Happy Birthday Jae

October 29, 2018

My granddaughter Jae is celebrating her 10th birthday today. Happy Birthday Jae. Jae loves cats and so I thought I would incorporate cats into her birthday card. I created a Waterfall card using the instructions from Splitcoast Stampers. However, I attached the front panel to scored and folded card. I attached a piece of Lovely Lipstick Designer Series paper from the 2018-2020 In-colour 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper to Whisper White card. I attached a piece of Lovely Lipstick card across the panel using a couple of brads from my retired stash. The waterfall mechanism is cut from Lovely Lipstick card. I used the Foxy Friends stamp set to stamp the images onto the four panels of Whisper White card using Gray Granite and Basic Gray ink. After attaching the images to the waterfall mechanism, I punched a hole in the end using my Crop-A-Dile and threaded a piece of Lovely Lipstick 1/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon to make it easy to pull and flip the images over. I stamped the greeting from the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set onto Whisper White card using Lovely Lipstick ink to decorate the inside of the card. You can see how the images flip over when you pull on the ribbon in the pictures below.

I had a lot of fun making this card for Jae and I know that Jae will enjoy the cats and the fact that the card moves. What about you, have you made one of these? If not, give it a try, it’s not as hard as it looks. Once again Happy Birthday Jae.
