SU Poppies and Easter Cards

LOVE this SU poppy set that Alice let me use!

This is my dear DIL's birthday card :-)

Inside idea for a 3D floral pop-up:

Measurements for pop-up box:

2 1/4" x 6 1/4"

Along 2 1/4 side, score at 1 3/4"

Along 6 1/4" side, score at 1.5", 3", 4.5" and 6"

Cut two pieces that measure 3/4" x 2 1/2"

Along 2.5" side, score at 1/2" and 2"

Fold along score line to create two tabs

Glue each tab to the inside of the box

My Easter card versions for 2020:

Favorite Baby Girl Card

I try to keep a card like this on hand to send out for birthdays or congrats on the birth of your new baby girl. It's fun to see the results from using different combinations of DSP.

Sentiment: Vintage Labels (SU Retired)

This is a 5" square card and the center square measures 3 1/4". The blouse is SU's label punch and the dress is made from their scalloped oval punch. I also ran the ovals through an embossing folder to give a little bit of texture to the dress.

DSP Organizer

Frenchie Stamps posted a how to video HERE for making a 6" x 6" DSP organizer out of the heavy card stock that comes with their DSP papers as a backing in the package. I've been busy cutting up my DSP ever since! I gave it a try and now I'm finally using those pieces of 12" x 12" DSP that I've been hoarding! It's also convenient to keep coordinated papers together in a small spot on my desk so I'll actually use them. This would also make a nice box to give away some of my cards as a gift.

Pop Up Butterflies

Last week, this Winged Box Card by Dina Kowal was posted on Splitcoaststampers.com:

The tutorial HERE made it easy to give this card a try:

I then found some glitter butterfly vellum that I had been saving for eons and decided it was time to use it! The scalloped frame is a wonderful technique for vellum papers. Using liquid glue on the edges of the frame hides the adhesive on the vellum.
