Joy Christmas in July Card.

Christmas Greetings!   That's right! it is never too early to start creating Christmas Cards!  Well maybe December 26th is a little early, but then again why not start when you are in the spirit!   This card feature the BRAND NEW JOY Shaker from Clear Scraps.   Be sure to hop on over to their store to check out all the new goodies! 

To create my card background, I applied distress inks over the Clear Scraps 6" Quarterfoil Stencil.   (Hints you can use painter's tape to hold your stencil in place while inking!

 Just look at that gorgeous background!

 Mat background on to gold glitter paper and add to card base. Punch circle to fit inside of shaker and stamp your greeting.

 To decorate my shaker, I covered the shaker with embossing ink and then added embossing powders.

 Add stamped greeting and assemble shaker.

 Add your finished shaker to your background to finish card!
