Cocoa Bear Shaker

Hi, everybody!  I'm back with another winter holiday card!  This one is a shaker!


This cute little bear with his cocoa mug is Gerda Steiner - Warm Fuzzies Bear and I coloured him with markers.  I stamped a sentiment from SugarPea Designs - Sweet Treats Christmas below the bear.  I layered the bear on a stitched banner die-cut from pink glitter cardstock as well as a strip of the same cardstock, according to the sketch below. The patterned paper is from Crate Paper Bundled Up.  I added lots of colourful sequins inside the shaker and then finished off the card by adding a puffy sticker (cocoa cup) and three red snowflake sequins.

My card design was inspired by Card Sketch 164 at Sketch-N-Scrap, designed by sketch artist and owner Lisa:



Here's another photo to show more of the sparkle:

Great design, the shaker pouch looks great so big and with the sparkling banner in the middle! So creative! The puffy sticker is a lovely addiction and that paper makes me think to a warm sweater! :D
