...Log Cabin shaker card


Evening, I have a little shaker card this evening, I have not been doing much crafting these two days, been carving pumpkins and, more importantly,  slices of apple pie....  felt the need to just stamp something this evening and this kinda evolved. Seems like shaker cards are all over the place right now.... The Pretty Panel two die was used for the aperture, I love being able to 'frame' the aperture with a contrasting colour.

I used snowflakes from the Flurries set just released and I just stamped them randomly and in colours to match the little scene inside the shaker, the wee log cabin and trees are from, Frosty in the pines, Warm fuzzies and Flurries.

The log cabin scene is stamped on cream card, but to get the lighted windows, I stamped the cabin again onto yellow card and just trimmed out the windows and glued them to the log cabin in the scene. I actually like that they stick out a little bit and the glitter rests on them, I think a little snow round the windows makes it look more authentic...lol, little amuses the innocent!

Hope it tickles!
