Christmas Card Throwdown March Technique Challenge


I am thrilled to be the guest designer this week at Christmas Card Throwdown for the March Technique challenge. This time we are creating cards with a MOVING ELEMENT.  I created a card with Santa flying over a house. The movement mechanism is a strip of heavy weight acetate adhered to the sleigh with Scortape, and to the card base with a brad weighted down by a penny behind the popped up house.

Please stop by the design team members' sites and see how they have implemented moving elements.  

I am a novice at interactive cards so I am looking forward to seeing your creations in the gallery!

Enjoy!
