We All Live in a Yellow Submarine

inspiration: Lawn Fawnatics #48 + Little Red Wagon #488 + ColourQ #31

The current Lawn Fawnatics challenge is a good one: create something based off a book, song or movie. I encourage you to check out the projects posted on the blog, they are incredibly clever and inspired! I went with something that had been on my mind ever since the You Are Sublime stamp set came out: to do a... yellow submarine! I decided to pair it with the Magic Picture changer die so that I could try out the new stuff as well. This is arguably one of the easiest interactive card dies Lawn Fawn has come out with so far. But there is an important detail to remember: the hidden image has to be stamped on the moving part. I'm sure it's mentioned somewhere online or in the Lawn Fawn videos, but I got lazy and just winged it and well... my yellow sub became the hidden image instead of the diver with the sentiment. Not a huge deal in this case, but noted for next time.

I used the Ruffled 3D embossing folder fpr the turquoise background to mimick waves and added torn Champagne glimmer paper at the bottom to ground my scene. I added a few fish and plants to make the card more interesting and colorful. I was initially unsure if I really needed the Magic Picture Changer Add-On dies, but I think they're going to be useful it getting a nicer finish on the overall project.

Because the song says "We all live in a yellow submarine," I wanted to incorporate faces in the sub's windows. I had the perfect selection of faces in the Be Hap-pea stamp set - a wide variety of faces and just the right size.

This is a fun one. I bet my niece will be loving this new type of interactive card (since she always ask when seeing a new card if it "does anything"!).

What a cool card! Loving the little scene you created. I think it looks just as good this way than having the diver be the hidden image. Thanks for joining us at Little Red Wagon.
