holiday shaker cards with essentials by ellen & mft

Are you looking for some Christmas card motivation and inspiration? Hopefully I can help a teeny tiny bit with some holiday shaker cards I created using Essentials by Ellen and My Favorite Things stamps, dies, stencils and more!
I am deep in my appreciation of October...scary movies, Halloween candy, cinnamon tea & fuzzy socks...BUT I am in holiday creating mode!
I have to admit that I have a hard time making many multiples of one card, even for Christmas, so these cards were a great compromise! The base was easy to duplicate but I can make unique little shaker "polaroids". 

You can see the process in this quick video...





You can check out what my friends have been creating by just clicking their pics...

Super cute cards! I love the blend of mass production with the different shakers. I also love these little polaroids as mini shakers.

These are so cute! I really need to start experimenting with kraft cardstock more. My first instinct is always to go to white, but I love how your white elements stand out even more in these designs!

These are adorable! Such a great idea, too. I have a similar die and never use it. Definitely will be CASEing these soon. Thanks for the inspiration.
