The Spellbinders Musical Notes & Stave Pop-Up (S5-687) is the interactive centerpiece of Bibi’s Musical Notes Collection by designer Bibi Cameron. This 8-piece etched die set allows you to create a 3D surprise inside your cards: a spiral mechanism that lifts a musical staff and notes toward the recipient as the card opens. It’s perfect for music teachers, students, or anyone who believes life is better with a soundtrack.
Key Features:
Spiral Pop-Up Mechanism: The smart feature of this set is the spiral die. By adhering the center to one side of the card’s interior and the outer tail to the other, you create a spring-like action that makes your musical elements dance.
Wavy Musical Staff: Includes a long, elegant stave die that mimics the movement of a melody. It’s designed to be attached to the spiral or used as a flowing border on the card front.
Notation Variety: The set comes with a full symphony of musical symbols:
Notes: Treble clef, eighth notes (single, double, and triple joined), and quarter notes.
Accidentals: A "sharp" symbol to add technical accuracy to your designs.
Scene-Building Synergy: This set is designed to work seamlessly with the Mini Musical Instruments set. You can attach the tiny violins, trumpets, or microphones to the spiral so they pop out alongside the music.
Universal Machine Compatibility: Works with leading manual die-cutting machines.
Pro Tip: When assembling the spiral, use a strong red-line adhesive or a glue dot at the contact points to ensure the mechanism stays secure through hundreds of performances.
