Jessica’s Edward Scissorhands Scalloped Box Card!

- Nancy Krueger 12 Comments

Good morning! Jess here with a card for our current Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song challenge! It’s been so fun figuring out how I can adapt Lawn Fawn sets to fit some of my favorite movies! Today I’ve created a box card pop-up featuring one of my all-time favorites: Edward Scissorhands!!

To start I stamped the mermaid and merman from Mermaid For You, the houses from Happy Village, and lots of scissors from Holiday Helpers with Versafine and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. I colored them with Copic markers, added a few Edward Scissorhands accents to the merman, and die-cut them with the coordinating dies.

Next I stamped the giraffe from Critters on the Savanna, the dino from Critters from the Past, the seal from Sealed With a Kiss, and Nessie from Lovable Legends with Celery Stick ink and colored them with Copic markers to recreate the topiaries that Edward creates in the movie. Once I was done I die-cut them with the coordinating dies and added a little YG11 Copic to the edges of the dies to keep them from being too clean cut.

Next I die-cut the Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up with the Spring Fling paper pack and the inner mats of the box card with the Spiffy Speckles paper pack in green and blue. I also used the Simple Stitched Hillside dies to create grassy hills for each layer. I stamped the sentiment from Coaster Critters onto one of the mats with Versafine and heat-embossed it
with clear embossing powder. Then I adhered the box together. I added some of the topiaries to the side panels and tucked the rest around my houses. Finally I added Edward and Kim to complete the scene!

And that’s my card! You have until Sunday, March 17th at 11:59PM ET to get crafty with your Inspired by a Book, Movie, and Song creations and I can’t wait to see what you create! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend!
