Make it Monday #50

Hello and Happy New Year!  Well, here on the blog anyway!

My family and I enjoyed the holidays this year, very relaxed and just plain wonderful!  We are so blessed.  I just came back from a special trip that I will be sharing details of soon!

My trip revitalized my mojo, and I am SO THANKFUL!! :)


I decided to participate in this week's Make it Monday challenge over at Papertrey Ink.  This week's challenge was to incorporate a shaker box on your card.  It's been a while, but I love making these fun cards.

The background was made with Fancy Flourishes, and Winter Penguin on Hawaiian Shores cardstock using Fresh Snow ink.  The shaker box uses Limitless Layers 1.75" circle dies, as well as the Delightful Doilies dies, and my favorite little penguin.

Lastly, the sentiment (from Hello, Friend) was added using the Skater Dude die, which I trimmed off the end that went off of the Hawaiian shores layer.

Thanks for stopping by!!

What a darling card! I love the die cuts you used as well as the blinged snowflakes and flourishes. And the shaker filler is so cute and matches the rest of the card!

Very cute! I love the penguin in the background. He looks like he is in a snow globe.

How precious! The little penguin looks right at home among the snowflakes and sparkles! The wintery card front is just beautiful. Great job!

What a darling card. Love all the different elements. The snowflakes stamped on the Hawaiian Shores cardstock is perfect for this card.
