Happy Cute 21st Birthday [Reveal Wheel]

 Hi everyone, I hope you are well :) A very quick post from me tonight. I made this card just over a week ago as a young lady I work with celebrated her 21st birthday. She had seen one of my interactive cards a few weeks ago and she loved it. I decided I would make her a reveal wheel card.

Using Lawn Fawn goodies -

I was making this in a bit of rush but happened to take progress shots for my co-workers. The photos aren't great as I wasn't even going to blog this card but you will get the idea :)

Getting everything ready to colour and assemble.

I smothered the die cut sentiment with glossy accents and left it overnight to dry.

I added a sparkly 21 to the inside of the card.

Many Thanks [Reveal Wheel]

 Hello!

I decided to spend some time in my craft room yesterday to create a specific card I needed.

When I had my surgery, my mum and step-father drove up the East coast of Australia (about 1300kms) so they could be at home with me to help while I was in recovery.

I had to post something to mum and wanted to include a card to say a huge thank you.

I decided on a new to me stamp and die set which was a collaboration set by Lawn Fawn and Hero Arts.

It's called 'Big Thanks'. The palm trees are from the LF set called 'Life is Good'.

I decided to make a reveal wheel card.

Below you can see that the sentiment changes when the wheel is spun.

I coloured all the images with my Zig Real Brush markers.

The sky and grass were created using distress oxides.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers (Colourful (no snark from me this time)), My Time to Craft (No Patterned Papers), Crafter's Cafe (Layer it Up), Crafty Animals (Anything Goes), Dies R Us (Anything Goes with a brand they sell), Addicted to Stamps and More (Die Cuts and/or Stencils),

Shake your Tail Feathers! [Magic Picture Changer]

 Hi there!

While playing around with my new stamps and dies, I created a Magic Picture Changer card for my niece who is turning 8 next month. 

I used the Peacock Before 'n Afters and Birthday Before 'n Afters (new to me sets) to create my cute peacock birthday scene. 

I love when the tab is pulled how the peacock has his proud feathers out for all to see :)

All stamps and dies are by Lawn Fawn - 'Cloudy Stencil', 'Grassy Border Die', and 'Extra Sentiment Banners'. I also used the Magic Picture Changer Add-on for the larger frame. The Happy Birthday sentiment is from LF 'Hay There'.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Allsorts (Happy, Bright, Sunny Colours), Crafter's Cafe (Girls or Ladies), Mix it Up Challenge (Layering), Cut it Up (Nature), Cardz 4 Galz (Things with Wings), Simon Says Stamp (Dies and/or Punches), AAA Birthday (Happy Birthday)

Magic Picture Changer

 The Lawn Fawn magic picture changer die has been around for some time, but I have only just added it to my stash. I've loved making interactive cards for years and any die set that will help me create them easier, I have to have!

I started with a fairly basic scene for my first time making this card. I stamped the dog then created a mask so I could stamp the fireplace and rug 'behind' him. The trick was stamping it a second time and trying to get the colouring somewhat similar.

I also used the Magic Picture Changer Add-on (the rectangle die) to frame my scene.

When you pull the tab, it is revealed that on the night before Christmas, the dog is dreaming about a yummy bone!

I had some spare presents that I had already coloured to add. The sentiment was heat embossed and die cut using LF Extra Sentiment Banners.

All stamps (except the previously coloured presents) are from the LF Christmas Dreams set.

The base of my card is a panel I had previously created with brusho and mica powders.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Christmas 24 (Christmas Night), Christmas Crafts all Year 'Round (I = Interactive Card), 12 Months of Christmas (Anything Goes), Crafty Catz (As cute as you like), CRAFT (Christmas), Fezziwigs (Sentimental), Watercooler Wednesdays (Any Occasion), Simon Says Stamp (Four Legged Friends), NBUS (Anything New Goes)

Christmas Reveal Wheel

 I made this fun Christmas card using the Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel die and fun stamps and die sets.

I actually started with the Reveal Wheel square add-on but then added all the snow layers down the bottom because I wanted to pop the little car in the scene.

I stamped and coloured my images from the Lawn Fawn sets - Reveal Wheel Sentiments, Reveal Wheel Holiday Sentiments, Winter Village, Car Critters Add-on, and Home for the Holidays. I die cut the silver stars using the Snow Globe shaker Add-on. I also added the Reveal Wheel Arc Frame Add-on for interest.

As you can see, the sentiment changes when you spin the wheel :)

Mice on Ice [Double Slider Card]

 Hi everyone! How was your weekend? It's Monday morning here (my day off work) so of course I'm in my craft room :) I would like to share a card with you that I finished off over the weekend.

It's a double slider surprise card! I used a NBUS stamp and die set by Lawn Fawn called Mice on Ice in conjunction with others to create this interactive card. I've had these mice for a number of weeks and decided it was time to ink them up.

Pull the tabs and what do you find?

Aren't those skating mice just adorable! I can't ice skate or roller skate to save my life - this would be quite adventurous for me to do!

I have also used the following products - Double Slider Surprise Die set, Winter Village, and Stitched Hillside Borders.

This cute scene was inspired by this card HERE

All my images were coloured with polychromo pencils. The background was created using distress ink and flicking white acrylic paint for the snow.

You may wonder why an Aussie girl creates so many snowy scenes for Christmas Cards... It's so bloody hot here at Christmas we all dream of a White Christmas at some time in our lives ;)  Funny enough, one year it DID snow here on Christmas Day - in Canberra (the capital of Australia). It was 1987. It didn't stay on the ground for long but as a 12 year old, it was pretty cool to see, lol.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Moving Along with the Times (Create a Scene), Creative Knockouts (Lots of Layers), Timeout (Be Adventurous), Watercooler Wednesdays (Occasions), Darnells NBUS Challenge (Anything New Goes), 2 Crafty Critter Crazies (Anything with a Critter), Christmas 24 (Christmas Animals)

Christmas Slider

 Hi! Yep, I'm still in interactive card making mode...

This card was actually pretty quick to create. I stamped and coloured my images then die cut them. I assembled the slider part using 5c pieces (they are our smallest coin in Australia).

I used stamps and dies from Lawn Fawn - WinterVillage, Home for the Holidays, Slide on Over, and Stitched Hillside Borders.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Australian Themed Christmas Reveal Wheel Card

 Hello! Another interactive from me and this one is based on an Australian Christmas. 

The car is parked by the beach filled with presents for when everyone comes back for a BBQ after a swim :)

This is a reveal wheel card so the sentiment changes as the wheel is turned -

I stamped all my images, coloured them with polychromo pencils, then glued them onto the panels I had prepared. The grass was die cut with the Grassy Border Die, I used the Lawn Fawn stitched hillside border dies to create my sand and water and coloured with Distress inks.

I've used a number of other Lawn Fawn products - Car Critters stamps and dies, Life is Good stamps and dies, Reveal Wheel Holiday Sentiments, Ho-Ho Holidays stamps and dies.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Fezziwigs Festive Frolics (Interactive Card), Watercooler Wednesdays (Occasions), Christmas Crafts all Year 'Round (Two things starting with 'S' - Sand & Sun), Die Cut Divas (Holidays), The Merry Little Christmas Challenge (Anything Goes), The 12 months of Christmas Link Up (Say it with a Sentiment)

Total Opposites

Me again with another coupla cards :)

I have one card that is completely CAS (my favourite style) and one card that is totally over the top including being interactive!

Card #1

This card is inspired by the current challenge at AAA cards. It's a sketch with an optional twist of: At the Movies. My card is based on the 1995 Australian film 'Babe'.

Card #2

Yes, another reveal wheel card. This time it's for Christmas. I spent most of the day getting it all ready (well in between housework and other boring things) by stamping a heap of images and colouring them in, die cutting all the elements, then putting it all together. I'm really happy with how it turned out!

When you spin the wheel, the sentiment changes -

I would like to enter my cards over at the following challenges -

Card #1 - AAA Card Challenge (Sketch + option), My Time to Craft (CAS), Seize the Birthday (Anything Goes)

Reveal Wheel Card

Hello! I'd like to share my very first reveal wheel card :)

I ordered goodies direct from Lawn Fawn a number of weeks ago. Shipping from the US to Australia took what seemed forever (I guess due to Covid) so it really was happy mail when it finally arrived!

Just in time for Father's Day which is next weekend, yay!

I used the Reveal Wheel die, Car Critters stamps and dies, and the tree is from the Down Under Critters set. I was inspired by the cards made over at Lawn Fawn to mask and ink up the road and grass. Everything else was coloured with polychromos.

Below is a collage of all the photos when you turn the wheel. You can see how the little bears change :)

I also bought the reveal wheel stencil for the Car Critter add on and it gives you the option of revealing either 3 or 4 windows. I went with the 3 to begin with.

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -

Just Add Ink (Just add Guys), Lawn Fawn (Make the sentiment the star), Cute Card Thursday (Inky), Watercooler Wednesdays (Occasions), Cardz 4 Guyz (Explore Outdoors)
