My Favorite Things Superstar Contest 2019

Hallo all,

Well it is that time of the year again the yearly My Favorite Things Superstar Contest has started and the last two years i competed in the contest and even won one year! So i could not stay behind and try not to make a card this year (or even there is more cards in there who knows!). So here is my entry for the Innovation Master category...

Stamps: Beast Friends, Ready Set Snow, Interactive Labels.  Dies: Beast Friends, Ready Set Snow, A2 Rectangle Stax, Stitched Clouds, Surf & Turf, Mountain High, Double Slider Loop Slots, A2 Rectangle Frames  Paper: Smooth White and Cement Grey, Watercolor paper, Copic paper  Ink: Mermaid Lagoon and Antique Linen Distress ink, Copic Markers, Memento Tuxedo black and Versafine onix black  Extra: Shaker material, A2 shaker rectangle Shaker Pouch, Glossy Accent, White acrylic paint marker.

It turned out into a shaker / slider card. My first idea was to connect the slider on the shaker element so if you would pull the slider the shaker parts would fall down. I did not get that to work so ended up making a shaker with a slider element behind it.


First off i made the background panels using Distress inks, water and white acrylic paint marker. I blended them together and splattered water, ink and paint onto it. Cut the three pieces using the rectangle dies and the rectangle frames. Put these aside and cut a double folded white topfold card. 


Die cut a white rectangle piece of cardstock and measured 1,5 cm of all sides. On the corners i partly die cut the double loop slider slots. Made two strips of plastic and attached this to the panel. I was now able to adhere the panels onto the moving mechanisme and test is out. Once it worked i glued it on the base card, but before i did that i heat embost the sentiments on top of the panels.I finished this part by adding a pull tab.

Now it's time to work on the shaker part. I glued the main panel on the base card and filled the shakerpouch with shaker material and glued it on the base panel. Then finished it of with the die cut strip. 



When all the mechanismes worked it was time to start building on the scene. I die cut several shaped dies and measured them at the right seize. Glued the mountain, snow and clouds on the side panels. Colored all the images and die cut them with the matching dies part by part. 


At last i did the middle part i stamped the sentiment and added the snow and cloud. under all the yeti's i added some Copic coloring to ground them. On the mountains i added some white geso.


Have a wonderful evening!

Greets, Marieke
