 I used House Mouse 'Gifts To Tie' Cling Stamp and made a shaker card and tag :-)


As you know I love shakers and when my Christmas pressie to myself, from Simon Says Stamp, arrived yesterday with this gorgeous stitched die set in it I knew I had to make a shaker, these frames are perfect ! :-)
I used a Snowfall Stencil and Embossing paste to make the background and repeated it on the image after colouring. If you squint your eyes a bit you might be able to see them :-)

I invariably use Diamond Dust in shakers, it is a bit like sugar and has a heavy weight, which is perfect for creating a shaker sound. I also threw in a few small sequins too for extra sparkle.


and a little tag, 

isn't this image perfect for a tag !! well I think so :-) The image itself isn't Christmas specific and can be used for almost any occasion ! :-)

Thanks for looking :-)
