I was asked to make this card last year just never got around to posting it, it was the first time I had made a pop up card and have to say I did find it a little challenging getting all the bits to fit into an envelope but as it was to be hand delivered it didn't matter too much that the envelope was a little too big for it. Apparently the card was very well received and much admired which is always nice to know.The papers were from a scrapbooking set I got from qvc many moons ago and as they were all co-ordinated it took all the hard work out of finding matching papers.
The flowers and cute fellows on the inside were from judikins and lili of the valley respectfully. I fussy cut all out and coloured the flowers in co-ordinating colours to the papers using promarkers. The smaller flowers were punched with a punch from hobbycraft.
I added die cut swirls and butterflies can't remember the actual die makes sorry and a sentiment stamp from lily of the valley and finally a stamped and powder embossed sentiment by the stamp man.
I attached the butterflies on acetate strips so the appeared to be floating which I felt gave a life and movement to the card.
