Pop-up card


I forget where I saw this kind of a card - I think it was either Lawn fawn blog or Jennifer McGuire's blog. I really liked the idea and the fact that I could make it without any additional dies etc. Oh yes now I remember it was the Lawn Fawn blog and they did use dies for it. However, with the die the complete card size is very small. Moreover with some calculations and a circle die (I used nestability die) it was fairly easy to make it.

For the base I used a 4" X 8.5" cardstock. Scored it in half along the long side - at 4.25".
For the pop-up panel, I used a 4" X 4.5" cardstock. Scored it along the long side at - 0.25", 2.25" and 4.25". Cut a circle in the center of this panel. Create your scene as you would like to. If you need to align the scenery on the base panel with this pop-up panel, like I did, then you need to stamp on the pop-up panel as well when you're stamping on the base panel. To attach the pop-up panel, lay it flat on the base panel - aligned at the center. Then using double sided tape adhere down the 0.25" border scored on both the sides.

Here's how the front looks:

Supplies: Lawn Fawn "Life is good" stamp set, distress inks, copic markers, nestability circle dies
