I found a secret message technique on the internet the other day and I thought I would try it out with a 3 1/2 x 8″ Thank You card. I’m waiting on my new goodies from the upcoming Idea Book to arrive mid-week, so until then, I decided to revisit my Dakota paper pack. I based the front of the card on this week’s Mojo Monday sketch #275, but where the sketch calls for a horizontal layer, I created a removable band to help keep the card closed before revealing it’s secrets. 😉
Here’s a few pictures of the inside…the secret message. Pictures alone don’t really do it justice in how it moves. It’s rather quite cool. It creates a kind of illusion when you open the two panels to reveal the center one and even cooler when you pull the ends apart.
