Shakin it Up @ Christmas

I love to create shakers they use all those little sparkles and bits and bobs that we all have around that and this is just a perfect way to use them up. Inside this shaker there are 2 different types of glitter and flock but they really are hard to take a picture of !!!! ... I 've attached this onto a card so it bubbles up in the center but you can still shake it to your hearts content and isn't this baby so cute eating snow ... Just don't eat the YELLOW SNOW ... YUCK!!!

Envelopes....

Envelopes sometimes need that little extra attention and what better then to decorate them too which I love to do I usually just draw something a doodle or something for the front that way the mailmen can enjoy it too and bring a smile to the person getting it. Now you can't get to fancy with an envelope but you can get colorful :)
