I made this card just in time for the current Cardvaarks challenge.
The base is 5 1/2" square white, stamped and embossed with a snowflake in silver, and with the edges wiped with dark blue ink.
For the shaker window, I embossed some dark navy card with the Snowflakes ef, wiped it with Versamark and embossed with white EP. I cut it down to a 4" square, and cut out a window from the centre. I stamped the snowflake with silver ink onto heatproof acetate and embossed with silver EP, and stuck it behind the window. I used thick foam tape for the box, and poured in some clear microbeads. You can see them in the detail photo if you look carefully.
For the back of the window I stamped little deer, coloured them and then embossed with the snowflake folder. Trimmed it down and stuck it across the back of the shaker box, and then stuck the shaker onto the base card.

Thanks for the close-up shot, Sabrina. Your shaker card is incredible in detail! I cannot believe you filled it with microbeads ... I'll bet it's even better IRL!
