A Get Well Before ‘n Afters Card with Jessica!

Good morning! Jess here with a card for our current Interactive challenge! I just love interactive cards and couldn’t wait to create this underwater scene with the Magic Picture Changer dies!

To start I stamped the cute sick and healthy whales from Get Well Before ‘n Afters onto Strathmore Bristol cardstock and colored them with Copic markers. Then I masked them with a Post-it note and blended Tumbled Glass, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink onto both backgrounds. Then I die-cut the scenes with the Magic Picture Changer dies and created my Magic Picture Changer scene. I also used the Magic Picture Changer Add-on set to add a black pull tab.

Next I stamped a bunch of images from Fintastic Friends and Mermaid for You and colored them with Copics before die-cutting them with the coordinating dies. I also colored around the die-cuts so they’d match my background.

Then I blended the same three Distress Oxide ink colors onto an A2 panel. I also blended Cracked Pistachio, Evergreen Bough, and Pine Needles Distress Oxide ink onto a second A2 panel and die-cut it with the Bayou Backdrop. I die-cut a banner with the Simply Wavy Banners and then stamped the sentiment from Wavy Sayings.

I adhered the Bayou Backdrop onto my blended background and adhered that to a card base. Then I added my Magic Picture Changer scene onto the background panel with foam mounting tape. I added all the extra fish and mermaid around my scene and adhered the banner on top. Finally I added a few accents with a white gel pen and some sparkly bubbles with glitter drops to finish the card!

And that’s it! You have one more weekend to get crafty with our Interactive Challenge and I can’t wait to see what you’ll create! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fantastic weekend!

Kara’s Amazing Pop-Up Birthday Card!

Our wonderful and talented Guest Designer Kara is back to share another amazing card project for the Spectacular Skies challenge! Her Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up has some hidden interactive elements that make it so extra special!

Kara added some movement using the Let’s Toast Pull-Tab Add-On to the background! The little plane and banner are from the Simply Celebrate Spring set and the tiny little fairy “pilot” is found in the A Little Sparkle set!

She also added another interactive element to flip up the second banner from the clouds! Check out the video tutorial at Kara’s YouTube channel to see how she made this work!

Kara added fun little scenes on the box flaps! Her coloring is so amazing with so much wonderful detail! Be sure to check out the supply list below for all the stamp and die sets she combined to make this super fun card!

The outside of the box is perfectly plain and so cute with Cloudy Hillside Pop-Up Add-On clouds and a simple greeting from our Speech Bubbles die set! All the fun happening on the inside of this card will be such an awesome surprise!
