Springy cards

[Last Chance 54]

Talking about mechanical springs, not the season-- is there such a thing as teeny little springs that can be attached to cards to "animate" your flowers/people/what-have-you? Thanks- Suz

I use these: Amazon.com: action wobble springs

CTMH sells some that are smaller than the Action Wobble Springs. The CTMH ones are 3/4", I believe, which the others are more like 1 1/4", if I remember correctly. Or, you can make some of your own. I found 28 gauge wire to be nice and "boingy."

I saw these from Impression Obsession:

I make my own with light gauge wire. Make a coil and then pull the centre up a bit and you have your wobble spring.
