I have some silly cards for you today that I had a lot of fun creating.
My great nephew Caleb is turning 3 next week. When I was pondering a design for his card I decided I wanted to make a card with a little movement. I think "interactive" cards are really neat for little kids (and big kids too!) so I decided to play with some of my Black Friday" finds.
Here is what happens when you lift the flap...
The pajamas don't miraculously change color when you lift the flap! LOL but when I finished Caleb's card I liked it so much I made two more cards for two other youngsters on my birthday card list.
For the flap closure I used a real super fine Velcro tape. I have not been able to find a link to the exact 3M tape I used but HERE is one that looks like it is the same. It is a really nice product because it is thin and has a very light hold - perfect for use on cards!!
My design was inspired by the AAA Cards challenge game #156 found HERE. I hope you will join me in the gallery - but you better hurry this one ends soon!!!
That is it for me today. Have a wonderful weekend!!
BIG (((hugs)))
Supplies:

Awe! Your cards are so adorable Patti! Love the lifting flap with the fun sentiment idea along with your colorful jumper!! What a fun interactive card to give to a toddler! He'll love it! HUGS
Such a super fun card design, Patti! I agree about interactive cards - they are a lot of fun! I hope to try something like this at some point - I'm not very adventurous but I tried a few new folds last year so maybe now it's time for some interactive cards! Love the 3 colourways! have a great weekend!
Such fun cards and I can see why you wanted to make a couple more. You brought a happy smile to my face ....thank you x. Such creative, cute and fun cards Patti x.
I was seriously examining your card to figure out how those PJs changed colors LOL!! This is adorable and Caleb will love it!
I am loving those polka-dotted PJ'S Patti! I don't make interactive cards very much at all but you have definitely piqued my interest with these! Well done!
That is such a fun card and sentiment. Perfect for little hands.
Oh what a fabulous idea! Thanks for playing at AAA Cards, hope to see you join in with future challenges too.
Here I was, pondering 'how did she make those pjs change color?' I hadn't quite scrolled far enough, HA!!!
I couldn't love these more, Patti … what a wonderful growing older sentiment stamp!
