Today I made a Christmas card and it's been a while since I made a shaker card !
The photo is a bit blurry because of the acetate.
The embroidery is made around the oval shape and even on the acetate of the shaker.
The image of the Christmas dressed animals inside the shaker is drawn by Eline Pellinkhof .
I cut the image by hand into several layers.
White beads for the snow are rolling around when you move the card.
For further embellishments I used star sequins with red beads and red and green ribbons.
And for the 4 corners I used the Photo Corners punch from Stampin' Up.
