I tried some new (to me) card types this month. The design team have been sponsored with some lovely digis from Fred She Said this month and I choose two cute images of Emma.

First a made a Shaker Card using Emma the Snow Angel. I just knew I had to try and make a Shaker Card when I saw this image. Lovely...
