Hope you enjoy! Todays weather report from Las Vegas .. Its early early morning right now, and for the first time in a long time the air is crisp and 'almost' chilly. Goodness I just looked and it is 79 degrees, but for us, that is cool! I read that it will be 99 later today. Humor me, okay? It is lovely and 'almost' fall here, so I will show you a couple of my Halloween shaker cards.



I had confetti that I was going to throw away, but now I am using it and want more! Umm, so nice harvest color, ooh, maybe some Christmas colors too. I found the pink flamingo confetti and I have a pink flamingo die, and stamp set from Reverse Confetti. I promise you will see that soon. These shaker cards were made from the  craft video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzIXpSzDrQ8 They are so easy. Here are my first Christmas themed ones from the video. 
Thanks for looking! Mary S

Lets get something posted!! I intended to show you my halloween cards first, but I haven't photographed or edited them. So, lets get started with my early Christmas. All the cards were done with the Memory Box Diamond background and the candles. I used dots of Zip dry glue to adhere the background. 
Some to the candles were cut on white cardstock, a couple with the gold. The colors added are the cardstock, either cut with the die or just cut to fit the candle or leaf. Various spellbinder circles for the frame. Then I did add a decorative circle die from Mariannes dies. Add lots of glitter!!

The last two cards are done with festive embossing folders.
