Today I'm sharing a shaker card using some new items from the release - and I love the color combo in warm pink tones!

I started off by die cutting The Nativity die from a panel of white cardstock to create a window - and saved the detailed die cut as well. I also cut it from a small piece of Honey Gold cardstock. I layered together the two detail pieces to make them a little more stable and sturdy - as well as dimensional. I created my shaker window, and filled it with some of the stunning new Mulled Wine embellishment mix, then for a soft background, I used a piece of pink vellum from Studio Light - you could also ink blend, but I love the softness of vellum as well! I adhered the detail layer inside the window, adhering with tiny dots of liquid glue. The sentiment is from the Peacebird set, stamped in Nocturne ink, then heat embossed with clear embossing powder for a bold image with a bit of shine. The finishing touch was a tiny bow made from Lawn Fawn white twine! Here is a closer look at this finished card:
