I've always had a problem with K-I-S-S...keeping it simple is sooo not me, but I am trying. Less is more!
I recently purchased a book called "Interactive Cards" and I just love it! After a lot of humming and hawing, I finally made my first interactive Christmas Card.
This card was handmade without the use of my Silhouette or Big Shot. I was trying to keep things simple while making it seem not simple. So with a little cutting, stamping, embossing and gluing...voila!
This is one of my first attempts at wet embossing since buying all the embossing tools...not bad! I was quite proud of myself that the silver embossing powder showed up really well. Furthermore, I was quite surprised with what I thought was my white embossing powder was actually my pearl clear embossing powder. Still looks great!
When you pull the ribbon at the top of the card, the card pops up...
...to reveal the message.
It's sooo simple to make. I just love it and will probably make quite a few of these cards this season...time permitting!
Supplies used:
3 sheets of 6" x 6" paper
Ribbon
VersaMark Watermark Stamp Ink Pad
Christmas Stamps
Embossing Heat Gun
Papercutter
Glue
