to have it hold a “Jack-o'-lantern Treats” bag. I dressed up the black cat in the style of Kuromi-chan with a ribbon and a cape. For the background, I stamped the “Cozy Vibes Cling Stamp .” For “You're Scary Sweet,” I used the stamp and die from “Heroween 13days of Crafty Treats : Day 2.”
When you slide it open to form an easel, the message “Boo!” appears. I used the stamp included with “Heroween 13days of Crafty Treats ” for this as well.
The message “Warm Fuzzies” that appears when you set it to easel mode is from a stamp I own.
イーゼルにしたときに出てくるメッセージWarm Fuzzies は手持ちのスタンプです。
Step By Step Dancing Mechanism
For one of the cat pieces, cut the bottom edge into a rounded shape.
For the other piece, use the lower part of the body.
猫ちゃんの一枚は下側を丸くカットします。
もう一枚は、胴下を使います。
Score the background card 0.5 inches from each end, then fold it in the center.
背景のカードの両端0.5インチに折り目をつけ、さらに中心で折ります。
Affix the cat's lower body at the position shown in the photo, and cut a hole with a 2 cm diameter in the center.
猫の胴下を写真の位置に貼り、中心に直径2cmの穴を開けます。
Draw a rivet with an arm. Draw a circle slightly larger than 2 cm, then draw an arm extending from the bottom. Cut along the red line, making the cut extend slightly beyond the inner hole.
Insert both ends of the rivet from behind the hole.
リベットの両端を穴の後ろから通します。
The flaps at both ends are bent forward. Check if they spin freely; if the fit is too tight, extend the slits.
両端の羽が前に出てます。くるくる回るか確認し、きつい様なら切り込みを伸ばします。
Make the pull tab. Create two strips, each 3/4 inch wide.
プルタブをつくります。4/3インチ幅の二本の帯をつくります。
Two sheets are bonded together to increase strength.
2枚を貼りあわせ強度を強くします。
Check the width of the arm on the back side, then cut two slits slightly longer than that width.
裏側のアームの幅を確認しそれより少し長く2本のスリットを入れます。
Insert the arm into the slit, wrap the band around it, and secure the band so that it moves in a straight line.
スリットにアームを差し込み、バンドを巻き付けまっすぐ動くようにバンドを固定します。
Easel Mechanism
Wrap a 1-inch-wide strip around the card base to create a band.
カードベースに、1インチ幅の帯を巻き付け、バンドを作ります。
Remove the band from the Card base and apply it, aligning it with the crease located 0.5 inches before the mechanism.
カードベースからバンドを外し、仕掛けの手前0.5インチの折り目部分に合わせて貼ります。
Attach the message card to the card base. Affix the front edge so that it slightly overlaps the 1-inch band, and trim the back edge to fit the desired position for the easel before attaching it.
Check to see if the cat stands up when you slide it, and if it sways when you pull the tab.
スライドさせたときに、猫が立ち、プルタブを引いたときにゆらゆら揺れるか確認します。
I also used this mechanism for the Specutacler Christmas cards, so please take a look at that as well if you're interested. I’ve made the design simpler this time around.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for purchasing my products and for supporting my handmade creations.
Following last year’s Craftoween, this year’s Heroween 13-Day Challenge brought excitement and surprises every time I opened a box. For me, those days were a wonderful opportunity to try out new mechanisms and use existing ones in creative ways.
It was also a real pleasure to see what everyone else was creating—it was a fantastic time that was incredibly inspiring.
Here’s a quick look at all 10 cards. I combined Days 5 through 8 onto a single card, so there are 10 in total. If I have time, I’d like to make them all over again, one by one.

Using the Dracula costume and dress dies from the “Classic Mouse Costume Party Etched Dies” and “ Classic Mouse Wedding Etched Dies” sets, I created mice dressed as Dracula and made a pop-up card that looks as if they’re flying on a bat. When you open the card, it looks as if they’re really floating through the air.
のドラキュラコスチュームとドレスのDieを使って、ドラキュラに扮したマウス達を作り、こうもりに乗って飛んでいるかのようなPop up Cardを作りました。カードを開いたときにふわふわと本当に飛んでいるかのようです。
I imagined a mouse dressed as Dracula riding a bat back into the room. Blood-red moonlight streams in through the window, and the black curtains are decorated with spiderwebs and red spiders. Candles burn eerily atop skulls, and a spooky atmosphere fills the room.
Using the skeleton, candle, and witch's leg dies from Craftoween Days 2, 7, and 12, I made a candlestick by placing a candle on top of the skeleton's head.
I cut the moon out halfway and arranged three bats around it so they would be visible through the window frame.
月の背景の紙は半分にカットし、その周りには、窓枠から見えるようにこうもりを3匹貼りました。
Glue moonlit paper to the back of the background, and arrange the window frame, curtains, and candlesticks.
月明かりを表現した紙を背景の裏側に貼り付け、窓枠、カーテン、燭台を配置します。
Fold the 1-inch and 0.5-inch strips of paper according to the dimensions shown in the photo below, then glue the ends together to make two large and two small paper tubes.
I think the next post on the “Classic Mouse Costume Party” page will finally be the last one. I’m getting excited thinking, “I guess that’s the one left…” and I can’t wait to show it to you all .I'll do my best to finish the pop-up book by Halloween.
