Kia ora Koutou

Eek it s only 4 weeks to Christmas Day!! Today I have gone outside my comfort zone with this lovely shaker card made using the Amazing Paper Grace Silent might Make a Scene Dies. My inspiration for this card comes from a video I saw on Youtube. The creator used masked a lovely embossing folder to create a snow hill scene and used pink, green and ink colours for her card. I have used a purple, blue and green colour combination for a non-traditional card that is a lot of fun.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

For my card I made a top folding 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ card base out of white cardstock.

I cut a piece of white card 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and blended the sky at the top with Shaded Lilac ink. The various size hills out die cut out of white cardstock using the two hill dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Silent might Make a Scene Dies. and were shaded with Tumbled Glass ink.

I used a snow stencil and Allene’s True Snow on the background and added glitter to the snow.

The houses were die cut out of lilac cardstock and shaded with Shaded Lilac ink. The trees are from both the Amazing Paper Grace Silent might Make a Scene Dies and the Amazing Paper Grace November Die of the Month 2018 Christmas Village Dies and were cut out of green cardstock and shaded with Mowed Lawn ink.

I used some lighter weight acetate to create th shaker element and added a mix of clear, iridescent, pink and teal sequins with some small silver stars to create the shaker element.

To complete the card I have added a silver Santa and his reindeer to the top of the card and the sentiment from a dark blue card lined with silver card.

Finally, I added some snow to the top of the acetate with Simply White Nuvo Crystal Drops ansd sprinkled them with glitter.
