Una de las primeras personas que “conocí” en la blogosfera es Gemma del blog Guardiana de Momentos. Es una chica con un gran corazón, mucho arte (scrapeando y bailando) y mucho sentido del humor. El día 2 de septiembre estuvo de cumple y le mandé un paquetito con algo de retraso… La tarjeta que acompañaba el regalo es esta:

A primera vista parece muy sosa, verdad? Se pasa de “clean and simple” je je… Esperad, hay que tirar de la solapa para ver la “magia”…
At first glance it looks quite dull, doesn’t it? Too clean and simple, ha ha… Wait, you have to pull the tab to see the “magic” happen…

Aquí tenéis unas pocas fotos del funcionamiento…
Here are a couple of pictures of how it works…
Al tirar de la solapa, vamos desvelando poco a poco el color…
When you pull the tab, the colour underneath is revealed, little by little…
… y voilá! Como por arte de magia la tarjeta se ha llenado de color.

Había visto este tipo de tarjetas antes, pero la que me enamoró fue la tarjeta ganadora del reto de agosto de Mama Elephant:

Verdad que es una maravilla?! Su creadora se llama Anna Kossakovskaya y es una auténtica artista! Su blog Umichka es una delicia…lo malo es que el 99% está en ruso! Estudié tres años de ruso en el insti en Finlandia, pero no me entero de nada y los traductores online son bastante malos, así que disfruto de las fotos (impecables) de sus creaciones…
Isn’t it wonderful?! Its creator, Anna Kossakovskaya, is a true artist! Her blog Umichka is a real treat… the only bad news is that 99% of it is in Russian! I studied three years of Russian back in high school in Finland, but I can’t understand anything and the online translators are quite bad, so I just enjoy the perfect pictures of her creations…

Lo más difícil no fue averiguar el mecanismo de la tarjeta -como dijo mi hija Iris de casi ocho años: “Bah, eso está chupado! Es una cartulina blanca tapando el dibujo coloreado”- sino estampar sobre el acetato… al quinto o sexto intento me salió medianamente bien.
The most difficult thing wasn’t to figure out the mechanism of the card – as my soon 8-year-old daughter burst out: “Piece of cake! It’s a white piece of cardstock covering the coloured picture” – but stamping on the acetate… after five tries, it finally turned out OK.

El marco lo hice estampando un sello de textura de madera de Heidi Swapp encima de cartulina kraft con tinta memento “Rich cocoa”. Una vez troquelado el marco, lo entinté con tinta Distress “Gathered twigs”.
I created the frame stamping a Heidi Swapp wood texture stamp on kraft cardstock with “Rich cocoa” Memento ink. Once I die-cut the frame, I inked it with “Gathered twigs” Distress ink.

Para la plaquita estampé un sello de Simon Says Stamp sobre una tira de cartulina kraft y creé unas pegatinas-tornillo con unos circulitos embossados en oro a los que les hice unas muescas rascando con un alfiler… dan bastante el pego, jejeje…
For the plate, I stamped a small Simon Says Stamp sentiment on a strip of kraft cardstock and created a couple of sticker screws with gold embossed circles (I made the grooves scraping with a needle point)… they look quite realistic, don’t they?

A Gemma parece que le gustó mucho la tarjeta y yo disfruté un montón haciéndosela ^_^ Por cierto, los gnomos son de un set de sellos llamado “You gnome me” de Mft stamps y los descubrí gracias a Anna del blog Full d’ Scrap.
It seems like Gemma liked the card a lot and I enjoyed making it for her ^_^ By the way, the gnomes are from a set called “You gnome me” by MFT stamps and I discovered them thanks to Anna from the blog Full d’ Scrap.
