Blue Christmas shaker card

Hello everyone. Here's my second set of cards for Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards link-up.

Just like the previous cards, today's design was inspired by a card that Stephanie Severin created last year. I did not have time to finish and post my card for the recent CASE prompt at Jingle Belles, but here it is.

My inspiration was this monochromatic card by Stephanie.

The patterned paper I used was from the same paper pack as the PP on my previous card (Lisa Horton Scandi Christmas) that came with a UK crafting magazine (Papercraft Essentials 204). The background was stark white, so I antiqued it using Antique linen distress ink. Stephanie had sprayed her panel with clear sparkle spray, which inspired me to turn my cards into shaker cards with glitter snow and some sequins. I coloured my frame after die-cutting using 2 rectangle nesting dies (Creative Craft). The sentiment strip came from my UFO box.

Hello everyone. In Australia, the month of November has already begun, which means that Beccy's month of holiday cards linkup has started. It's always a great way to boost my Christmas card making.

This card was inspired by a recent challenge at Jingle Belles, where we were invited to CASE a card made by either Stephanie or Lauren. I was inspired by the card below that Stephanie created in 2023.

I pretty much copied her design, but changed the colour scheme, and opted for a horizontally striped pattern insteadnof the diagonal stripes. I also decided to stamp my sentiment on the middle panel and added gold peel-off stickers to add definition to my middle panel.

Christmas piglet

I have one more card to share with you today. I found these strips of patterned paper (Studio Light) in the package with the papers and tags. I had cut them previously for a particular layout but couldn't remember what that layout was, so I decided to layer them and create a new design. I fussy-cut the jar with the pigles and popped it up using a scrap of cardstock behind it. I decided to use up a bunch of left-over stamped and die-cut sentiments (SSS) to finish off my card.
