Creating a Pop Up Card

This project, creating a Pop Up card is another from the Blog Coop. This time Dawn DuVal is the creator of the Party Puffins Pop Up Card.

I don’t know about you, but I love a fun fold card and that’s exactly what I must share with you today!

Instructions

Stamp Puffins and cake on Basic White Cardstock using Memento Black ink. Colour using your Stampin’ Blends.
Using your paper snips “fussy” cut each of the above items and set aside.
Adhere your four pieces of DSP to card insert piece (measuring 5 1/4″ x 8 1/4″ – 20.5cm x 14.4cm) at top and bottom. Showing both sides of DSP
Fold the Basic White card and burnish with bone folder.
Lay out the images you will be using (the three Puffins & cake) and measure where you will want to place them. Measure with a ruler and draw lines for the depth you want. For this card, I used a 3/4″ (2cm)depth for the first cut, then a 1-1/4″ (3cm) depth and finally and 1/2″ depth (1cm). As you play with making these cards, you will figure out where you want to place them. (see picture)

Using Paper Snips or Paper Trimmer cut on your pop out lines towards inside of card. Give a good burnish on both sides using your Bone Folder.
Fold “pop out” towards inside of card and burnish.
Lay folded piece on your base cardstock just below the score line. Add your adhesive and close the cardstock to adhere the glue by rubbing with hand.
Flip card over and do the same as above.
Place Puffins onto each pop-out piece using adhesive.
Adhere the 3 ¾ X 5 DSP to the Blackberry Bliss CS and then adhere these to the front of your card.
Stamp the Birthday and Make A Wish sentiments using Flirty Flamingo ink on your Basic White CS and adhere them to the Flirty Flamingo pieces. Add to front of card using your adhesive.
Run your smallest and next to smallest circles through the Emboss & Cut Machine. Small circle on Basic White, next size on Blackberry Bliss.
Stamp sentiment in Blackberry Bliss on the above Basic White and attach to the Blackberry Bliss. Add to inside bottom of card.
Add three Festive Pearls to the inside sentiment.

I hope Dawn’s card has inspired you to have a go at some pop-up cards.
