This fun kinetic card can be made with the pieces in your LMC Issue 35 kit.

If you really want your makes to stand out then incorporating moving features like springs, slider mechanisms and pop-ups is definitely a way of gaining attention. This project by Caroline Blanchard is full of techniques for you to get the hang of, and once you've mastered them, they can be rolled out in all your cards, whatever the occasion!

With Love

1. Cut a pink blank to a height of 13.5cm. Add clear acetate from the kit packaging behind a striped frame. On purple card, 8.5cm x 11.5cm, glue snowflakes and sequins and carefully pour loose sequins on top.

2. Secure 3-D foam all around the back of the frame, adding enough layers to allow movement underneath. Fix the frame onto the purple card, encasing the loose sequins inside then stick to the blank. To finish, add a purple reindeer and a ‘With Love’ chipboard message.
