Pop Up Gift Card

Over at Project Tuesday we were asked to make a Pop Up gift card. Rather easy and I have seen it done on SCS and other blogs but never attempted it.
You can actually get three gift cards out of one piece of 12 x 12 because the base is cut at 12 x 4"



I added a 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 cover and backing run through my Cuttlebug Fleur de lis embossing folder. Inked with my ColorBox Cat Eyes ink set.

The top accents are a Sizzix swirl/flourish die that I covered in glitter - yes got to have a little bling.
Then for the sentiment - I used the Cuttlebug 4 You postage stamp set. Inked and glittered as well.

Here is what the inside looks like.

Die Cuts R Us - pop up card

Here is a close up view. I added a hang tag for the double sided sentiment.

Over at Die Cuts R Us Tuesday Challenge/Pop Up Cards

I have never made one - always wanted to, so here was my chance.

I actually did two pop ups in one view.

Since I was at it - I made three of the same cards. (two are shown)

here is the cover of the card

Pop Up Thank You card

Pop Up Card using the tutorial at Slipcoast Stampers and also a reminder of this technique from last nights blog hop.

Here is a Thank you Card I made - also from scraps in my pile. Love using my scraps! (boy do I have them)

Stars from Indie Art cricut cartridge, Butterflies from Martha Stewart punch - run through the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder. Sentiment from Stampin' Up. Stitched paper from Provo Craft.

More pop-up/spring up cards

I enjoyed making the pop-up spring-up cards in the previous post, I thought I would make these for Kristen and her friends (Lauren/Kristen/Jennie/Marie) that are also in college. (Hope to mail them today)

Directions are in the previous post.
I used the Cuddle Bug embossing folders for the accents and some Martha Stewart ribbon on the orange/blue swirl cards. I struggled with putting a sentiment on the cover - as I thought it would have made it too crowded. Instead I wrote in the back.here is a close up of a couple of them.
