Reveal Wheel

The challenge at the Male Room this time is to have a moving part.

For my card I decided to make a Lawn Fawn Reveal Wheel type card. 

This one is for my Grandson. 

The penguin is from Poppy Stamps, the word Christmas was masked from a stamp from HLS and the rest is all Lawn Fawn.

The die which cuts the front panel of the card is designed for an American card size, so in order for it to fit on a half sheet of A4, tent fold card base, I elongated the front panel by using the die to cut part way from each end, aligning all the piercing marks. Cutting the second panel for the base layer to exactly the same dimensions is a little more tricky but using the waste from the first cut, made it a little easier. The piercing marks also help a lot.

I used four different sentiments for the speech bubble window, here is another of them!

These are really fun cards to make and I'm sure they are just as much fun for the recipient!

I was lucky enough to be a top pick in a challenge at Inkspirational and was invited to be Guest Designer for them.  What fun!

Here is the inspirational pic for this challenge!

 I made a card using Lawn Fawn's fun Reveal Wheel dies. I cut out the front plate of the card, extending the depth a little in order to fit a British sized card. This is easy to do by partially cutting from one end, lifting the die and placing it a little lower down the card, turning the die and card round and partially cutting from the other end.

Here is a video I made extending a sentiment die but the principle is similar for extending the length of the Lawn Fawn die.

I coloured the wheel part with Gelatos in yummy Ice cream colours, and stamped the sentiment and tiny hearts from the Lawn Fawn complementary set of stamps.

Here is another card I made, this time using stamps from Altenew. I added a simple 'Sprinkles' dry embossed backdrop from Creative Embossing. The sentiment is from WPlus 9.

It's always a thrill to be asked to Guest Design for a challenge and I would like to thank Inkspirational enormously for this opportunity!
