PopOut Swing Fairy Birthday Card

I had fun with some of the newest Claritystamp offerings making this Pop Out Swing card.

Using the 2.75” largest nested circles Picot die, cut an aperture in the centre of the front of a 6” x 6” white card to create the outer card.

Take a second card and score the right side in half at 3”, fold in a concertina shape. Draw a light pencil mark down the centre of the left-hand side, line the aperture up over the top and draw around the left half of the aperture up to the pencil line. Cut the left-hand side using a craft knife and ruler and score above and below at 3”. This creates the card inner.

Stamp one of the small fairy Rounds onto Clarity stencil card in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink.

Die cut the image using the 2.5” nested circle die and a mat from black card using the corresponding nested circles picot die.

Die cut the Nested Circle Doodle Frame-Its Frames from a piece of Amazonia designer paper.

Add the fifth smallest die cut to the front of the card.

Add Happy Birthday to the front of the card using the Entwined sentiment stamp in the same ink as before.

Add one of the small Words of Wisdom stamps to the inside of the card in a similar manner.

Colour the fairy image using Faber-Castell Polychromos (#270, #159, #108, #193, #169, #132, #102, #189, #272, #273, #274, #146).

Colour the Words of Wisdom stamp in the same way.

Add the grass and medium deer from the new Autumn Seasonal Wreath stamps inside the card in coordinating inks (Forest Moss and Aged Mahogany).

Glue the insert into the card.

With the card closed, add the mat to the pop out section.

To finish, add the fairy topper into the centre.
