How to make a pop up card

I’ve got a lovely little project for you today. How to make a pop up card. It is so easy to make but looks super impressive. This card will work for so many ages and occasions using the appropriate stamp sets. Make sure to check out the quick video further down this post.

My main reason for using ‘A Little Wild’ stamp set today is that it is about to retire from our Annual Catalogue so I wanted to get to use it again before it retires. I just love the cute little critters in this set.

I normally sell off my retired stock however I think I might have trouble parting with this one. Maybe I’ll just hang on to this for a while 🙂

So if you want to get your hands on this lovely set of cuteness then get right on over to my shop HERE and order it before it goes out of stock.

Or check out the fantastic Designer Series Paper HERE.

I used the retired Bundle of Love, Designer Series Paper however there are LOADS of gorgeous papers to choose from.

So let’s get started.

This lovely project uses a beautiful fold that allows the focal point to sit proudly on display. Who wouldn’t love to receive a card like this! I plan to make one for my gorgeous granddaughter to sit on her bedroom dresser.

I’ve got a free video tutorial for you too to help you along. So just click on the picture below.
