Hello Sunny Studio friends. Marieke here with you, and today I hope to inspire you with an interactive card using the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die combined with the Magic Iris die.

So for this card I cut a watercolor panel using the Magic Iris Die. Ink Blended the panel using Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio Distress ink. For the sky I used Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade. The Magic Iris Addon Is just as big as the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die. So I cut the ink blended panel another time this time with the Tropical Trees Backdrop die. Die cut the backdrop another time out of kraft cardstock.

Out of kraft and green cardstock I cut the trees, out of the leaves and ink blended the trees using Walnut Stain and Peeled Paint Distress ink. Adhered them together, ink blended the "beach" also with Walnut Stain and adhered it onto the ink blended rectangle. Die cut the clouds, added some Fossilized Amber and adhered them onto the panel.

Die cut all the parts for the magic slider and assembled it. Ink Blended the arrow mechanism with Spiced Marmalade. Temporarily added the closed iris behind the panel and traced the horizon line. Ink Blended the Iris using the right colors.
Cut a Kraft rectangle, cut a white top fold base card and glued them together. Temporarily added the ink blended panel onto the kraft rectangle and glued the die cut circle onto it. Stamped the sentiment from the Inside Greetings Congrats onto it. Glued the iris onto the back of the ink blended panel and onto the basecard.

Hello crafty friends, Marine here with you today! Yes, I am back with a
Christmas card! In June! It might be a bit early, but when I saw those palm
trees from the Tropical Trees Backdrop die set, it clicked in my head and I immediately pictured a nativity
scene, with black silhouettes, during a bright starry night.
I started off by cutting an 8,5 x 3,5 inches bristol panel, and I first created sand dunes using a slimline hill stencil along with tumbled glass and blueprint sketch oxide inks. And for the sky, I went with prize ribbon, chipped sapphire and black soot oxide inks. I kept the sand dunes without any texture, but I wanted the night sky to be full of stars, so I added lots of details on that part of the card: water splatters, white ink and liquid sparkles.
Next I cut the different elements out of black cardstock to create silhouettes. I cut four palm trees and two borders using the Tropical Trees Backdrop die set, and used coordinating dies from Holy Night to create the nativity scene. And I attached all those pieces using foam squares: the borders at the bottom, the nativity scene in the middle and two palm trees on each side.
I embossed my "O holy night" sentiment from Holy Night in silver on a small black Stitched Circle Large that I attached in the middle of the card, and I finished my card by adding more stars in the sky using a white gel pen.
