Hello everyone
This is DT Priyadarshini here today with a very simple and easy interactive using DIY PAPER CRAFT KIT - KIDS SPECIAL - BIRTHDAY THEME along with Dinosaur and friends. The card for today is a Pull & reveal card and even though there are dies available for the same, I thought I will not use them and instead show how to make it without any dies. I have a write below as well as video tutorial on how I made this card.
This is a regular A2 size top fold card and to start with, I stamped the dinosaur image and the cupcake image on white circle die cut piece. It is not necessary for it to be circle, it can also be square. I took two sizes of circle, where the largest one will be shown on the top and the smaller one will be hidden.
To make the mechanism (Split in three parts)
Part A
I took a white card stock measuring 1 1/4 inches by 5 inches
Along the 5 inch side, from my left side using a scale I made a mark at 1 inch and 1/8 of an inch from the first line. Using a score tool, I scored both the lines well.
Along the short side and along the scored lines, I made a mark at 0.5cm (3/16 of an inch)on the sides and drew a straight line and then cut them out.
Part C
Once the mechanism is ready, I need to make the next part which is necessary for the mechanism to work.
I have a 3.5 inch black cardstock and 3.25 inch pattern pattern added together.
I flipped it over and places the largest circle die and made two marks at either side which measures 7/8th of an inch.
Using an excato/paper knife I made small slit and then the mechanism piece will slide in freely.
Once the mechanism fits in the square part, its time to assemble the card together.
If you can see the above picture, I did not add the circle piece close to the mechanism or cover it because the pull part will not work. So its best to leave a little space and add.
To finish the card, I added the sentiment and couple of gemstones.
Thank you for stopping by and hope you all enjoyed the card.
Stay happy and keep crafting.
