SSD Christmas Cat Nap Shaker Card

Hi. I'm trying to make a start on my Christmas cards. So I decided to take a non Christmas image and make it Christmasy. I choose a SheepSki Design's Digital Stamp called Cat Nap. I designed a interactive card with a sequin shaker and a jingle bell on it.




The cat has been coloured using coloured ball point biro orange and brown pens. I find this is a super easy way to create depth in the fur using a light flicking action. I made a window shaker but I didn't have any clear film or acetate so I improvised with what I had in my recycling.. I used a cleaned plastic milk bottle. I filled with white and clear sequin and sequin shapes (the sequins represents the falling snow.) I also decorated the background paper with matching sequins. I embellished with a handmade bow and attached a bell to the centre of it.
