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

And Marvelous Magnolia challenge with the theme

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.

Hello crafty friends! Today I would like to share a card I made for Magnolia Forever November challenge. The theme is

I wanted to create something sweet for this challenge. I had ordered a few Magnolia boxes sometimes ago but didn’t have a chance to use them. So I combined them together to make this card. The heart shaped card base is from Magnolia Vintage box 5. I decorated this card with many die cuts. The big tree and apples die cuts are from the latest Doohickey volume 16. The bushes with hearts die cuts are from last year Doohickey volume 9. The fence die cut is from Pop Up box 2.

Animated Unicorn Birthday Card

Hello crafty friends! It’s my turn today to share the card I made for Addicted to Stamp challenge. The theme is
(e.g. Make a scene, or stamp your own patterned paper)

I decided to make a fun birthday card using two different unicorn stamps. One is Uchi’s Design Animation Unicorn clear stamp and another is Magnolia “Unicorn” stamp from I Believe in Unicorns 2017 collection. Initially, I designed the animation unicorn to be a background. However, I think it would draw some attentions and may be too focal. So I decided to stamp my own patterned paper using Hero Arts Basic Grey Diamond Zig Zag Background cling stamp and heat embossed with pastel pink, blue, and purple embossing powder. I decorated the card with minimal embellishments as I think CAS style would be perfect for this card.
Animated Unicorn Birthday Card

I colored the unicorn with distress ink using the same color combo as the background. The sentiment is the stamp from LOTV.
Magnolia Unicorn Stamp

The fun part of this card is to see the animation unicorn moves. At first, I planned to use the colored unicorn to trigger the animation. However, I didn’t work out like I imagined. I decided to leave as it was. At least, the animation grid can be slid and you can see the unicorn animation in the video below.

CAS Hello Friend Card

Hello everyone! Today I have a card created for Magnolia Forever September challenge to share with you. We have just migrated to a new blog. So please add our new blog to your bookmark list. The theme for this month challenge is

I’m a cat lover so one of my favorite Magnolia stamps is “Kitty Kit” stamp from Spring Fever 2016 collection. Normally, I combined this cat with Tilda. But this time, I wanted to use this stamp alone. So I decided to make a CAS card with this stamp and some Doohickey die cuts.
Magnolia Kitty Kit CAS Doohickey Fish Bowl

I use scalloped square die from Doohickey volume 13 to create the card base. The fish bowl and banner die cuts are from Doohickey volume 8, and 10. I used blue and orange color combo as it is one of my favorite color combos. I stamped Marianne Designs Paw Print background to the cardstock to create patterned paper that matched with the cat.

I colored the stamped image with distress ink, using Pumice Stone, Hickory Smoke, and Black Soot on cat’s fur. The sentiment was generated by computer.

Aladdin Tilda & Magic Carpet

Hello everyone! I’m back again with my latest card I made for Marvelous Magnolia reminder post. The theme for this month is very easy which is
I really love Magnolia Aladdin themed stamps from “I Believe in Unicorns” collection. They are my inspirations to create this card. The card base is from Magnolia Vintage Box 2 using purple patterned paper. Then I added mini gold tassels to each corner to make it look like the magic carpet.
Magnolia Aladdin Tilda Arabic Night Action Wobble Card

The Aladdin themed images are from Magnolia “Aladdin Tilda with Lamp” and “Arabic Night” stamps  from I Believe in Unicorns 2017 collection. I colored the image with distress ink. I cut the frame in the middle of the card base with Spellbinders Labels Twenty-Four die so the Arabic castle can be seen as Tilda is riding on the magic carpet.

I also added the lamp image that came with Tilda stamp set. I attached a die cut from Doohickey volume 13 to the tip of the lamp to make it look like smoke that comes out of the lamp. The gold glitter  ornament is the die cut from Doohickey volume 12.

I decorated the card with banner and stars die cuts from Doohickey volume 9, and Marianne Designs Stars Semi Circle. The sentiment is the stamp from Whiff of Joy 1001 Night clear stamp set.

I also added movement mechanism on Tilda. I made a diy action wobble as I had seen from the tutorial here and attached to the back of Tilda to make her shake as she was riding on the carpet. You can see Tilda move in the video below.

PND Big Hair Amara

Hello! Today I have a card created for The Paper Nest Doll blog to share with you. I used the image from May new release called “Big Hair Amara”.

I have created this card which card base is the die cut from Magnolia Pop Up Box 1. The patterned paper is also from Magnolia. I added some layers with paper, lace, and doily and decorated the card with die cuts and paper flowers.

I colored the image with distress ink. The scalloped circle frame around the image is the die cut from Spellbinders Lacey circles.

This little book is the die cut from Doohickey volume 6. Since Amara is sitting with a cat, I guess she is a cat lover. So I made Amara reading about cats by adding the alphabets “CAT” from Die-Versions in front of the book cover.
