We have a new challenge at the Day of the Month Card Club! This month we are celebrating
Beautiful Day
Beauty surrounds us. It is in music, pictures, flowers, people, and pretty much everything else. It is in the smallest and most mundane things we walk past on the street, and in Earth's most magnificent landforms. Today all things of beauty are celebrated. It is unclear who created the day or when they did so, but by doing it they truly did something beautiful.
I love flowers, but curiously they don't show up on my cards very often!
I took the opportunity and made a little bouquet in the form of a pop-up card.
I created the background using a circle stencil and a dot stencil, then speckled it with gold liquid ink. Stamped the flowers, fussy cut them and adhered them with foam tape. Added the sentiment.
The inside of the card is composed of die cut flowers and leaves (colored with alcohol markers), and a vase made from patterned paper. The mechanism consists of a paper tab attached to the vase that pulls the vase inward so that it curves when the card is opened. (see video)
When you open the card a vase with flowers appears....
...and in this video I show you how to make this kind of card!
Have a lovely Happy Beautiful Day!

RépondreSupprimerEine wunderschöne Karte hast du da gebastelt, und gleich zwei tolle Blumenmotive darin versteckt. Deine Variation der pop-up Technik habe ich noch nie gesehen, sie sieht aber auf jeden Fall sehr spannend aus und sieht auch ganz wunderbar aus. Danke fürs Mitmachen bei der Alphabet challenge.
