Pop-Up Cards!!
Hello friends!! For this week’s Demo, I wanted to share some ideas with you for creating the “pop-up” effect in your card making!! It is SO EASY to create this effect!! Watch the Video Tutorial here:
I LOVE creating fun, interactive cards and I wanted to show you how EASY it is to make a quick pop up card!! I learned this idea from my friend, Llew and when I saw how it was done I couldn’t wait to make some of my own creations!
Fold your card in half, then use scissors to cut into the paper (from the fold side) to create little tabs that will POP-OUT when you open the card!!
They almost look like little stairs!!
What I love about this concept is how easy it is but also how VERSATILE it is!!
Check out this idea using the “Tell the Bees” Stamp Set to create a fun scene of bees and a little bee hive!!
Or check out this idea making a pop-up RAINBOW card!!!
I used Nesting Circle die-cuts to create the half-circles as well as these evergreen tree die cuts, this whittle cloud die cut, and my favorite Cloud Stencil!! I LOVE how fun and vibrant this rainbow is!!
I had SO MUCH FUN with this last idea!! If you know me, you know I LOVE miniatures!!! For this pop-up card idea I decided to make a mini pop-up desk!! I used this Virtual Friends stamp set from Lawn Fawn and I even used some of their little plants to make the scene more “home-y”
Of course, my favorite part is the little add-ons like the little pencil and the pad of paper!! SO FUN!!
This Pop-Up card concept is SO FUN and I hope you feel inspired too!! There are lots of different things you can create with the “stair” style pop-up card!!
Stop by to see these ideas in person!!
See you soon, friends!!
