SSC227 Blingy Jolly Jingles

Pin It Now! I know it's Halloween, but I'm in a bright Christmas mood anyway!  I should've been Mrs. Claus for Halloween instead of a bank robber :)  

This week's Stamping 411 sketch was so clean and simple, I wanted to do something special. 
Shaker Box!  I've been dying to use one of SU's quick & easy frames from the Holiday Mini.
So simple!  I punched two ornaments, embossed one, and filled the shaker circle with Basic Pearls.

I used a bunch of large basic pearls, scraping the adhesive off with the Piercing Tool.
Then I stuck the medium pearls back to back so they'd roll around. 
Aren't they bright and baubly?
I kept the rest of the card nice and simple, graphic lines.
The Jolly Jingles jumbo stamp wheel looks so great heat embossed in white.
It's really a striking stamp.  Those wheels don't get enough face time, do they?!

Here's the sketch...Hope you'll give it a try!  Visit Stamping 411 to enter your lovely card and see all the great samples!

    Love this card! The pearls look awesome in a shaker. I would never have thought of taking the adhesive off so they could move around!

    Erika, I love this card and I am CASEing it for my sisters birthday card, but I was wondering what you did (if anything) to colour the sides of the shaker foam? I can see mine and don't like the white, but then the white may show up more since I'm using Night of Navy. Also I used the 1" punch for the middle is that right?
    TFS!!

    This comment is in response to Deb...I didn't use anything to hide the white, & it does show a little. I didn't think it mattered much since all the accents are white. You could try coloring the foam with a Stampin Write marker. And you're right, I used the 1" punch! Link your card here in the comments when you're done, I'd love to see it!!! Thanks. Erika
