Peace and Joy Shaker Card (Jane's Doodles DT Spotlight)

Hi everyone! :o)

On Thursday, January 12th, was my turn to be on the spotlight over at Jane's Doodles and I made this Peace and Joy Shaker Card.

To make this card, I used two Jane's Doodles stamp sets: 'Christmas Blessings' and 'Winter Wishes'.

  

I was inspired with cards I made in November 2016, where I used triangle shapes to create Christmas trees. You can find them here.

I cut a white cardstock paper panel slightly smaller than a card base, cut out a triangle window on it and heat embossed in white snowflakes on it.

Then I heat embossed in white a sentiment on an acetate sheet, glued the acetate on the panel and glued 3-D foam sheet on the back of the panel.

I made my own shaker mix from various beads, sequins, droplets... filled the window with the shaker mix and glued the panel on the card base.

Lastly, I glued another white panel inside the card to make it thicker and more stable, because front of the card was quite heavy and card couldn't stand.

Here is a short video...
