A simple trick makes this Floating Pop-Up card work; with measurements & video!


This special fancy fold card is super unique and makes you wonder just how it's sort of floating!  You will be shocked at what it takes to make it work.  

I used the Crane of Fortune bundle to create this card. The colors are so soft & pretty – Gray Granite, Calypso Coral, White & Early Espresso. 

The front panel flips up as you open the card and it even wobbles a bit.  You can see how it works in the video, or scroll down to the next photo.  

I stamped the main image on a die-cut from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. They are on the retiring list; so if you don't have them yet you know what you need to do! 

The Good Fortune dies include the pretty leaves I used to hold my card open. When doing this be sure to add Dimensionals under the image to support the card open.  

You need two little pieces of card stock under the front layers to make the pop-up work.  Mine are 1/2" X 2 1/2" but size really does not matter here.  Just fold them in half and secure one side to the card base and the other to the top layer. Do this on each side of the front panel. Again, please watch the video here to see how it works.

  • Wow! Check out this fabulous fun fold that’s actually easy! Video & free project sheet too


    I'm super excited to share this neat fancy fold card with you today.  I made it on a recent video which I've added towards the bottom of this post.  

    I chose to use the beautiful Botanical Textures DSP seen here with Petunia Pop, Black & White.

    It starts out with a 11" X 4 1/4" piece of card stock that you score three times.  Then you add a 'bridge or brace' in the center that does the fun pop-up work.  Watch the video to see how it's done. And check out the free project sheet below too.  

    I stamped the greeting with the Linked Together stamp set and the leaves with the Textured Notes stamp set. The greeting die-cuts are from the Stylish Shapes and Spotlight on Nature dies. 

    It folds perfectly flat for mailing too!  

    I hope you'll watch the video below to see how to assemble this neat card. It's super fun to play with.

  • Double Easel fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this neat fun fold on last week's Live video.  I record them on Facebook Live then upload to YouTube so you can view them either place. 

    My color combination is Summer Splash with Black & White.  The new Botanical Textures DSP inspired this fun fold card. 
    I love how the three butterflies die-cut is placed on 3 Black circles; they would have been lost if placed directly on the DSP. 
    We made this project at last week's Team gathering.  They loved it! 
     
    Products used:
    • Botanical Textures DSP seen here
    • Sketched Butterfly bundle
    • Beautiful Butterflies stamp set
    • Fancy Border dies (seen here)

  • Last of the Clean & Simple Team swaps!


    Today I'm sharing the last of the March Team swaps with the Clean & Simple theme.  No designer paper!

    Lori created with pretty card with the Linked Together bundle seen here. 

    This bundle has stamps, dies and masks which is how she created her background.  All using Bubble Bath ink! 

    I love her soft background and the die accents she added by the greeting.  Just gorgeous!  

    Next is a pretty card made by Tracey. She chose to use the You are Remarkable stamp set seen here.  

    She also stamped a soft background behind the flower using the Elements of Text set.  Her color include Daffodil Delight & Crumb Cake with a bit of green on the leaves.  

    I love how she stamped the inside; that bee is adorable. 

    And lastly is this beautiful all White card made by Jonna.  

    White on White is hard to photograph; I wish you could see how elegant it is in person!  

    She used the Seaside Wishes bundle along with a bunch of score lines on the left side. This little touch anchors the seashells wonderfully!  

    I hope you've enjoyed seeing my talented team swaps this month!
