  3. LOVE IT! The 'sparkle' is so cute! I'm putting in my request for a shaker card how-to tutorial at our 2016 Babes adventure. OK?

  4. Kim, you are a master at shaker cards. I still have only made about 3 of them and it is such a struggle just to remember what to do. This is so festive. Love it.

  9. Kim, I always love the non-traditional colors I see in Blogland, but must confess, my favorites are always the reds & greens. This beautiful one truly does "Sparkle" with the bright glows of each pop of color and I'm loving the circle motif of this stitched shaker. Brilliant idea to mat the stitched frame with the scallop. Lovely design. TFS & Happy wkend. Hugs

  10. This is festive and beautiful. I love the idea of a shaker card for Christmas, and it is the perfect make ahead card, as one would never have time to mass produce a beauty like this. So much sparkle and glitter! Love how you've got part of your sentiment stamped inside the shaker window.
