Hello! I have another card to share that I created with the new My Favourite Things Jungle Friends
card kit! This fun, jungle themed kit
includes everything you need to make a ton of cards including a
stamp set, 2 die-namics sets, patterned paper, cardstock, and 1 package of Spin & Slide discs.
And the best part... everything is perfectly coordinated
together so all you have to do is create! The kit is officially available now in the MFT online store.
For my card tonight I used the giraffe die to create an interactive card where the giraffe can move up to eat leaves on the tree. It's so fun to make the animals spin and slide on cards... so unexpected and fun for the recipient.
I created the scene first by diecutting the rectangle panel and the grass pieces from white cardstock and then I used distress inks to add colour to them with an ink blending tool. Once I had the pieces inked up I spritzed some water on them and then dabbed it off with a paper towel for a distressed look.
I diecut a giraffe image from white cardstock and used Copic markers to colour him in. I added spots of colour and shading to try and make him look more realistic. I diecut a spinner channel into the blue sky panel with the Surf and Turf die-namics and then adhered my giraffe with the spin & slide discs that come in the kit so he could move up and down the open channel.
I diecut the branches and leaves from the Jungle Friends die set, coloured them in with Copic markers and adhered them to the top of my scene so the giraffe would reach the leaves when he slid up the card.
I finished the card by adding some diecut clouds and stamping the sentiment directly on one of them with black ink. I also added gems to the giraffe for his eyes. I love the dimension they add since the image is completely flat.
Thanks so much for joining me for the new Jungle Friends card kit reveal. Don't
forget to head over to the MFT blog for all of the details on this fun new kit and to see more samples from the creative team!
