CHRISTMAS IN JULY BLOG HOP

If you hopping along with us you arrived here from Jaimie's blog at http://glitterstampsandpaperohmy.com/

Hope you're staying cool!! 

I don't know what the weather is like in you neck of the woods, but in Western New York the heat and humidity has been horrible.  92 in the shade on Thursday ~ I'll take a snow storm over this kind of  heat anyday.  Maybe it's time to move further NORTH!!

BUT...as I'm typing this, I'm in Pensacola, FL visiting my in-laws  We got in very late Thursday night and with the time change, I'm out of wack......more coffee please.

For my project, I made a snow-filled shaker card.  These are really easy to make (just google shaker card videos - there's lots of tuts on how they're done) and I love the way the large Martha Stewart glitter looks inside.  Speaking of MS, I use her snowflake punches all the time for Christmas/Winter projects as I did on this card.





So if you've never made a shaker card go ahead and give it a try.  I try to learn/make something new every single day.

Leave a comment (become a follow if you'd like but it's not required) and make sure you leave your e-mail addess for a chance to win a small token of my appreciation for taking the time to let me know what you think of my card.  This will close at 12:00 midnight EST on Saturday, July 30, 2011 and random.org will pick a winner on Sunday, July 31st.

Thanks for stopping by and hopping along with us ~ and a big THANK YOU to Nicolette Simpson at http://www.beyondscrapin.blogspot.com/ for coordinating this hop.

 
Now head on over to the last stop ~ Bette's blog www.believedreamcreate.blogspot.com and I'm getting ready to hit the beach!!

    This is one of the cutest shaker cards I think I have seen. I'm with you on MS products. I have rarely bought anything from her line that I don't rave about. Thanks for the inspiration... I'm ready to make my first shaker card after seeing yours.
