Merry Christmas At Tilda's Town

Hello everyone, the weekend is almost upon us and it's time for another challenge at Tilda's Town, this week our theme is Merry Christmas.


I decided to make my first ever shaker card, it was fun to do I just wished I'd chosen a smaller image as the frame took some doctoring. I've coloured Snowy Tilda in with my distress markers. The papers are by Maja Design, this is last years collection, I can't wait to get my mits on this years.


I've distressed the edges and machine sewn them with top stitch thread. The roses are from WOC, the chrysanths are from here, the berries were a gift of the lovely Mary and are available here. I've covered the flowers in stickles.


To hide the foam pads I've wrapped natural twine around the shaker just to tidy it up a bit, and I've kept the natural theme going buy wrapping it round the card and by adding a snowflake charm from my stash, I've also added jute fabric behind the image.


I've ran the acetate through a snowfall embossing folder just to add to the snow scene.

I'm entering this card into the following challenges;
'Shaker Card' at MDUC
'Use Kraft' Dutch Magnolia Chickies
'Anything Goes' Deep Ocean Challenges.
'Anything Goes' at Fashionista Challenges.

Please have a look over at Tilda's Town where there is some amazing inspiration from my teammates.

Hugs,
