Swan and Only Interactive Card

Hello!  Waffle Flower is just about ready for a new release, and I realized that I have several projects I made with December's Better Together Release that I haven't shared yet.

The Intertwined Swans Die make a huge impact on a card and not just because of their large size.  I made an A7 card, so that I could nestle a sentiment from the Swanderful Stamp Set in the heart created by the two swans.

The interactive hinge element on the swans allows you to open the card to reveal a beautiful pond scene and heartfelt sentiment inside. 
I created the pond scene by using the Wavy Borders Die as a stencil and blending Concord and 9th's Sprout and Parsley inks for the grass and Tidepool and Oceanside for the pond water and sky. 
I stenciled on some fish using the Pond Stencil and added a bunch of ink blended cattails, lilies, and lily pads from the Pond with Lily Pads Dies.  After the scene was finished I flicked on a bunch of water. 
When lift the card open, you see a sentiment from Better Together inside.  And as you can see in the photo, you adhere the swan flap to the back of the card base, 
I had so much fun creating this pond scene and putting this card together.  Though simple, the interactive element really makes the card a lot more fun. 
Thanks so much for stopping by!  Wishing you all the best in the new year!
