{Neat & Tangled Video} Thank You Cards with Pop-Up Party Favours


We're celebrating my son's 8th birthday this weekend and instead of making some kind of box for the party favours, I decided to combine the favour pouch with a thank you card. That way, once the party favour is removed, the recipient still has a card to keep.



Here's a look at the LEGO pieces under the emoji flap on the inside. There are eight pieces that make up Lloyd, both good and evil, from the green ninja from the Ninjago stories.


I used four Neat & Tangled sets to create these 2-in-1 cards: Pixelated Circle Die, Pixelated Faces Dies, Square Thoughts and Itty Bitty Welcoming Committee. Using the first two sets, I created two emoji faces for the front of the card and the pop-up on the inside.


I used the partial die-cutting technique to create the flap on the inside, which reveals the party favour pouch.  Both sentiments were created using the Square Thoughts and Itty Bitty Welcoming Committee stamp sets.


I hope I've inspired you with this idea and would love to see what you make for your parties! Be sure to link up your project in the comments below so I can stop by to have a peek.


Thanks so much for watching!

{Crafts for Kids Video} My Christmas Surprise!


I'm so excited and proud to present the card and video my husband and son made for me. Last weekend, I was shooed out of my studio so they could work on it. Well, what can I say?! This is simply the best Christmas gift ever!!



Long-time followers of my blog already know that my husband makes cards for me on special occasions. I love that he does this (visit his album in my Splitcoast Gallery)! Actually, he knows it's a must. Heehee. When I suggested that he make one on video this Christmas, he was a bit hesitant. After some time, he decided to brave it, with our son acting as his creative director.


I love how my husband used our son's artwork, as well as the logo from LEGO® Legends of Chima™, as inspiration for his card. He used a Copic multi-liner and stencil to create the snowflake. The penguins and accessories are from Arctic Penguins (+ Creative Cuts) and the sentiment is from Jolly and Merry, both from Mama Elephant.


Thanks so much for stopping by! ❤
