Amazing Cards with Hands That Move!

I love love love interactive cards so could not resist the new Tree Topper Dies from Concord and 9th but the pictures in this blog post do not show you why. You have to see the cards being opened to see the magic of the hand moving up and down to add a star or ornament on the tree. The best way to see that and all the cards I created with this amazing die set is to watch my new video here. Here is the first card I made: 

That hand moves up and down as the card is opened! I show how easy it is to do that when I created this card step by step in the video:

The perfect Grinch sentiment on the front is from a set by Gina Marie Designs. But the real magic happens when the card is opened:

That hand moves up and down with the love ornament! All the patterned paper on this card is from the Evergreen Season bundle from 49 and Market. I wondered what else the hand could hold as it moved up and down and created this birthday version:

I am adding some candles to the birthday cake! Note the fingernails even have red polish! Too fun! Of course I cannot capture the magic of the hands moving in still pictures. Too see that and all the cards, watch the video here.

I did film a mini reel showing that for Instagram and my Facebook page and so you can see that magical interactivity here:

I had great fun playing with the Concord & 9th Tree Topper Dies and hope my cards encourage you to give some of the ideas and products a try!
