Magic Window

Happy Easter weekend
I hope you are all doing ok under the circumstances.
Fortunately the weather has been kind, so that's been a bonus.

A kind friend gifted me a die set, that makes an interactive card...
Magic Windows Slide and Reveal by Angela Poole.

Below was a first attempt, cutting one circle from the black n white paper,
you might just see the tab you have to pull around the circle to reveal
the other paper circle detail.


Here's a second attempt below, using more paper, the centre disc can be covered 
with a sentiment or embellishment, such as the butterfly above.
I thought this had a better contrast with the "reveal"

I then had the confidence to make a couple of actual cards........
I always have a try-out first with new tools, do you?

So below, the lovely mermaid paper....
reveals unicorns


Then the wizards........
reveal dragons and knights


It was fund making these, once I got the hang of it.
I think these will be cool for kids :)

See you back here tomorrow......
no cards, but a peek around my garden....
Take care
Lesley

  2. I'm fascinated by this die Lesley and love the cards you've made with it. It reminds me of a vintage-style book the children were given one Christmas with the same mechanism - magical! Vicky xxx
