We’re making explosion pop-up cards!!

On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.  

These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:

Isn't it cool?  And it's super easy to do.  It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!

These are so fun to make.  And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside.  What a surprise they'll enjoy!

  • Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card; easy but beautiful!

    Here's another pretty fun fold card with the Snowflake Wishes suite of products.  Marilyn made this beauty. 

    Sept Marilyn Snowflake Wishes Save

    It's a side fold card which is super easy to do!

    She used the Stitched Rectangle dies for her front layers, the Snowflake Splendor designer paper on the left and the Snowflake Wishes bundle for the stamps & die-cuts.   Note the pretty Glimmer snowflake!  Our Balmy Blue Glimmer paper is gorgeous! 

    She used Pacific Point ink on the greeting and the faint snowflakes in the background were done by stamping off a few times to get a lighter hue. 

    Measurements: 

    • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2", stitched rectangle die-cut is 3" X 4 1/4"
    • Whisper White inside 4" X 5 1/4", stitched rectangle die-cut is 2 5/8" X 4"
    • Snowflake Splendor DSP 2 1/2" X 4"
