Pop-Up Card

The Fancy Fold Design Team is back for another blog hop! Our last blog hop was back in December, the Bay Window card which you can check out here. So I’m glad to be back at it again. This month we’re making a Pop-Up card. It’s such a cute card and as usual not that difficult to make. Here’s a video by Jolan a Dutch demonstrator. The video is in Dutch but captions are in English.

When I saw this card I had a couple of different ideas pop in my head. Butterflies was of course one of them, lol. In the end I decided to use flowers. And in this case the Dahlia Days stamp set and coordinating dies. I love this set! It’s so pretty and I love the phrases too.

For the colours I let the Designer Series Paper help me with that. I wanted to use the Friendly Hello DSP from the Sale-a-bration catalogue and decided to use a design I haven’t used yet. This one is with Fresh Freesia. I love purples and this one is such a nice shade! So for my cardbase and ink I used Fresh Freesia. I also threw in a bit of Granny Apple Green and a different design from that DSP pack. I’m going to miss this patterned paper and stamp set!

For the inside of my cards I usually I like to leave a fairly big space to write a note or something, but I just love this stamp and how easy it is to cut out with the die that I had to use that instead. I also popped up the large dahlia with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals to help it pop up through the hole. And to finish it off I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels. I do love my bling!
