Soccer Birthday Little Panel Twist Pop Up

Hi Crafty Friends,
I made this for a friend's brother who is turning 60 in September. He is a huge fan of the Bolton Wanderers, a London Futbol Club. I colored the Lili of the Valley Super Striker Stamp to match the team's uniforms. I created an interactive card using Karen Burniston's Little Twist Panel PopUp Dies, check it out on my Instagram @MadeByMeghanK.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Are you a soccer/futbol fan? What team?
A: Me? No, because it's not big here in the USA but I wish it was

Warmest Wishes Cocoa Penguin

Hi Crafty Friends,
This festive tag is full of cozy Christmas charm with the sweet Poppy Stamps Coffee Penguin, Poppy Stamps Nordic Cocoa Cup and warm “Warmest Wishes” sentiment. I love the classic red, kraft, and white combo featured on the Poppy Stamps Scalloped Framer Tag Dies and twine bow for a simple handmade holiday look.

I started my tag by creating the penguins out of black and white card stock then making the little coffee cups with kraft and white. I put one of the coffee cups in the penguin's hand.

Next, I mounted the penguin on the tag with the nordic cocoa mug so that this tag is full of coffee and cocoa.

I finished my tag with the Poppy Stamps Merry Christmas Fluffy Script Die and a piece of twine for a bow on top.
