Best Year Ever

Hi Crafty Friends,

I am playing with a couple more things I received recently for Christmas. I just love this cute stamp set from Mama Elephant.

I created a Gatefold Shutter card using the Nellie Snellen Magic Card Round die set. When you open the card, the circle at the centre top opens up.

To create the background for this card I used Hero Art's Waves Stencil using Wild Honey; Spiced Marmalade and Candied Apples Distress Oxide Inks.

I added the dancing lion, kids and ornaments to the front of the card.

The sentiment is from MFT Stamps Good Fortune stamp set.

To finish off the front of the card I added Nuvo Drops in red and yellow.

Here you can see when the card is partially open and the sentiment in the top centre circle is only partly seen.

One final photo of my card when it is closed laying on my desk.
