of the royal blue and silver. From the batch of new holiday dies, this time around I chose Gilded Ornaments and words from the Naughty or Nice Set. In case you didn’t see my post yesterday where I had another shaker card – it helps to see the inside to know how they are put together – I have some step shots —> HERE (scroll down to the bottom of the post) when I did a guest spot for MFT Stamps.
For this particular card I used Twinklets Diamond Dust as the filler for the inside of the ornaments. I think for this card I prefer it over the glitter I had, it feels heavy and moves around inside the card nicely.
Take a look through your stash for items that have rims and will let you use the inside motif as an inlaid motif or look for things have thin border around. These are the things that make for perfect shaker cards :-)

OOoooohhHH, Becca! How beautiful! This is such a work of art! It sure does look like a lot of work went into making those three shaker windows in the ornaments. How clever of you!! Your creativity is always stunning.
So elegant and gorgeous!
Interesting. I love to see the ‘behind the scenes’ in your cards. Both are awesome. I am loving all the stitched dies. My newest obsession.
Beautiful card!
I always use blue and silver for new year’s. I like the christmas tree shaker you made but I was hoping the link would show what you used to hold the glitter for the bulbs.
LOVE this card!!! TY for sharing!
So beautiful! I look forward to your cards AND your tips
Wow! So sparkly and amazing!
Well I finally know what a shaker card is – sometimes I get so wrapped up in what I’m doing, I forget there’s a world out there that is constantly adding new things! I just love everything you do Becca – you have become a major inspiration in my life and I just want to take this moment to tell you so. Big Hugs

Hello Becca,
Oh, I’ve been used to you not posting for a few days so I missed the 29th and am late for the 30th – note to self “must look every day”!!
Both cards are stunning, and you’ve inspired me to make some shaker cards. Like you, it’s years since I’ve had fun this way so thanks for jogging the old brain into action.
