Butterfly Reflections, Ink

  Happy Sunday!  Today, I'm sharing this super fun interactive card inspired by the March mood board!  Since St. Patrick's day is around the corner, I thought I'd create a fun interactive card using a mix of new and old Lawn Fawn products.  You'll find the products I used, as well as the new Lawn Fawn release at the Butterfly Reflections Ink store .   To start my card, I first ink blended an A2 piece of Bristol smooth cardstock using distress oxide inks kitsch flamingo and squeezed lemonade .  Then, I used the puffy cloud background to cut the cloudy background.  Next, using the stitched rainbow die, I cut a rainbow using various colored cardstock.  Then I used the swish 'n pop die to create a pull tab mechanism to allow the rainbow to move.  The stitched mountain border die , simple stitched hillside die and stitched hillside borders used to create the front panel of the card.  This panel is large enough for the rainbow to hide beh...

And, finally, the middle layer lifts to uncover a spot for a message!  This style of card is easy to make ... I simply cut two top-folding cards, flipped one upside down and adhered them together.   To make the little "leprechaun," I taped off the wings and bun of a fairy, inked the stamp, removed the tape and ... viola! ... stamped a leprechaun!  I had planned to fussy cut all of my images anyway ... I seem to be on a fussy-cutting kick! Here are a few close-ups of the card ... scroll to the bottom of this post for a list of supp...

I started by using the  Coffee Card Gift Holder Honey Cuts Dies . I am telling you right now...you need this die set!!

I then cut the top piece again with paper from the  Doodlebug Design: Lots O' Luck Paper Pad . I trimmed the bottom (overhang) off and attached it to my green cardstock base. If you use a full size sheet of paper you can skip this set...I wanted the pattern and I only had it in 6 x 6. Here is what that looks like: Next, I began working on my stamped images. I used the  Pretty Pink Posh: Best Of Luck Stamp Set  to stamp my leprechauns. I colored them with a variety of  Copic...
