Crazy in Love Action Wobble Card | CraftyPaws

This Valentines card was inspired by the Beyonce song “Crazy in Love” and the silly heart-shaped bird with the spiraling eyes from the Carabelle Studio “3 Oiseaux” (3 Birds in French) stamp set that made me think of the all-encompassing crazy feeling of falling in love.

I Copic colored the bird with the following colors:
Beak and legs: Y19
Body: R14, G14 (that’s right a green!), and R27
I also flicked on some highlights to a lot of the darkly stamped feathers with a Uniball Signo White Gel Pen and coated the beak, claws and eyes with Glossy Accents for shine. I fussy cut out this bird with a Fiskars Spring Loaded Scissors and inked the edges with a Momento Tuxedo Black Marker for a finished look.

I wanted a Valentines themed background, but I didn’t want to distract from the crazy love-sick bird, so I used three of the stamps from the new-to-me Carabelle-Studio Follow Your Heart stamp set but did not add any color to them. Instead, I added some dimension and shine to parts of these background images using a Tsukineko VersaMarker and clear embossing powder for some heat embossing. I inked the edges of the card front with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Black Soot, and to add a bit of grunge while keeping it pretty CAS, I also watered down some black acrylic paint and splattered it on with a wet paint brush.

To emphasize that mad, unstable feeling of new love, I thought adding the bird to the card front with a DIY action wobble would be fun. For a finishing touch and to add a little sparkle, I also added red and black sequins in varying sizes to the background.

The following process video shows the start-to-finish creation of this card, including how to make a DIY action wobble mechanism HERE
