I was taking part in a craft and chat evening along with some fellow
demonstrators from our team last Monday evening and our challenge was to
make a wiper card. This is a card technique I have never undertaken
before. A
Wiper Card is a form of pop-up card with a swinging tag that pops out
when the ends are pulled. You can use the tag to hold a sentiment or an
image like I have done. 

 It is quite an impressive card fold/technique and although looks
complicated, once you have the correct mechanism and placed in the
right place it is a great project. There are quite a few tutorials on You Tube with the instructions

 When the card is closed, there is only one dragonfly visible

When the card is pulled outwards, another dragonfly appears to be flying as if by magic from behind!

I used the Dragonfly
Garden stamp set and matching punch from the new Mini catalogue and flowers for every season
DSP  to complete the card, I have left the sentiment free to add at a
later date.

I enjoyed creating this card so much I made another one using the adorable ‘Darling Donkeys’ which I will share with you over the next couple of days.
