The sentiments says "Let's get together" and see that little arrow on the card? It says "pull here" and when you do:
It reveals the second part of the sentiment "it's been too long". I wasn't going to actually pull the tab but DD got 'curious' and started yanking on it before I could stop her. So now I have before and after pictures to show you, lol.
This is what the panels look like before final assembly. A tip for those using the dies: I embossed (instead of die-cutting) the bottom yellow layer cs so I could see where to stamp the second sentiment. In Nichole's video she uses a ruler and pencil to mark where the sentiment should go but I thought it was easier to just emboss it.
Im also submitting this card to CR84FN50 Color Challenge: Pink, Orange, and Yellow.

That is a neat card, love how that zipper die works.... and great tip on the marking of the embossing where the sentiment is - your idea seems easier....
ReplyDeleteNice card and I like your before and after - thanks to your sweet DD :). Great tip about emboss where to stamp.
ReplyDeleteYou always have the coolest cards and crafting tools!! I love this one, such a cute idea for that zipper peek-a-boo for the sentiment. And I think your idea of embossing is cool, it shows the negative (or is that positive?) side of the die.
ReplyDeleteCute idea!!
Have a great weekend!
;)
Love this card. I remember seeing just the pull strip on the forum. How nice to see the entire card. What a fun card.
ReplyDeleteLove the colours on this and great tip about embossing. I also like it matted with a larger piece behind the front panel. Great job with the new die! :)
