I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, I cut them using the coordinating dies, and then colored everything using my Ohuhu markers in browns for the mice and bright rainbow colored for the balloons and presents. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Party Pets - small presents, party hats, balloons • Lazy Christmas - large presents • Harvest Mice + Merry Mice + Christmas Critters - mice.
I cut a 5 x 3,75 inches Surprise Party Banner panel using the largest Stitched Rectangle, cut the Sliding Window out of it, as well as the notch at the very top, and also cut a 5 x 3,25 inches Surprise Party Balloon panel.
I folded my Sliding Window Banner panel on the score lines, flipped it over, and added double sided tape to the slim bottom tab. I peeled the backing paper off this tab, flipped my Balloon panel over, and attached it at the back of my Sliding Window Banner panel, lining up the bottom edge of the Balloon panel with the edge of the slim tab. And I wanted to frame my sliding Banner panel nicely, so I cut a 5 x 3,75 inches Surprise Party Chevron panel, cut a Sliding Window out of it, as well as the notch at the top, I trimmed the center of that panel to get a frame, and stuck that frame to my Banner panel using liquid glue.
Next I cut a Surprise Party Sprinkles panel using the largest Stitched Rectangle, I flipped my Sliding Window panel over, and added foam strips along the bottom edge, on the long edges as well, but not along the top edge. I peeled all the backing papers off, and attached my sliding panel to the Sprinkles panel. Next I attached my panel to a 5,25 x 4 inches Surprise Party Polka dot panel, and finally to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Surprise Party Pink Starry panel.
And to complete my interactive panel, I attached the remaining piece of Chevron paper at the top of the Balloon pull tab panel, cut a gold mirror eyelet using a Sliding Window die, stuck that eyelet, pierced a hole through it, added gold thread twine with a rainbow bead to be able to pull the interactive panel, and a turquoise bow for a lovely decorative accent.
Next I decorated the front of my Sliding Window panel. I cut two Surprise Party Green Polka Dot panels as wide as the interactive panel (3 inches), used a die from the Ribbon & Lace Border die set to create two scalloped borders, attached those borders using liquid glue, and then stuck the images to the scalloped borders using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. To stick the balloons up in the air, I attached each of them to a slim strip of acetate, and then attached each end of the acetate strips next to each other at the back of the upper scalloped green border using liquid glue.
I created two different greetings: one for the pull tab, and one for the inside of the card. For the one on the pull tab, I simply white heat embossed "Happy Birthday" from Party Pets on black cardstock, I cut it with the matching die, and attached it to the pull tab using 1mm foam squares. For the greeting on the inside, I white heat embossed my Inside Greetings Belated Birthday sentiment on aqua cardstock, I framed it using the third smallest Limitless Labels 1 die, and I stuck the label inside the card using 1mm foam squares again.
To finish my card, I added a few extra details: I cut a 3 x 1/4 inch slim stripe out of a Surprise Party Stripe paper, and attached it to the tab right below the mice using liquid glue. Finally I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.
