Inside Card:


1. Lightly sand inside of card to reveal core color.

2. Follow directions inside Sizzix die for making pop-up.
3. Cut a 1¾ x 2½ inch strip of stripe paper and center on inside of pull tab. Cut the 4th largest label from yellow dots. Ink edges and adhere to stripe strip.
4. Cut a 2 x 2 inch square of yellow dots and mount inside of square. Embellish.
5. Die cut the largest Spellbinder label from printed-paper. Adhere in center of the card and about ⅜ of an inch from score line. Add written sentiment.
6. Adhere pop-up over right side of largest label. Be sure to only put adhesive on the loop portion as shown in the instructions. (when tab is pulled the whole section needs to be able to move)
7. Embellish left side of card if desired.



TIPS:

· Practice making the pop-up out of scrap paper first.
· Plan out the papers before starting to die cut.
· Use a double-sided paper for making the pop-up and you will be able to use opposite side for the accent pieces.
· When putting the pop-up together, make sure to match up the top decorative edges. (Each side is slightly different.)
· Use liquid glue for adhering the frame accent.


Happy crafting!

  2. Cute card! I like how you personalized the inside of the card, too. We've also made some fun cards on our Out of Office blog.

    Thanks for sharing the idea! Can't believe Father's Day is already here.
