Today I’m excited to show you Wiper Cards. This was a new card technique for me, and I had a lot of fun trying it out. I can’t wait to make another one! These cards are called Wiper Cards because they have a moving element that resembles a windshield wiper…kind of.
This is the card open.
This is the card folded up tp go in the envelope.
I combined the Beary Cute Bundle with the Merriest Trees Bundle to create my card. I love the result. The bear is so cute, and the trees make a lovely background. My card base is Pretty Peacock & I matched the Balmy Blue DSP with Cherry Cobbler DSP to add some contrast.
Measurements:
Card Base 8 ½” x 4 ¼” Score at 1 ½” & 3”
Bridge 8 ½” x 2 ¼” – The bridge can vary in width depending on your pop-up image. Score at 1 ½” & 3”
DSP Side panel 4” x 1 ¼”
DSP Two bridge pieces 2” x 1 ¼” One bridge piece 2” x 3 ¾”
Inside DSP 5 ¼” x 4”
Basic White back piece for message 5 ¼ x 4”
Scrap for bridge sentiment – sized according to your sentiment.
Window Sheet 2? X ½”

The Stamping Diversity Team aims to share our paper creations and educate you about different cultures and traditions. For our first hop, we chose to focus on Hanukkah and its eight gifts. I did some research online and learned that giving gifts for Hanukkah is a relatively new practice. Some sources say it started as a way to make Jewish children feel less left out during Christmas, while others say it was a way to spread joy and happiness.
In the past, Jewish children received gelt, which is money or chocolate coins, to give to their teachers or to charity. The idea was to teach them the value of money and the importance of doing good deeds. Nowadays, parents use these gifts as a way to celebrate and have fun.
I made four small gift holders that can hold various items, such as money, gift cards, or candy. I hope these inspire you to create your own gift presentations.
