Interactive Element with an Action Wobble + Simon’s United We Craft Blog Party!
Just because we’re all home right now doesn’t mean we can’t get together virtually and craft! As part of their #SSSUnitedWeCraft movement, Simon Says Stamp thought it would be really awesome to gather together over 100 different designers and have a blog party! Everyone is crafting some awesome projects using Simon brand products and today I am featuring the April 2020 Card Kit, Follow the Rainbow!
I had such a great time creating with this kit (click here to see the card I shared recently using the kit), that I just had to make a second card. This time I decided to add an interactive element to the umbrella by adhering it with an action wobble!
When you tap the umbrella, it wobbles; I love the cute effect this gives the finished card!
Be sure to watch the video at the top of this post to see how I put this card together!

One of the most special parts of this blog party is that Simon is encouraging us to share behind the scenes at how it is to craft at home! If you don’t know already, I have four cats; Allie and Maddie, the two girls just turned 1 a couple days ago and the boys, Oscar and Thomas will be 1 at the end of May.
My studio is one of their favorite places to hang out in the house. Every time I am in there they are too! They are far from helpers and often create messes on top of the mess I make when I’m crafting but I wouldn’t have it any other way! Here’s a peek at my fur babies hanging out in my studio…

Very sweet card Nina! I love this idea!
Thanks for sharing with us your talent!
OMG! Your White and Orange tabby looks just like my 8 year old Milton! They could be litter mates! Adorable! Nice to know other cats like to craft, too. You can never have too many helpers! :D
I completely agree!!! Love our little fur babies!!!
Love your cards and your kitties! Thank you for the “spark of joy today”!
Crafty cat lovers unite! Many thanks to you and Simon Says Stamp for inspiring me as we stay in and flatten the curve. ????????
Thank you so much for sharing your fur babies with us. I have two cats as well who like to “help” me when I craft. So cute!
awww! I love that!!!
I loved seeing your fur babies! They made me giggle chasing each other. Love watching your videos!!!
LOL! They make ME giggle too every single day!!!
I love your card. So sweet! Also love the behind the scenes photos and video. Your lamps are lovely. Where did you get them?
Hi Kathy! I got those lamps and the shades at Ikea!
What sweet fur babies! Neat idea with the card too.
Great card! I absolutely love the pics of your cats! They are adorable!
Great card idea, Nina!
Clever idea to put the umbrella on a wobble! I also love your little helpers, even if they make an occasional mess. They are simply putting their signature on your cards.
Blessings to you!
While I love your card, I love your kitties too! I only have one, and I applaud you for caring for four! What a comfort!!!
Cool card Nina Maria!!!!! TFS!
