The Beauty of Winter at The Paper Shelter

 Hello Crafty Peeps,

It's time for another challenge at The Paper Shelter Blog, and this time we have a Winter Mood Board for you. This is optional, so you can always play Anything Goes if you prefer.

I have used page 22 from the Glamour Gowns Colouring Book for a shaker card in winter blues, with white and silver accents.

There are many gorgeous gowns to choose from and dress up as you please!

I started with the background, blending Distress Inks over the whole card, before adding Lunar Paste through a stencil. I finished off with some puff paint and sparkly spray.

For the shaker, I used a cello bag to cover the whole card, before adding sequins and other filler.

 I cut vinyl for the sentiment, as it's a lot easier than using cardstock for this type of sentiment.

I also added a few snowflakes to the inside of the card.
