365 Cards: Day 47

Pop-Up Card

I was expecting to be at this one for a while but it was suprisingly easy to make. I first cut 2 lines at right angles to the centre fold to create the structure for the pop-out section. I then covered this gap with DCWV paper on both sides of the card and added matching glittered stickers to the front. Plus I scalloped the edge using a round corner punch (told you I would be using that quite often now I know how to do it!)

On the inside I mounted the centre of a flower behind the petals using 3D foam. I added ribbon at the base to cover the back of the structure and then over this I laid the same paper as on the front of the card. Then I mounted the 2 layered flower on the structure which pops up when opened.

I think I will definitely be making more of these and when I have more time I would really like to try the style that Amy made, as it looks fab!
