For the new Festive Friday Challenge I have created this laughing Emoji Aperture Card.

This challenge #FF0082, is celebrating World Laughter Day that is coming up on May 3rd. It is lovely to have something jolly to look forward, to lets all smile. In order to take part in the challenge, you just need to choose at least 3 things from our Inspo list.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project in our card making and paper crafting challenge.  Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up! And guess what? Your project doesn’t have to be about the theme at all!  The selected festivity is just a unique way to come up with a fun and interesting inspiration list! 

My project used: emoji, yellow, red, aperture card, buttons.

My Project

This bright red and yellow laughing emoji aperture card was created for the Festive Friday Challenge.
The laughing emoji on this aperture card has been created by trimming circles cut using layering dies from stampin' Up

This tent fold style card has a circular aperture in the front with the laughing emoji beaming out through it. The mouth is a die cut circle trimmed down and the same circle die was used for the trimmed down Basic White piece.

The eyes were created by trimming the opposite corners from a square of Basic Black card. My Blending Brushes are probably my most frequently used tool and for this card they added a red blush to the edges of the face.

The gorgeous red paper with pink hearts is from the Snail Mail DSP collection. The buttons come from the All Dressed Up Dies and of course the letters are from the Playful Alphabet dies.

To finish I added some of the striped black and white twine from the Playful Pets Trim Combo. I was delighted to see this is carrying over to the new catalogue. There will be lots of twine to play with. If you are living in the UK and would like one of the new catalogues, make sure to request one.
