Interactive Owl Card

Posted in Stamping, Tutorials, Video Cards Tags: , , , 19 comments

I’m so happy! I hung out with my upline this weekend (the demonstrator that I signed up under) and she generously gifted me with two sets of brand new stamps. One was an adorable set of owl themed images called Owl Together Now. Apparently, owls are quite the trend lately. I happily mounted and played with the stamps over the weekend and came up with a cute interactive card idea to share.

This card is a bit more complicated than my usual cards and it includes moving parts, so I prepared a video tutorial for you to watch.  As you can see in the two pictures below, the owl on the right slides back and forth, into the arms of the owl on the left. Cute, no?:-)

Card Recipe (all supplies SU unless noted): Owl Together Now stamp set, cardstock and ink in baja breeze, chocolate chip, riding hood red, and whisper white, ribbon in chocolate chip, Haiku designer paper, water color pencies, aqua painter pen, stampin’ dimensionals, sewing machine & white thread.

In the video, I explain how to make the slider portion of the card. You can use this idea for all kinds of cards, like a moving animal on a baby card, a snowflake falling to the ground, etc. Interactive cards are an easy way to impress a recipient.:-)Enjoy!

Thanks for such an easy technique that looks difficult. The “Brad” part was so cute as were the notes about your head. I’ll be trying this and using it for lots of cards.
