Valentine Duck

Hello crafty friends, Cathy here today posting for KaDoodle Bug Designs.

Today I have a pop up card I made using the new file~ Cutie KaToodles Valentine Duck

I just love this little Cutie!!

I started out by cutting out the lil duck and put her together and inked her up/ I used Close to My Heart cardstock and ranger inks.

Then I cut out the base for the card at 6 by 9 and scored it in half lengthwise.

I then cut out the inside layer for the pop up part at 5 and 3/4 by 8 and 3/4, scored it in half and then cut 2 one in slits to use as the pop up part. I pushed that part out in the opposite direction and glued the two sides to the inside of the yellow card base, using Helmar Craft Glue...

Once the inside is done, I matted up the inside of the card using some die cuts from my Cricut..hearts and such,  Decorated with some SU twine and a Valentine sentiment from CTMH as well as their bling......

Then I added the KaToodles cutie on the inside...

Well there you have it, another adorable file from KaDoodle Bug Designs.Have a wonderful week,

Happy Crafting

First I used my Cricut Explore and cut out the svg image of Winnie and Tigger and inked the edges and then assembled the pieces using Helmar Premium Craft Glue

After all the pieces are assembled and inked, I took the  Helmar Craft Hobby PVA Glue and glued the background papers to the chipboard photo frame backing...

The printed background papers I placed at the top and bottom frame section.  I then used a photo safe glue by Helmar, and glued on the picture of Eli I had... (he is such a cutie,,,)

I then decided to add a little ric rac ribbon to frame the picture of Eli and so grabbed my go to Fabric adhesive...Helmar Fabric Glue..

It dries quickly, clearly and strong..

And now tahdah... the finished product..I hope my son likes...
