Fa La La La Christmas Card with Irit

Hello my dear crafty friends!
Irit is here today and I welcome you to my first Christmas in August post.
The new BoBunny adorable Christmas collections are here!
So today I made an interactive and very fancy card and there is a full video tutorial too, so you can recreate my card if you like it. I used this Christmas in the Village collection and I am really in love with this collections lovely graphics and non- traditional Christmas colors.
My card this time has no Mixed Media add- ons, it's easy to make, and fits each and every crafter.
This is how it looks when standing as a regular card:

But wait- you are going to be amazed!
Let's open the topper :

 And now it's full opened!

Usually this kind of a card is made without  all bottom layers; the pop- up part is the actual card where you write the greetings.
I made it in a bit more layered style: the pop- up part is just the card topper/front and then there are a few more cardstock layers and the actual light blue card where you add your greetings/sentiments/ thoughts or whatever you wish.
 So here you can see all the layers on this standing card:

And if you want to try to make this  kind of card- HERE is a video tutorial for you to use.
Just a word about it: in the video the final part was mis- glued upside down and there were no way to change it in the video. But the final project was re- done and the pop- up part is glued in the correct direction.
As the video is mostly to teach the mechanism of this card the inside ornaments direction is not the issue and you can see the finished re- done project without any mistakes.

Interactive Cards

What a fun day...

We have cards that are interactive and a super fun idea for kids.

Quick story.... most women love handmade cards, right?

We tend to hang onto them if they are handmade.

That really wasn't my mom's thing... and that's okay.

But my dad... Different story.

I was helping my mom clean up one day and in my dad's dresser drawer...

There was every card/invite etc. I had ever made him.

It made my day, (and many many days since then too) to think

what I made was that important to him. The end.

 This fun little card swings open in the middle. 

I used the Prairie Chic Noteworthy package to decorate the whole card. 

There are so many fun elements in the package! 

Great for layering or for adding that little something.

 The little envelope was a piece from the Noteworthy package. I added a few other pieces to decorate it. I'm going to surprise someone with a gift card tucked inside.

Card Help

Mireille Divjak

 Interactive cards.. when I was thinking about this I couldn't get this "card Help" out of my mind. When I was younger my grandmother taught me children's card games. I had a lot of trouble holding the cards in my hands so she made me a card Help. 

 Seeing the playing cards on the patterned paper,

 kinda put one and one together. 

It's a very simple idea. 

I used 4 coasters, decorated them on both sides with patterned paper. 

Used Noteworthy for further decoration purposes. To protect the 

"Card Help" in case we want to play at sea in the summer I cut circles from plastic wrapping material. I put two coasters together, put the plastic 

circles on the outside, put buttons in the middle and poked holes. 

Then I stitched everything together. In the space between the two 

coasters you can put your playing cards.

Hope they will have hours of playing fun holding there BoBunny Card Help.
