Waterfall Card with Kindest Gnomes

Image shows handmade waterfall card with Kindest Gnomes bundle

I love this waterfall card with Kindest Gnomes. Waterfall cards are such fun to play with and the gnomes are so cute. The Kindest Gnomes bundle is in the July – December mini catalog and has a wintry feel to the images so it makes a perfect Christmas card. However, gnomes stay around all year so this month I will be featuring projects with the gnomes in all four seasons.

In fact, my August Bundle of the Month is the Kindest Gnomes bundle (159626). Purchase this bundle from me during August and I’ll send you a free bundle of 5 tutorials for projects you can make with this bundle.

There a variety of waterfall cards as the technique has been around for years. Most of the cards have the same-sized pieces for the waterfall so that you see a part of the layers lying underneath the top one. I like this style because the subsequent layers are hidden and a surprise as they flip up. The products I used for this card along with cutting dimensions are below. When you have your pieces cut, follow along with me in the video I made during my Facebook Live today.

Over the Moon Peekaboo Slider Card

Closed Over the Moon Peekaboo Slider Card created with Over the Moon stamp set

I had such fun making this darling Over the Moon Peekaboo Slider Card! It is my sort-of CASE of Cindy Brumbaugh”s Peekaboo Slider Card using the Over the Moon stamp set (149331) found on page 32 in the new 2018-2020 Annual Catalog. I followed her video with a few variations. Since I don’t have the retired Hardwood background stamp any longer I used the Pinewood Planks embossing folder for the walls of the barn. I also decided to have a square window instead of a round one.

These silly cows in the Over the Moon stamp set make me smile. I will be using them often. Just look at the cute sayings that come with the set!

While the front of this peekaboo slider card is darling, but the real surprise is when you open the card! Look at what appears.

The image of the cow in the window disappears and the greeting slides into the window. This is so cool!

This card style has been used to create a wide variety of cards and is such fun. It looks complicated but once you have done it, making more cards like it is a piece of cake. I am going to make a series of posts using this style card so check back often.
