Challenge Card

 

Today I am showing you a cute pop up card. This one was quite a bit of work but it was lovely to make.

The front was made from inspiration on Pinterest. I made that curvy edge on top with the help of a die that you use to make shadow boxes. I didn't have an edge like this so it turned out great. The top was a bit bulky with all those layers and the many pine leaf cutout so I used some gold shiny ribbon to cover that up and it looked so much nicer after that. The sentiment die is from Marianne Design.

When you open the card up these nice looking christmas trees pop up. The trees have been put on a strip of acetate to make sure they stay up whten the card is opened. I have not decided what I will be adding for text on the inside but I will do that later. 

I will enter this card in the following challenges:
Christmas Kickstart #95 - Fold It Fancy
ABC Christmas Challenge - D is for Die Cuts
A Cut Above - Anything Goes using a Die Cut

I hope you like it as much as I do

Till next time

  1. This is stunning! The green/gold combination is very elegant. The die cut pine branches and sentiment look amazing. Great idea on the border die. Thanks for sharing at A Cut Above's "Anything Goes With A Die Cut" Challenge.

    1. It is gold shiny ribbon. I added it on top with some glue to hide all the layers.
