It's my eldest daughter's Birthday Today! Happy Birthday Emma! So of course I've spent the last month, well-nearly, making her a Birthday card. I've been having a go at doing a Flap Flap card and watched Sam Calcott's YouTube tuturial. Third time I followed the 6x6 how to, and got it right! I've added a link a quick YouTube video showing what's going on inside of my card HERE
Pull the tab and another layer pops out...pull again and...
...these two pages flip out. I was going to add a stamped 'Cheers' and a 'Happy Birhday" but chickened out because I just knew I'd smudge it if I did! The papers are from TrimCraft, now called Craft Lable, ButterFly Kisses, I bought the bundle a while back which included loads of other things, including the topper, gems and flower, which I've added here. (plus buttons, pegs, gems, flowers, butterfly sequins, wooden butterflies etc) The 'happy day' sentiment is wooden and coloured with a Promarker. The little B is a diecut. (all Die cuts used were from 'The Works') The stamped Penny Black images, from my stash were also coloured with ProMarkers. (bought them from a crafty charity shop and this is the first time I've used them!)
On the inside of the card, I later added a lilac miri card 'Happy Birthday' circle with a balloon. (Seen in the video, link above) Then on the back I added a topper and some party sequins. To finish, I added a Wink of Stella on the Pussy Cats.
That's it! I hope to add this card to some challenges later. Thank You for stopping by!
