Hello! It’s time for another Anita Jeram blog hop release and giveaway from Colorado Craft Company! As I normally do, I’ve stamped out all the images from the collection and will continue to color them when I have time. Read to the end to find the giveaway information.
When I am purchasing stamps and coordinating dies, I ask myself if I’m really going to use the dies. Sometimes, I can’t find a reason to buy them but other times, I know exactly what I’ll do. Like this card I’m sharing today. I thought using the coordinating dies to make an interactive card would be so much fun! You can see it in action on Instagram and YouTube.
1. Stamp the Conga Line stamp set on Neenah Solar White cardstock with Intense Black Ink. Color with Copic markers. The list can be found at the bottom of this post. Die cut with coordinating dies.
I tried to keep the coloring lighter than I normally do so I added he lightest color first then the middle then darkest. After this I went in and darkened things up where they needed it.
2. Cut a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock to 3 1/2” x 8 1/2”. Use the Hero Arts Clouds and Grass Scenic stencil to add sun, grass and clouds using Squeezed Lemonade, Wild Honey, Rustic Wilderness and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Inks.
3. Use Lawn Fawn’s Lets Toast Pull Tab Add On die to create the pull tab feature. The slot is lined up between the third and fourth critter with the tab attached to the third one with foam tape.
4. Stamp the sentiment with Soft Navy Ink.
5. Add a double layer of foam tape to the back of the panel, avoiding the pull tab. Place on a slimline card base.
6. Add detail with a white gel pen.
It might be a good idea to die cut a blank of the critter die to make the image more sturdy. Especially if you use 80lb cardstock.
There are probably many different and better ways to make the critters move but this worked for me. Please subscribe to my blog so you’ll be notified when I post more Colorado Craft Company cards plus many others.
