Happy Monday crafty Friends.
I have a super cute interactive Birthday card to share with you today featuring the new Fortune Cookie collection from Honey Bee Stamps.
CARD DETAILS
To start, I die cut all the pieces for the Fortune Cookies using the FORTUNATE COOKIE SLIDER dies and scrap pieces of different shades of brown cardstock. I then pieced them together.
The next thing I did was choose the piece of cardstock for the background. I really liked this pink xoxo pattern that comes from the LOVE LETTER PAPER PAD. The piece was then trimmed to an A2 size panel.
Rather than using the slider die, I chose to create a small slit in the center of the paper for my fortune message to slip into. To do this I stamped the "So Lucky to know you" fortune on one of the banners from the FORTUNATE TO HAVE YOU set by creating a partial die cut of the banner so that I could extend the length of it. I then hand cut the remainder of the banner, slid the banner through the slit, and then glued one end onto one-half of the fortune cookie. On the backside of the pattern paper, I added a little scrap piece of paper to the end of the banner so that when pulled out the banner wouldn't slide out completely. I then glued the panel to the card base avoiding any glue around the area the banner would be sliding through. I did not use foam tape as it moved ok without the added space.
I then just covered up the slit area with the other half of the Fortune Cookie.
The other two fortune cookies also have an interactive banner that slides out as well. On the bottom left one, the fortune comes out completely but slides back into place easily and the bottom right one has the built-in stopper banner. They are all fun to pull and play with.
For the sentiment, I used the BEE BOLD ALPHABET CUTS to spell out PICK and then added the "a fortune" form the FORTUNATE TO HAVE YOU that was stamped on black cardstock and heat embossed in white and then die cut using the coordinating FORTUNATE TO HAVE YOU DIES. To each letter, I then added a light layer of glue to the top half and dipped it in glitter.
To finish off the inside of this birthday card, I stamped out the birthday fortune from the FORTUNATE TO HAVE YOU set and added a little die-cut heart from the FORTUNATE TO HAVE YOU DIES set.
Here is a fun little clip of the card in action.
I hope you find a happy fortune today and hope this Birthday Fortune Cookies Card inspired you. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
