Brightly gleaming shaker card

Following on from last week's Birthday Sip Sip Hooray shaker card, I've also made a Christmas shaker card too.

This card features the Brightly Gleaming suite along with the Stitched Stars dies.

I used some retired sequins along with Ice Stampin' Glitter to fill the shaker part of the ornament. To create the 3D smaller ornament, I punched out 3 of the gleaming ornaments, folded them in half and glued them back to back to create the dimension - you can see an example of this type of technique on page 49 of the Holiday Catalogue (3D apple).  It's such an easy technique and so effective. A copper foil stars banner from the Stitched Stars die set completes the card.

Here's a close-up of the shaker & 3D ornaments.
