Today we have a beautiful photo inspiration challenge at
Addicted to Stamps and More!
I decided to use the colors and tree as my inspiration. I also used a transparency to make a shaker card for the challenge at
The Friday Mashup! challenge: We need a window!
I stamped the background trees in Soft Suede and stamped the "Christmas Blessings" sentiment in Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green over the top. The "snow" is gold glitter. I actually got way too much and had to take my card apart and empty out some of it. Now my room is a glittery mess! :) I have been having fun with these shaker cards but I need to remember that I don't need a whole spoonful to make it look good! lol
