Pop Up Card

  Hi there.

Just for a change I put my 'card maker's' hat on in the weekend and had a go at this pop up card. Its rather fun, as you pull the ribbon attached to the top of the card the center pops up to reveal the message underneath.

           

If any of you would like to give this ago just leave a note in the 'comments' and I would be happy to email the instructions to you.

Thats all from me tonight- short and sweet!! -bye for now, from Sonya.

House obsession

OK so I have a bit of an obsession at the moment - 'houses', cute funky houses in all shapes and sizes.

Here's some things I've made with houses in them.

House cards - using Hero Arts stamps sold at Scrapbook Studio

House canvases - using fabric from Scrapbook Studio and some from my stash

House LO

Thanks for looking,

Hero Arts Acetate Cards

After seeing the girls gorgeous acetate cards I decided not to miss out! This is the first time I have worked with these cards, brought a pack ages ago but never got around to it. Saw Lianne use this cute little Hero Arts Doorway stamp in the weekend and was inspired to have a go.

This pic isn't a good example, couldn't find a charged camera!....lol, anyway scanned version will have to do. The house is sitting on the acetate and so are the words. The sky and grass paper which is also embossed through the cuttlebug are sitting on the white card underneath. I used a stunning new product called Radiant Rain Shimmering Mist to colour ordinary white cardstock for the backround of the house and the windows. I stamped the doorway and drew and made up the rest of the house, drew and cut out all the windows and roof. Coloured the roof with a red Tombo pen.

Sometimes those old papers in your stash can come in handy, dug them out for the grass and sky. For adhesive I used Xyron sticker maker to attach the house and wording to the acetate. My only challenge was sticking the acetate to the inside card. So what did I do you ask?? 1am in the morning I ran downstairs to the sewing machine and stitched it together down the center of the spine, was really pleased with the results and would definitely be what I would do again in the future. Enjoy!
