Snowflake Pop Up Card

Hello! Today I have a card I created for reminder post at two Magnolia challenges. The first one is Magnolia Forever with the theme

Christmas/ Winter

And Marvelous Magnolia challenge with the theme

Anything Goes

For this card, I only used die cuts on the front cover. The poinsettia was made from die cuts from Magnolia Vintage box 4. The snowflake background and sentiment die cuts are from Poppy Stamps. I used some glitters on die cuts to add sparkling touch to the card.

When opening the card, Tilda and snowflakes will pop up. Both Tilda and snowflakes were attached to the pop up part. I made the spiral pop up by following the tutorial here. I stamped the background paper with snowflake stamps from Magnolia Vintage Box 4 and “X-Mas Snowflakes” stamp from A Lovely Christmas 2015 collection.

This cute Tilda is from “Tilda with Sock Puffs” stamp from Aspen Holidays 2016 collection. I used masking stamp technique to make her sitting on “the Christmas Lace Bench” stamp from the same collection. The stamped image was colored with distress ink. I also attached tiny snowflake over her palm using acetate stripe.

The sentiment is from LOTV stamp which I heat embossed with white embossing powder.

I would like to enter this card to these challenges.

Deep Ocean Challenge GDT – Bee Tilda with Kitty

Hi everyone! My previous project, the sakura garden paper bag, won the Spotlight entry at Deep Ocean challenge. Today I’ve got a wonderful opportunity to be the GDT for the new challenge. The theme is

Dots and/or Stripes

I used the dots and stripes pattern papers from my old paper stash. They were from different brands but the colours matched very well. I used the new Magnolia stamps, Bee Tilda and Kitty Kit from the latest Spring Fever collection. The colour combo was so bright and colourful So I think it would be suitable for the birthday card. 

Materials:

• Magnolia “Bee Tilda” stamp from Spring Fever 2016 collection
• Magnolia “Kitty Kit” stamp from Spring Fever 2016 collection
• Lili of the Valley “Greeting Postmarks” clear stamp
• Magnolia DooHickey Club Volume 8 “Pets & Animals”
• Magnolia Vintage Box 2^nd Edition die
• Magnolia DooHickey “Heart Flower Lace” die
• Magnolia DooHickey “Firework” die
• Magnolia DooHickey “Sprawling Ferns” die
• Cheery Lynn Designs “French Pastry Doily” die
• Poppy Stamps “Happy Birthday Background” die
• Ranger “Tinsel Silver” embossing powder
• Embellishments – Paper Flowers, Ribbon, Pearl string, Gems, Twine, and Sequins

The stamped images were coloured with distress ink in pink and grey tone to match with patterned papers. Here is the close up.

I coloured the kitty with the inspiration from my blue Persian cat. He had very long hair but currently he just had his hair cut for the super-hot weather in Thailand.
