Shaker Christmas

Welcome to another What If Wednesday? from The House That Stamps Built.  This week we have Winter Wonderland as the theme for you.  So many options with that one.  Here is my card for your inspiration:
 I created a fun little shaker card to add to the wintery feel.  I was even able to use up some scraps from my "bits and pieces" stash: the two die cut snowflakes and several of the sequins.  I cut several more to match.  And the papers are part of a pack that I am trying to use up completely.  I'm getting pretty close. : )  Here is a view of the shaker in action:
Come on and play along, I can't wait to see what kinds of winter wonderlands you come up with!
