Shake Things Up (CTMH Technique Blog Hop)

It's time to shake things up with Close To My Heart's fun shaker card products!  Hop through this blog hop to get lots of great ideas for shaking up your work.  (If you're already hopping then you've probably arrived from Melissa's blog.  From here, you'll visit Debi's blog next.)

My first project is an ornament (or tag).  I created my base with the You Are Here CTMH/Cricut cartridge (it's the compass base) cut at 3.5" from Peacock card stock. I stamped the Christmas Blessings sentiment and stars with Charcoal ink and then sprinkled silver embossing powder on top.  I heat set the powder to get the pretty silver.

I stamped the shepherds and sheep with Charcoal ink onto the lighter side of Peacock card stock and then fussy cut it out.  I also cut another scalloped circle at 3.25" to cover the foam from the shaker window.

A little twine finished off this ornament!
For my layout, I used the Holiday Sparkle shaker card kit and Oh What Fun collection to create a layout.

Thanks for shaking it up with me!  Now go see what DEBI has created!
