Christmas Cardinal Scene Pop-Up Frame Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello, my friends, and happy Monday. To all my American friends, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. I am thankful for YOU! 

Today I have a special card inspired by the amazing Jennifer McGuire. She shared this Pop-Up Frame technique a few months ago and I thought it was brilliant and had to give it a try with the gorgeous Make It Merry Release from Honey Bee Stamps.

CARD RECIPE

• To begin I die-cut all the pieces for the Layering Bells Dies, Lovely Layers Winter Birds and the Lovely Layers Winter Greenery and pieced them together.
• Next, I created the frame for the top of the Pop-Up using the Layering Vintage Labels A2 Frame Dies.
• I then glued the scene together onto the frame.
• Embellish using a white gel pen and add Prisma glitter to the foliage for your snow.

• To create the pop-up, I cut 2 pieces of paper that measured 5.5x1 inches and scored them at every 1/4 inch. Then accordion fold each piece and glue them to the sides of the back of the frame. These will create the springs for the pop-up card.
• For the background, I used the Kaleidoscope 3D Embossing Folder and then added some splatters using the Bee Shimmery Liquid. 

• Glue the springs onto the background, and once dry add the background to a card base.
• Stamp the greeting from the Home for the Holidays set in white ink and heat set it.
• Pop it onto the card front.

• To embellish the card further, I added True Pearl Stickers and Make it Merry Gems.
• To the cardinal's beak, bell, and berries I added glossy accents.

The cool thing about these pop-ups is that they do press down nicely and can be mailed. This one is a bit bulky so I am sure it will require extra postage. 

I hope you were inspired by my Christmas Cardinal Scene Pop-Up Frame Card. Thank you to my uber-talented friend Jennifer McGuire for this inspiration. I am sure I will be making more of these pop-ups in the future!

Thanks for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Fairy Christmas Slider Cards for Ink On 3

Hello Everyone.

Now that Halloween has come and gone and there are inches of snow outside it's time to switch gears and think of Christmas 😀 Can't believe how this year has flown by!!!

So today I'm sharing my first two Christmas Cards of the year! These cards feature Ink On 3's Fairy Christmas set and part of the latest release! As soon as I saw the Fairy Stamp I knew I had to make a card where it looked like she was flying in the air. So literally that is what I did... she does fly (well kind of, on a slider😉) I just can't help making interactive cards!

Here is a look at the first card and how the fairy looks at the bottom and the top position of the card. I wanted it to look like she was adding a star to the top of the tree.

and here is a closer look at this beautiful Blue Fairy!
(Yes, I also challenged myself to use non traditional Christmas colors and I'm really happy with the results) Isn't she beautiful!?!

To finish off the inside of the card, I simply stamped the Merry Christmas stamp from the same set. I'm really loving that font too!

And, here is my second card featuring the Pink Poinsettia Fairy! 

The Fairies were both colored using Spectrum Noir markers and finished with some sparkle using Wink of Stella. The backgrounds including the trees were done using Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors.

Make sure you watch my YT process video cause you won't believe how those trees were made! Also, see the links below this post for a complete list of supplies used.

Here is a closer look at all the detail... check out the fussy cutting I did around the fairy 😲 Not hard to do with the right tools!

For those that love watching my process videos, this is for you!
