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.

  • Right Behind You; so cute!


    I chose the Right Behind You stamp set for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month.  Here's my card:

    This set is adorable!  And it has such fun greetings to go with the tandem bicycle as well. Click here to see it. 

    Details:

    • I used the 'ground' image to create grass by stamping it numerous times.
    • I used the Basic Border dies seen here to sponge the clouds.  Get my tips on this in the video below or click here. 
    • I used a mask to add the puppy in the basket. 
    • The greeting die-cut is from the Messages die. 
    • I used Stampin' Blends to color in the images.
    • I added a Metallic pearl to the spokes in the bicycle. 
    • The sun is simply sponged in the corner with Daffodil Delight ink. 

    As you can see it's an easy fun fold card.  Simply add one extra score line to your normal A2 card.  Score the 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" Crushed Curry card at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".  The Basic Gray is 3 7/8" X 5 1/8" and the White is 3 3/4" X 5".

    I added grass and flowers to the inside to pull it all together.  

    Click on the video below to watch me make this card; it's the first project on this FB Live replay.  *You can also see how I made the Pinwheel Tower cards in the photo below.

  • Pinwheel Tower fun fold cards are easy but a sure WOW!


    I shared this super fun card on Tuesday's FB Live video.  The video is shown below.  Or click here to watch on my FB page.  Don't forget to follow me so you are notified when I go live. 

    I used the Sweet Symmetry designer paper and the In  Symmetry stamp set.  Colors are Night of Navy, Just Jade, Calypso Coral, Bumblebee and Flirty Flamingo.  I also used Holiday rhinestones for the bling. 

    This has to be one of the easiest fun fold cards I've made that's also totally unique. And it uses an exact 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" piece of card stock. On each panel you can add a perfect layer (2 1/2" X 4") or have fun adding various pieces of CS or DSP and greetings or stamped images.  

    Here are the measurements for you:

  • Daisy Garden with Picture This dies


    Yesterday I shared a card featuring the Daisy Garden stamp set and today it's a totally different type of card.  

    The colors are Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  The daisy stamp peeks out from behind the window die cut circles made with the Picture This dies on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Black CS.  Can you see the stitches?

    These dies include both a large set of circles and another with three rectangles.  You can use the windows like shown above or the die cut circles or rectangles which I used here for the greeting.  

    Check out the Picture This dies here. 

    And here is another way to use these dies; with Designer Paper behind the window.  It's the gorgeous Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper seen here; it was unavailable for almost a month.  And it was in stock for a week but it's unavailable again now until early August.  It's so popular!
