For a "TEA-riffic" Mom

Here's another Peek A Boo style card I made This one was for mom's birthday which was back in December. Oopsie...I'm still trying to catch up on my postings!

Used Kimono Marci digital stamps from Lala Land Crafts   for mom's card, colored her with Copics and paper pieced her kimono with washi paper. I used an embossing folder from the Cuttlebug Asian bundle for the textured background.

The white border trim on the front of the card was punched using an EK Success Modern Cube edge punch. Cherry blossoms were punched from various sized punches from Carl and I used adhesive flat back pearls for the flower centers.

Here's how the Peek A Boo card looks as it's being opened. 

As you open the card, the image you saw in the window on the front of the card becomes covered by another panel and image sliding over it.

Here's the view from the top which shows how this works.

Here's the card opened completely showing Lala Land's Kimono Marci with Tea digital stamp.



Cutting file for the fans with the sentiments are from Cricut's Pagoda cartridge. 

Peek A Boo cards are always a fun interactive card to make and receive. You can find a very good detailed tutorial for this by Norma on her blog, In My Craft Room.
