Interactive Pop-Up Floral Card

 Hello friends! Today I am posting for CutCardStock. I saw this fun pop-up card style by @bibicameron with pop up flowers inside and I knew I had to make one!

Die Cut the Flowers

Using the floral dies of your choice, die cut a group of flowers for both the outside and inside the card. I used Sizzix Modern Floristry die. I recently bought the Color Cubes and decided to pull a card to guide my cardstock selection. Cardstock used include DCS BayleafLessebo SunflowerLessebo Cherry RedLessebo Brick and a deep purple from my stash. You can see how well the cardstock colors match the Color Cube Card (@sarahrenaeclark).

Bibi Cameron has a short reel on her Instagram Account (@bibicameron) documenting the steps to pop up the interior flowers. She basically used cardstock strips, scored and folded in a triangle like shape for the pop-ups.

Create the Card Base

Trim a piece of Royal Sundance Kraft 80 lb. Cardstock to 5.5 x 4.25. Score in the center to form an A2 card base.

Score a piece of Kraft cardstock 3 x 8.5 inches into 1 inch scores with 1/2 inch left over. Add glue on the end and fold. Trim into 1/2 inch pieced the scored piece in half leaving a 3 x 4 inch double piece of cardstock. The base triangle is formed by folding the scored pieces leaving 2 inches at the top on each side and gluing the additional scored pieces together leaving a two inch base to glue to the card base along the center score. This allows the triangle to pop up when the card is opened. You will want to add three triangles. Add 1/4 inch strips to the center piece of the triangle so you can add more flowers.

This is what the completed triangle bases look like before standing up and gluing the bottom to both sides of the crease.

Arrange the Pop-Up Flowers

After gluing the various layers of the flowers together, arrange and glue them on the sides of the center triangles with some on the 1/4 inch strips.

Complete the Card Front

Use the Intertwine 3D embossing folder on a piece of Baronial Ivory Cardstock after die cutting it into an oval shape. Use Distress Tea Dye inks smooshed on your craft mat to add color to the wicker texture. Add foam strips and add to the front card base. Arrange a few flowers on the left side of the wicker oval.

Emboss a sentiment of choice and stack with additional Cardstock layers. Attach to the card front.
