Shake It Up


Good Morning and Happy Tuesday! Today's card is made for the first challenge of 2013 at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges. We want you to Shake It Up...make a Christmas shaker card. I don't make them very often, so this was FUN! I used Bugaboo's Winter Birds - Snowman...isn't it sweet?  Since my move, I haven't been able to find where I put my seed beads ( yes I know it has been 3 months...LOL) so I cut up a string of clear beads for the snow...it worked.

Have a GREAT WEEK!
