Surprise Kitty In Pumpkin




Here is a video of the card in action. Sorry, I couldn't get the whole card in the video :(


Hello everyone! I have a super fun card to show you today! I worked on this card for awhile and am happy to say that it turned out JUST LIKE I WANTED! YAY!
When I saw the kitty and pumpkin in the new Create A Critter 2 cart, I thought....that would look so cute if the kitty could pop up out of the pumpkin. So I combined my knowledge of the Surprise Pop Up Card and created this one. When you pull on the tag, the kitties head comes out of the pumpkin. I am working on a tutorial for all of you, but just so you know the tutorial will be for these cuts in particular. This is a custom card and if you use different cuts, the placement would be different. But it will also give you an idea of how this card is assembled. The possibilities are endless with this technique. I could see a bear coming out of stocking, a chick coming out of an egg, or a jack in the box, for example.
All of the cuts on this card are from the Create A Critter 2 cart. I cut out the moon and glittered it up. The kitties face was stamped using Peachy Keen's Misty Sue from the sampler package of faces. The sentiment on the front and tag are from My Craft Spot's Best Witches To You stamp set.
I am going to enter this into the following challenges:

Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping in!
