A 3D display card

Hello friends, hope you are well and keeping safe. Today, I have a card to share with you using the adorable free digital stamps from Isabel Cristina. 

Cristina's blog post read, "Let's spread some love" and I couldn't agree more, spread love and kindness instead of fear and selfishness. I coloured my image with copic markers. I decided to make a 3D display card, as I am a big fan of Arte Banale, so I cased this card of hers. To create my scene, I die cut the hills and tress using Sunny Studios woodland borders.  The birch trees and birds were die cut from Lawn Fawn Birch Trees Die.

To create the window, I stamped the woodgrain stamp from Concord & 9th petals and pallets stamp set. Then I cut out the window using MFT A2 stitched rectangle stay 1. The sentiment "You are amazing" is from cristina's stamp Sentiment Chalkboard, and "thank you for everything" is from Hello Bluebird Fall friends. To create the pop up feature, I scored and folded 3 cm strip scored twice 1 cm apart. I made two of these and sandwiched one side. While the other two sides were connected to each panel as shown here.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Spring Moodboard

Crafty Gals Corner Challenge #206 - Spring 

Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes #434-435 Challenge

613 Avenue Create Challenge #232 - Anything Goes without optional twist

Thanks for stopping by. Till my next project, stay safe and happy.

Cruising by for a birthday wish!

Hello crafty friends. I'm on a roll with posting more crafty news on my blog these days. I would like to share my birthday card using Sunny Studios Cruising critters stamp. I love this image as it is so cute which I coloured with my copic markers. For the background, I used distress inks and added a road die and a cloud stencil (MFT) to finish the scene. I added balloons from MFT Birth-Yay I added a surprise birthday cake from the same stamp set using the Lawn Fawn Let's toast pull tab add on to show the hidden surprise. I finished the scene by adding a MFT banner diecut and stamped the word birthday. I added black gel roll glaze to the eyes to add dimension. Here is my finished card.

I am entering my card to the current  AAA birthday card challenge -
