Advent with ATDML - Dec 4th - Shaker Card





Hello, lovely scrappers, I hope you are enjoying our Advent Calendar so far.

For my project I used Kaisercraft's Silver Bells collection.

What you will need:
  • White 6 in square card blank
  • Pink Card
  • A piece of acetate
  • Foam pads
  • Beads
  • Silver Bells  - Believe
  • Silver Bells - Joy
  1. Cut out the large square, with 'Merry & Bright' from the Joy paper and carefully cut out the centre circle, also remove the grey circle.
  2. Cut a circle of acetate, larger than the aperture you have made in the large square. 
  3. Glue the acetate to the large square .
  4. From the same paper cut out the Santa with his sack.
  5. Cut a piece of pink card measuring 5 3/4 square and adhere to your card blank.
  6. Cut a piece of Believe measuring 5 1/4 square and add to the top of the pink card.
  7. Lay your square, with the circle cut out onto your card.  you will now be able to see the best placement for your Merry & Bright circle and your Santa. Glue them in place.
  8. Add foam pads to the back of your acetate, all the way around the circle, and around the back of the large square.
  9. Pour a couple of teaspoons of beads onto the centre of your card and adhere the piece of paper with the acetate , making sure that none of the beads can escape.
  10. Finally, if one of the Manufacturer's strips has appropriate works add to your card
Although I used Silver Bells for this project there are many, many Kaisercraft ranges that you can choose from.
