All Wrapped Up

 New challenge at Art Impression's this week is "All Wrapped Up".  I decided to make an interactive card because those are my favorite.  I used the Art Impression's slider die (an oldie but a goodie) and created my own little twist to it.  The whole inside of the track is suppose to slide to reveal the image underneath but I made it so only a portion slides revealing what is inside the present.  The present is a die from my stash but you can easily make your own or use any other die you may have.  You just need it wider than the track so it hides the image inside.  I also used the Art Impression's Baby Critter set. This set has the cutest images and are the perfect size plus it includes the dies for each image.  Such a fun set!!



I stamped the images on Xpress It cardstock and colored with copic markers.  I inked blended the background and used pattern paper for the grass.  I have been wanting to use my present die for the longest time and since the challenge was "All Wrapped Up", the first thing of thought of was a present. I just love the bow that comes with this die and thought it would make a great pull tab.  Just had to reinforce it with an extra die cut and glued them together to make it stronger.

Hope you enjoy my card and have fun crafting!

Tag you're it!

 Tags are the theme for this week's Art Impression's challenge.  What better way to add fun and flare to your package than with a tag.  You can add them to cards, presents, scrapbook pages, etc.  I chose to make a window tag card using the Art Impression's Tag Stitch Die and the Castle Cubbies stamp set.


  I stamped the images on cryogen white cardstock and colored with my copic markers.  I cut the front of my A2 base and pattern paper with the Tag Stitch Die to make the window.  I then cut another tag from the pink cardstock to make the inside tag base for the castle.  The sentiment came from the Cubbies set and was cut with the banner tag from the Stitch die set.  The unicorns, dragons, princess and knight are part of the Cubbies set which includes the individual stamps and dies.  So much fun to color and arrange within the doors and windows of the castle.  

Hope you enjoy my window card and have a fun day crafting.
