Hello everyone,
Sharing a Christmas shaker that nearly sent me into a spin of no return, I shook it, and the stuff fell out, I was so cross with myself, started over and it did it again..I didn't realize that the bag I was using for my shaker window had a hole or ten at the other end, I thought it was a sealed bag..anyway, it work out in the end..
Using my arch die ( love this die ), I cut out a window in the card base.
Then glued the bag in place ready to fill it with my shaker bits..
Die cut a Santa picture..
filled my bag up..
and glued it inside..
die cut some snowflakes in music papers..
added a pocket with a tag on the backside..
added a music strip on the inside seam.
a die cut Merry Christmas in the music papers..
I love these cellophane bags with the snowflake print on it.
and there she is..
Thank you so much for stopping by..
See you soon..
Luv CHRISSYxx

The persistent wins, Chrissy! Those bags with the snowprint on are too cute. That arch die is so beautiful, think I want one too. The end result is very beautiful!

This turned out so beautiful Chrissy! I love that Vintage Santa so much and what a wonderful way to make the shaker with your cello bag already to go! Love everything about this!
Hi Chrissy, another gorgeous card full of festive cheer, love the bag with the snowflakes and filled with pretty 'stuff' :)) the image of Santa is just beautiful too. Hope you have a good weekend. xx
That's gorgeous Chrissy a beautiful snowy shaker card- I always think it's a clever idea to use a cellophane bag for the shaker- but maybe not one with holes in...would have loved to have seen your face!
xx
Oh my goodness I give you a lot of credit for not giving up on your shaker, I think I would have probably given up. I love that vintage Snowman with it and pretty snowflakes!
Love it - so festive and fun. Love the shaker - and who among us hasn't made a shaker mistake like that? or two? Thank you for joining us at The Holly & Ivy Christmas Challenge xx Lynda/Loopyloo DT
A lovely shaker with those cute bags Chrissy. Arch shaped die seem to be one of my faves at the moment too.
Woops-worth it in the end though-beautiful shaker card with the snowflakes and Vintage Santa image-love the arch die.

Yes those bags are cute and I wouldn't have noticed a tear on them. That really sucks that your first go around was leaky. But you made a fine redo! xoxo
