What's White all over with a Touch of Red and shakes? A Challenge or two!!!

I love making shaker cards and today's card is brought to you by a pair of great challenge prompts. Just Us Girls ~~ Sequins (I rarely use them) and 52 Week Christmas card Throwdown ~~ White with a sprinkling of Red. I've been hoarding sequins for a couple of years I'm never sure how to use them or how many to put on a card, I'm in awe of people that use them for me it seems the only use is a shaker card. I'm behind on my Holiday cards so I need to get busy an make at least two a week or I won't have enough for mailing. Here is my holiday shaker.

I used Vertical Birch Trees Card Panel from Frantic Stamper Inc. I bought it this year at Scrapfest Kitchener. The cardinals are from another birch tree die that has two cardinal dies from Impression Obssession I love both dies but the card panel is perfect for a shaker but very tedious cutting the narrow foam tape in half as the edges are very narrow. White and a few red sequins used to fill the shaker.

Close up of the sequins.

The base and the backing for the shaker is shimmer cardstock, for the birch trees I used a natural white cardstock The sentiment is from Impression Obsession Inc.
