Today I'm posting with the Design Team for the Classic Design Challenge as we open the August/September challenge. Our challenge is always Anything goes and our Twist for this month will be 'Happy Birthday'.
A big thank you goes out to our sponsor, Mirtillamente Digital Designs. For my project card, I've selected their Lisa LeGine Happy Birthday and made a 'wobbler' birthday card.
I started by printing and coloring the image with Copics in bright neon colors to match the flowery glitter paper I'd selected. I colored about a 1/4" border on the outside of the image with the green neon and then cut out the birthday girl and set her aside. Next I die cut the black background mat using Gina Marie Designs Pierced Nested Die. I trimmed the flowered print to fit the 5 3/4" square card base and secured it. Then I added the black mat on the left side, near the fold.
For the sentiment I used the words that came with the digital package but I retyped the work BIG and enlarged it to fit the card theme. After trimming each word, I doodled around and added the green neon to the edges then added to the card base on the right side.
To attach the birthday girl, I used a 'wobbler' spring, which is a purchased plastic spring with adhesive on both ends. One attaches to the card base and one to the object you want to move or wobble. Here's a short clip ~
