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.
I'm linking up my card at:
Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards - B ... for Blue

Super shaker cards, Marianne. Great idea to use the Antique Linen distress ink to colour the background. Thank you for joining in the Allsorts Challenge this week using the Magic of the Season option.
