Blogger’s Challenge Week 43
This week’s Blogger’s Challenge was to use chipboard. I found this really fun interactive card at Creative Cuts & More - now I love cards with motion, but really struggle - EXCEPT for now. You can get cards already die cut and all you have to do is assemble and embellish - really doesn’t get any easier. I really have a problem (or maybe no patience) for cutting, scoring, folding and figuring out how movement cards work - this makes is super easy. My chipboard is the 8 for a special young man’s eight birthday. Card details below.
Die cut Sliding Pop Up Card exclusive to Creative Cuts & More in
Base - Bazzill Smooth Lime Crush embossed with Cuttlebug embossing folder - Numbers Collage
Sliding pop up - Bazzill Smooth Kiwi Crush - center cut covered with Basic Grey’s “Cupcake”
Pull Up - Bazzill Smooth Banana Bliss - a little tab from SU punch, painted with Ranger Crackle paint “Fired Brick”, and some rub-ons for the sentiment.
The 8 is from Heidi Swapp painted with Ranger Crackle paint “Fired Brick” and adhered just below the fold. The “Happy Birthday” sentiment (SU) was stamped with Black Onyx (VersaFine)
