A Card for Felicity

Good morning

The Giants have taken over my city again


Thousands of people have lined the streets for this spectacular which alas will be the last time they visit us


  I think the star attraction, for the children especially, is the very lifelike Xolo the dog


And talking of children, my husband's Granddaughter Felicity will be 2  this month...
I saw a super interactive flip card made by Laura Bassen ... Here
and thought I could make a similar one for Felicity
I don't have the die (by Mama Elephant) but it reminded me of one of the waterfall cards we all used to make so it was easy enough to I make my own


There are 4 animals... 2 chicks, a cat and a monkey


Kind of difficult to photograph but you get the idea - As you pull the tag each card flips over to reveal the next... It's like a horizontal version of the waterfall card


I do enjoy interactive cards and I had fun making this 

I hope you have a lovely weekend

Thanks for stopping by

Yes, it's just like a waterfall card and I love it! I know these are actually easy to make, but have I ever made one? No, tsk tsk. Kids love interactive cards so Felicity will get a kick out of this. And, oh oh OH, that dog!!! Oh, my gosh -- wow! I have to show Rich. What a fantastically fun event!

I was really surprised at the picture of the giant feet when I visited your blog! What great pictures and video! The interaction of the giant dog and the white dog is so fun and interesting. Thanks for sharing them.
I love the adorable waterfall birthday card! Felicity will love the custom made interactive card with all the cute animals!

Oh no! Why is the the last time the giants will be there? Yes, the waterfall cards have made a comeback. You did an awesome job making it without dies. Sometimes the old ways are the best huh. LOL Sooo cute!

Oh my goodness--how cute is that with the real dog meeting the puppet! What a wonderful event--too bad they aren't coming back to your city. Your card for Felicity is so fabulous, Ros--a treasure! I've seen waterfall cards, but never made one. Think I really prefer doing it horizontal like you did--just adorable! Sending hugs as I recover from a bug that suddenly got me Saturday night. Just need to gain my strength back now.
