Magic Card


Say Abracadabra---
......almost there!...

TA-DA!!
 
My recent obsession with paper crafts and card making actually made me replicate this card from the tutorial posted on Extreme Cards and Papercrafting who got their idea from Splitcoaststampers. Mine was a little different as I planned to make a simple black and white card and then with magic I wanted to colour to appear! I do not have a stamping kit so I just printed out the image, kept a transparency sheet on it and drew the outlines with a permanent marker. The rest of it is pretty much the same. Instead of attaching the thread on top I put a broad piece of paper which can be held and pulled out (its easier to put the card back in).

I made this card for my cousin who was down with Dengue recently and is recovering.. I loved how it drops the cliched idea of the "Get Well Soon" and says "You Cured Yet?"
Along with that, at the back I added the line "This card is going to work like magic-- Get well soon"
