Year of the "Snake" Magical A7 Card with Popscilesticks

Saturday, February 8, 2025

Hey friends! Thanks for stopping by my craft room today. I’m so excited to share some amazing new products from Popsiclesticks! I know this would usually be in my Fandom Friday video, but it’s been a wild week, and with Davina dropping so many of these fantastic products in her shop today, Saturday, it worked out perfectly! I’m using the House Pride and Crest Stamp and Die set, which includes a beautifully designed stamp set with different words and elements. Today, I’m making a larger card—about 5 x 6.5 inches—using the Admit One A7 layering dies, which I absolutely love. These dies are slightly smaller than a standard 5x7, making them a great addition to your collection if you want to layer with A2-sized dies. I’m also incorporating the alphabet die set for some extra die-cutting fun!

To start, I stamped the banner on yellow cardstock and added the word snake house's name along with the snake image using alcohol marker-friendly black ink on white cardstock. I colored the snake with cool grays to give it a silvery look rather than green, making it feel more like the house crest. I did a ton of die-cutting with the crest die, sentiments, and background layers, using black, green, and shimmery silver cardstock. For my background, I used green plaid paper from Echo Park’s Witches & Wizards collection. After assembling the crest with alternating green and silver stripes, I added some flourishes and a knight’s helmet piece for extra detail. The final touch was the die cut sentiment, "Year of the" and adding the banner and snake with foam adhesive for dimension. I had so much fun making this card, and I hope it inspires you!
