more color mondays – swing and sway in poppy parade, crushed curry and copper clay

Merry Christmas everyone!! I hope you had a great morning filled with lots of fun and I’m glad you are able to sneak away for a little crafting time!

Today’s More Color Monday Color Challenge is a very fun movement card as well!

This Swing and Sway card is inspired by fellow demonstrator Susan C. and I loved her card so i decided to make my own version with the upcoming Trusty Tools bundle in the 2024 January to April Mini Catalog and the coordinating DSP is something you can EARN FOR FREE during Sale-a-bration coming in January and February!

Score the 5 1/2″ x 10 1/4″ card at 4 1/4″, 7 1/4″ and 9″. Fold into a mountain fold at the 4 1/4″ score line and the 9″ score line. Fold into a valley fold at the 7 1/4″ score line.
Place the Basic White layer on the inside of the card. Fussy cut a small tool and adhere to the bottom right corner of the Basic White cardstock layer.

On the inside of the card, adhere the 2″ x 5 1/4″ piece of DSP in the second panel from the left edge.

Adhere the 3″ x 5 1/4″ piece of DSP on the outside of the card just to the left of the center 4 1/4″ fold.

Run the 1″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Poppy Parade cardstock through the Geometric Patterns embossing folder in the triangular pattern andadhere to the outside 1 1/4″ edge of the card.
Place a small Stampin’ Dimensional about 3/4″ from the top edge.

Die cut the 1/2″ x 2″ mechanism piece with the reinforcer circles from the Tailor Made Tags Dies set. Place the mechanism over the Stampin’ Dimensional.

Die cut the peg board out of the Oxidized Copper Specialty paper and fussy cut two tools from the DSP. Die cut the wrench out of the Holographic trio specialty paper to look like metal.
Adhere the tools to the peg board die and adhere the mechanism to the back of the peg board with the circle sticking out above the top end about 3/4 of an inch.

Peel the backing paper off of the Mini Stampin’ Dimensional.

Stamp the sentiment in Copper Clay ink on a 1/2″ strip of Basic White paper.

Punch the sentiment piece with the Banners pick a punch and adhere to the Stampin’ Dimensional.

Because the sentiment piece is only adhered to the Stampin’ Dimensional and the peg board die piece hangs freely around the Stampin’ Dimensional inbetween the peg board piece and the card it hands and swings and sways with ease!

Such a fun and interactive card!

Try this fun fold movement card with what you have in your stampin’ stash!

happy stampin’
