Its time for another monthly round of Creative Construction with Blueprints over at MFT. Here is this months challenge....
Flaps, windows, and pull-out tabs are all inviting ways to encourage your recipients to interact with your creations. Our exclusive collection of Blueprints Die-namics include a variety of interactive design features and this month, our team is ready to inspire you to use them in your own creations.
Using Blueprints 30, I first used the small stitched rectangle to cut out a watercolor rainbow I made on watercolor paper. Next, I die cut the word HUGS right in the middle. Instead of popping out the die cut word, I added some Post it Tape to the back so it would stay attached. I used Glossy Accents to cover each letter for some dimension and shine.

I decided to go for a fun little gift card holder with a hidden special message.

I placed the sentiment panel on the gift card flap die and then attached it to a Summer Splash card base.
I die cut the gift card holder tabs on the card base and then stamped a sentiment that will show only when the gift card is removed from the card.
If you would like to receive this card in the mail, leave me a comment and I will draw a name!
Head on over to the MFT Blog to see what the rest of the team created for today's challenge. Thanks so much for stopping in today!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. I think I will CASE this for my granddaughter. She loves getting surprises in the mail.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet and colorful gift card holder, Laurie! Now I Think I "need" those Peerless watercolors. (You've already been so good to me you don't need to include me in the drawing...even though I love it.)
