Let the Light of the season Shine...


Hi there! I hope you are having a great week! I can't believe tomorrow is Thanksgiving ~ yikes! So much to do ~ so little time. No travel plans for us ~ how about you? I've been having so much fun playing with a couple of the PTI shaker dies.
I filled each shaker with some snow like glitter and silver sequins:
I pulled out some really old pre glittered paper to use for the sentiments and ornament extras. I love that the glitter doesn't end up everywhere!
I also pulled out an embossing folder to add design and dimension to the backgrounds:
For the first color inspiration, I joined along with the Fusion challenge:

 and for the second card color inspiration, I joined along with the Merry Monday challenge:
Many thanks for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great day and Happy Thanksgiving to all whom celebrate!
Be Sweet ;)

  3. These are absolutely gorgeous, Mona!! I love your shakers!! The glitter paper is so beautiful!! I have a slight problem with glitter in that I seem to unintentionally scatter it all over the house after a project!! The paper is so much better!! Love the sentiment dies, too!! I hope you and your family have a very happy Thanksgiving :)

Our Michael's aren't carrying them anymore do you have a place you order these online perchance? I had someone ask me where I bought mine but couldn't help her because they were out at Michaels.
