Now for some inspiration...
I had a blast making the inspiration cards for this challenge!
I hope you will enjoy them too!
I am no good at putting up tutorials,
so you can find the links to the tutorials for these cards here.
The first card I made is a
WHEEL SHAKER CARD
To make this card
I started out with the Simon Says Stamp 'Fish and bowl' stamp and die set.
Using the die in the set, I created a shaker element which has acetate on both sides.
In between the acetate, I cut some coloured vellum and sandwiched it to give the appearance of water. I added sequins ( I should have added more!) from 'Dress my Craft' and A1 Craft Supply.
I also stamped and die cut some fish and added them to the bowl..one on the inside and one on the outside.
I created the spinner mechanism as shown in this video by Sandy Allnock.
I finished the card with a sentiment from the same stamp set.
This was super fun to make and I hope you will try it!

Hello everyone!
My name is Sindhura and I blog at Paperminty.
First, I would like to thank Paru for this wonderful opportunity.
I was thrilled when I saw the
GD invitation mail in my inbox. :)
Since the challenge for this month is to create an Interactive card.
I made a pop-up card and a shaker tag.
I created a cute, fun scene on the card. Here it is...
First, I stamped all the images on Strathmore Bristol Smooth cardstock and coloured them
with Zig markers; then fussy cut them all out. I also die cut a few stips of grass.
I sponged some ink with the help of a die-cut stencil to make clouds in the background

This too was just too much fun to make!!
You will find a full tutorial here.
To make this card, I have used stamps from
Altenew's 'To the Moon' stamp set and My Favourite things 'Space Explorer' stamp set.
To colour, I used Camlin watercolours and Staedler water colour pencils.
The dies I used are from Spellbinders.
I used a white gel pen to add the stars and the little highlights.
I used queen and company circle frame dies to create a border around the window
and added black self adhesive gemstones for interest.
Do try out this card..You will love it!
To inspire you some more,
we have a fabulous card maker who makes the most extraordinary interactive cards.

This is how the pop-up opens on the inside of the card.
The next is the shaker tag...
To make this tag, I die cut a number of tag with windows die cuts. I did this to avoid using
foam tape. I backed all the stacked die cuts with a patterned paper. I adhered the adorable
elephants to finish the tag. I used the clear sequins as I didn't want them to be too distracting.
I hope you like what I made and you will participate in the challenge.
Good luck, friends.
I hope you have been inspired to dive in and make an Interactive card.
There are lots of resources on YouTube so check it out and let's see those shakers, sliders, pop-ups, box cards and any other cards that you can think of!!
I can't wait!
