Anniversary Wishes go out to my friend Joanne and her husband, Mark! This is the card I sent them.
It's called a "Free-Standing Pop-Up" card. The instructions I used were from SplitCoastStampers. You can find them here. You'll find written instructions as well as a video tutorial. It's really very simple to make. Figuring out how to decorate it is definitely the hardest part! My cardstock is all Stampin' Up! I used Pale Plum, Perfect Plum, and Old Olive. (Can you believe it - NO WHITE!) I used a Cuttlebug border folder and also my Swiss Dots folder. The stamps are all from Papertrey's Wishing You set. The butterfly is done with a Martha Stewart punch.Here is a picture of the card folded flat. Well, almost flat. It's as flat as I could get it for a picture.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
That's a beautifull card Lynette! Love the purple!

ReplyDeleteThis card is even MORE gorgeous in real life! I love the fact that it stands up and doesn't fall over when someone walks past it, too. You are such a pro at these pop up cards, and I'm honored to get one!
