Easter Wishes

 Happy Easter!!  

 The current challenge at Art Impressions is "Easter Wishes".  Easter is such a great time of year.  Spring weather (or at least if we are lucky).  Today is a gorgeous sunny day but we have had one heck of a snowy winter.  This challenge has gotten me ready to head into spring.  

My card for today is a fun interactive one featuring the Art Impressions Bunny Pop-Up (#5359) and Happy Spring Set (#5504) stamp sets as well as the Rounded Rectangle A2 double stitch (#5062) smallest die.

I stamped the images on cryogen white cardstock and colored with copic markers.  I used a fence die cut I had in my stash and made it a pocket to hide the pop up Bunny.  The interactive piece is fairly easy to create for any pop up image.  I cut a slit in my background piece to fit a small pop dot.  I adhered one side of the pop dot to the bottom of my Bunny and placed the pop dot through the slit to the backside of the background.  I then cut my pull tab and adhered the other side of the pop dot to the pull tab.  I used foam tape to stabilize the pull tab mechanism from sliding around by placing the tape on the back side of the background on both sides of the pull tab.  Before adhering the background to the card base, make sure to adhere foam tape all along the back side of the background piece other than where the pull tab moves.  Now we can decorate the front.  Use double stacked foam tape to adhere both sides and bottom of the 'pocket' but making sure it does not conflict with the moving image.  I had to hide the ear of the Bunny behind the tree so it didn't show while hiding. 😀  

I hope my directions help but if you want to see it in action, youtube "Pull tab card tutorial" and you can find step by step instructions in video form.

Hope you enjoyed my card for the challenge and have a very Happy Easter.
