Here in no. IL, they are forecasting four more days of snow this week. I was "thinking" snow when I looked up today's CAS and TLC challenges. My snowy thoughts led me to Jen's (MissBoo) Let it Snow card, which in turn inspired my TLC Shaker card. This is my first attempt at a Shaker card. Using my IO supplies it was fun and not-too-hard. And ... I like the way it turned out!

That's one of the big IO cover-a-cards you've used for the background snow, isn't it!! How clever, I'd never have thought of that. I too like the idea of the big flakes in the shaker - and they should have the added merit of not becoming too static, which can certainly happen with beads. Well done on your first shaker, Gabby - it's fab!
