Butterfly Pop-Up Card


Tonight during my Tuesday Night Stampin' Club Facebook LIVE I made a fun fold card....a V-fold Pop Up Card!  A Demonstrator friend of mine posted a V-fold card this morning and I knew right when I saw it that I had to make one of these pop-up cards using the Butterfly Brillance Collection!

You can watch the replay below to see how I made the card and some tips on scoring with your bone folder and cutting your Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper.  Keep on reading for instructions and supplies used.

HOW TO MAKE A V-FOLD POP-UP CARD

  1. Start with a Basic White Card Base cut at 8" x 5-1/4"
  2. Score at 4" to fold the card in half.
  3. Mark 2" down from the top on the center score line.
  4. Use a ruler to line up the top corner and center mark 2" down and score with a bone folder.  Use a foam mat underneath to get a deep score line.
  5. Do the same from the other top corner to the center score line mark.
  6. Fold on the score lines to create a V that will fold into the card as shown below.
  7. Adhere an element to the right side of the center fold taking care that it will fit inside of the card.


I absolutely LOVE the Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper and it is only available until May 3 or while supplies last!  A circle punched out of the Natural Touch Specialty Paper really adds a nice organic feeling to the card.  That too is exclusive to the Butterfly Bouquet Promotion from now until May 3.




  Craft for a Cause!

Would you like to help with my next Crafting for a Cause initiative?  Your participation will help me in raising funds to plant wildflowers in The Woodland Walk at Raven Glen Forest Preserve, which is a specified quarter-mile walk that is dedicated to all children and siblings who have left us too soon.  The Northern Lake County Chapter of The Compassionate Friends, in partnership with the Lake County Forest Preserve District, is working toward restoring the wooded walk with trees, shrubs, flowers, and benches.  For each planting that is dedicated to an individual, an engraved nameplate will be added to the plaque " Our Children Remembered".  My goal is to raise enough funds to have five nameplates for the five families that I personally know who have lost a little angel.   

When you purchase any of the items from the Butterfly Brillance Collection (or any current Butterfly stamp set/punch/die), I will donate 20% of the sale to the Woodland Walk Memorial. Scroll down to see the items available and please use the Host Code shown here.

#simplestamping - In Color Cute Fruit

Here's my take on some #simplestamping with the new 2020-2021 In Colors!  The Cute Fruit set featured in the Beginners Brochure really caught my eye...it's just so CUTE!  I made these 3x3 cards to show on my Tuesday Night Stampin' Club Facebook Live video last night.  This card template makes the most out of your cardstock!  You can make 12 cards with one sheet of Whisper White 8-1/2" x 11" and one and a half sheets of 12" x 12" cardstock!

 
 


To make the 3x3 cards, cut your Whisper White at 2-3/4" along the 8-1/2" side to create 3 strips with a 1/4" scrap strip leftover.  Then cut those strips at 2-3/4" along the 11" side to create 4 squares per strip.  Now take your coordinating 12x12 colored cardstock and cut at 3" to create 4 strips.  Cut them at 6" to create two pieces of 3"x 6" per strip.  Score at 3" and fold to create your 3x3 card.  You can even score the whole sheet of 12x12 before you make any cuts to save time!!!!

And who wouldn't love to get this cute pizza box filled with these small cards and envelopes so they can use some Cute Fruit cards!
