We hope you are having fun with new Change the Scene challenge! There is still one week left of this 3-week challenge. It will be open until Sunday, September 4th at 11:59PM ET.

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Change the Scene Challenge! For this one I decided to make a cute, interactive card with an apple picking scene. I combined images from Apple-solutely Awesome, with an extra mouse from Berry Special, and a butterfly and trail from Butterfly Kisses. I stamped all the images in Jet Black ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

Then I created a background by blending Distress Oxide Inks onto Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock. I used Salvaged Patina with the Cloudy Stencil for the sky. Then I cut down a second piece with the Grassy Border and blended on Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn. I cut both of these panels down with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables.

For the interactive element, I wanted it to look like one of my mice was popping in and out of the apple bushel. So, I took the track from the Let’s Toast Pull Tab Add-on and cut that out of the sky background, then added the tab behind the mouse and trimmed off any leftover bits that would show. I secured the track in place on the back of the panel with the little hugger piece. I also cut a notch out if the top of the panel and glued a pull tab reinforcer over the top of the pull tab and added a little blue arrow in the center.

I stamped a sentiment on the bottom of the grassy border and popped that up with foam tape to give the mouse room to move freely on it’s track. Then I popped the whole focal panel up with another layer of foam tape onto a Guava card base, making sure to keep the tape away from the track as well.

Finally I added the rest of my images, stamped a butterfly trail in Manatee Ink, stamped on the inside of the card in Chili Pepper ink, and finished with a bit of Stardust Stickles on the butterfly and apples.
