Hi Stampers. Do you like cards that are just a little different? I sure do! I’ve seen a few cards made with mini magnets and couldn’t wait to give it a try! The idea is the magnet makes something slide across the card and you can even take it off. The Ride With Me truck seemed like the perfect fit! This card really makes more sense when you see it, so I did a Facebook Live video (see that video HERE).
I started with a Shaded Spruce card base and stamped the trees from Winter Woods onto a Whisper White layer in Shaded Spruce ink. I then stamped the truck onto Cherry Cobbler CS and cut it out. The window was cut out using an xacto knife and then backed with a tiny piece of Window Sheet. The bumper and rims were colored in with a silver gel pen and the tires with a Light Basic Black Stampin’ Blend. I used the Adhesive Strips to create a rectangle section behind the Whisper White layer where I want the truck to slide back and forth. (see the video for more information). The second magnet was adhered to the back of the truck. (You can order the mini magnets HERE).
A little puff paint added to the Whisper White layer over the trees gives the look of snow. The sentiment was stamped on a strip of Whisper White CS and attached to the back of the truck. You can pull on this flag to make the truck move back and forth.
I used another layer of Whisper White for the interior of the card. I inked the tree once and stamped it twice. That’s how I got the two shades of green. 🙂 The FB Live video is now on my YouTube channel.
