Hello Crafty Friends ♪
Today, I created a fun, interactive card full of personality using Spellbinders’ new July release, the Spectacular Christmas Collection. The animals in this collection feature layered dies that share dies across sets, so you can enjoy a variety of designs depending on how you combine them.
Since the animal figures are included in the “Spectacular Bear Etched Dies ” set, you should definitely get your hands on it.
Spellbinders の7月の新着、Spectacular Christmas Collection を使って個性あふれる楽しいインタラクティブなカードを作りました。このコレクションの動物たちはセット間でダイを共有できるため、組み合わせ次第で様々に楽しめるレイヤードダイです。大人気で、すでに売り切れ続出です。
動物たちのボディは、Spectacular Bear Etched Dies 含まれているのでSpectacular Bear Etched Diesはマストで持っていたほうがいいです。
Today, I’d like to introduce an interactive card that, when opened, features cute die-cut figures of penguins, reindeer, and Santa Claus that sway from side to side.
Decorated with ear muffs, Christmas glasses, and string lights—all brimming with Christmas spirit—these cards bring out the adorable charm of the penguin and reindeer. When you open the card, the figures pop up and sway gently, creating a truly delightful piece. For the Santa card, I used a mechanism that makes it pop up even higher.
Contrary to what the covers suggest, all of these cards offer a delightful surprise as the scenery suddenly shifts from a winter scene to summer. Inspired by the “Christmas in July” theme, I incorporated a summery atmosphere into the background.
今回私が、ご紹介するのは、ポップアップと同時にゆらゆらとスイングする、かわいいペンギンとトナカイ、サンタクロースのダイを使ったインタラクティブなカードです。
耳当てやクリスマスの眼鏡、電飾などクリスマスの雰囲気たっぷりのダイは、ペンギンとトナカイをとてもかわいらしく演出してくれます。カードを平くとポップアップし、ゆらゆらと揺れるとても楽しい作品になりました。サンタは、より高くポップアップする仕掛けを使いました。これらのカードはすべて、表紙とは裏腹に、冬のシーンから一気に夏へと景色が一遍するのも楽しさと驚きのあるカードです。Christmas In Julyをテーマに夏の雰囲気を背景に取り入れました。
First, for the penguin card, use the Make A Wish Arch Labels die to cut arch-shaped windows in the cover and card base.
For the background of the cover, I used a snow-embossed folder and a snowflake die.
I used the snowflake die from the Christmas Wreath add-ons . The “Merry Christmas” title die is from the Classic Mouse Holiday Wreath Etched Dies.

その背景には、雪のエンボスフォルダーと雪の結晶のダイを使いました。
Christmas Wreath add-ons から雪の結晶のダイを使いました。 タイトルのMerry Christmas のダイは、Classic Mouse Holiday Wreath Etched Dies を使いました。
For the reindeer card, I used several dies from the “Scallop Labels and Tag” set to create colorful windows. I decorated around the reindeer's antlers with the string lights die from the “Classic Mouse Holiday Wreath Etched Dies” set.
トナカイのカードは、Scallop Labels and Tag のダイをいくつか使ってカラフルな窓を作りました。トナカイの角の周りには、Classic Mouse Holiday Wreath Etched Dies の電飾のダイを飾りました。
For the cover of the Santa card, I used Make A Wish Arch Labels and die-cut them with a circle die to create a window. The Christmas decorations are from the Christmas Wreath add-ons.

When you open it, the glasses and earmuffs disappear, giving way to a refreshing summer scene of penguin swimming in a pool while holding a swim ring. The monstera plants and flowers in the background were created using the “Tropical Flair” die.
I die-cut foam sheets into the shapes of Monstera leaves and other leaves, made stamps out of them, and stamped them onto the background. By stamping them first, I created a level difference with the die-cut leaves, which adds depth.
For the background when I opened the reindeer card, I used the sunflower die from the Build Wreath Etched Dies.
The mechanism that makes the penguin’s face rotate when you open the card forms the base of the pop-up shown in the photo. Cut along the red lines, fold the champagne glass section in half, and glue the diagonal triangular pieces together. Then, glue them in place so that they overlap with the diagonal triangular pieces on the base.
I’m going to create a background to attach to the project.
I die-cut the arch from the “Make A Wish Arch Labels ” set halfway through, then die-cut the other side to create an oval shape. I tapped a postcard-sized rubber stamp (for eraser stamps) with Varsa Fine Clair Bali Blue ink and sprayed it with anhydrous alcohol. I placed it in the die-cutting machine, positioned the paper on top, and ran it through. This created a water-like background.
Die-cut a hole in the background base, thread the mechanism’s base through the hole from below, and apply glue to secure it. I then attached the penguin’s head to this, but since I wanted the body to swing, I first attached a swing hook with a hole in it to the body before attaching the penguin’s head.
I made sure not to attach the reindeer and Santa cards to the foam backing so that their heads and bodies would be connected and swing together.
Here is the template for the mechanism that makes the Santa card pop up high.

Stick the paper on the right as shown in the photo.
Stick them firmly in place with glue so that they are at 45 degrees from the center and form a 90-degree angle when the figure is standing upright.
Once you’ve attached Santa, trim off any parts that stick out.
I hope these cards will inspire you to start working on your next project. Thank you for stopping by today. Happy Crafting!
