MCT 5 days of Christmas, Day 2

Are you stoked for the rest of the 5 Days projects? I'm having a blast, myself! Here's a fun card for a special person on your holiday list. I love the squatty jar die by My Creative Time, and used it as the window for my shaker card.

For filler, the super cute little jingle bell die that comes with the ornaments seemed to be the perfect fit. I cut them from shiny silver cardstock and added tiny bows to each one using the die from the Party banner die. Twine wrapped around the jar lid gives it a rustic look, and the holly and pinecone add a festive touch. The adorable little tag and sentiment are also by MCT.....

...as well as the inside message and jingle bell stamp. So cute!

I love how pretty the bells look in this silver foil paper (thank you, Miss Kim, for this awesome RAK!). And thanks for coming by to see my project today, crafty bloggers. I hope you'll be back tomorrow cuz I got more craftyness up my sleeve! ♥

    Oh WOW I love your card so love it. You really are so clever and creative here.
    My goodness never thought of using the jar to create a shaker card and then the bells as the shakers how clever so clever. I love how you used all of Miss Emma's goodies you really outdid yourself. Thanks for so many awesome ideas.
