Bovine Jump One

The idea for this card came from Simon Says J is for ... and Artful Times is having a Kinetic Challenge. The cow jumps over the moon thanks to a strip of plastic packaging that pivots under the moon (in the photo the end is under the moon on the lower left, what looks like a fold in the card).

The images are from the Hey Diddle Diddle Imagine cartridge. The cow is attached to the plastic strip with a piece of Score Tape and then pieced in the middle and attached to the bottom layer with a brad. The moon has two foam dots at 3 and 9 o''clock to support the moon while allowing some motion by sliding the bottom of the plastic with a finger. Foam Tape supports the second layer of sky. The images are printed on Papertrey Ink Stamper's Select White cardstock and the card base is PTI Blueberry Sky.

This certainly made me smile - such a happy moon. Well done you for having a go at what could prove to be a difficult challenge for most. Thanks for joining us at Artful Times.
Hugs, Neet xx
