Hi crafty friends! Happy Weekend! Hope you're out having fun and enjoying the season. I'm finishing up the last of my Christmas projects and posting them. Some stamping companies have already moved on to Valentine's Day projects! EEK! I am running out of time to share holiday cards with you. I have a few more! My cards aren't mailed out yet either! Never enough time at the holidays right??
BEEP BEEP! I have a cute and happy card to share on today's post! A little Christmas car, loaded with presents, and driving over the river and through the woods! This card was super fun to make! I used stamps and dies from Ellen Hutson and Impress Stamps...oh and an action wobble too!
I started with a red card base, A2 size. Then I used bright white cardstock and die cut it using the pretty Snowfall Backdrop die from Ellen Hutson. I stamped the sentiment in black onto the bottom of the snowy layer and set it aside. I stamped the car stamp and cut it out with some small scissors because I knew I wanted it to pop off the page!
It was pretty easy to cut out this stamp - not too many small parts! I used a black pen and wrote the word 'merry' on the license plate! I colored the car in using my Copic Markers in Christmas colors.
I die cut lime green Christmas trees from the Ellen Hutson Winter Window Die set. I tried to create a little forest for my car to drive through. Now the super fun part! I used an action wobble to attach the car to the card! It shakes down the road! LOL! (Kind of like how I drive!). It's super cool in person. Have you ever used action wobbles?? They lay flat for mailing but then they pop up when the person opens the card.
Here's a side view of the wobble! It's a teeny tiny plastic spring!
I love wood mounted stamps....I have a pretty good collection, but I always like to add new ones!
That's my card for today! Best wishes for a great week to come! XOXO See you soon!
SUPPLIES FOR TODAY!
Wanda this is ADORABLE!!! Love the wiggly effect! Hugs.

Love wood block stamps.... going to check it out. This is such an adorable wobble. The tree idea really looks great. I have been checking out the Valentine stuff, my Christmas cards are in the hands of the post office!

Really cute card! And the “wobble” element is the “cherry on the top”!

Wanda this card is so fun and cute! Like everything about it. I have never tried the action wobbles but think that really adds to the card. Have a lovely week!
