A little while back, someone requested that I look into doing a "corner pop-up" card sometime. Little did I know that a few months later, I would be doing an entire class on this type of card, but it's been so much fun! So for the first time, we will focus a Fancy Fold class on one technique but with a three different presentations. All square cards are 4 1/4" and will fit into our standard A2 sized envelopes, so they don't need extra postage to mail. With the different styles and options, I hope you'll also find it fascinating to explore all the possibilities!
The upper left "creative" card has stamps and papers that celebrate our love of crafting and hand-made art. Note how this design option opens with the diagonal fold on the bottom of the card and includes a small pocket for a gift card, paper money, or extra hidden message. This little pocket can also be easily glued closed if it is not needed, but what a fun card option to have and send along to others.
The middle card is one of those birthday cards that everyone would love to receive, no matter what their age! Bright colors and cute critters are everywhere, and with the diagonal fold now on the right side, the word banner springs up to add even more fun. You could certainly add more balloons, banners, or other embellishments for even more pop!
The third card is just really beautiful inside and out. There will be words available for this to be a Valentine's Day card for someone special (with this month in mind), but for here I decided to keep it more versatile with a simple but sincere "Thinking of You" sentiment. The card now has the diagonal fold on the left side so that the white magnolia flower swings to the left from its window position when it is opened. You may not be able to see the detail of this embossed flower in the photo, but is it really dimensional and life-like in person. The inside is also extra pretty, with softly colored stamping and coordinating papers that make this diagonal "window" version of our pop-up card one that you'll want to make multiples of to have and give for many different occasions.
To make these three very special cards and have all the printed measurements and instructions, save the date and be sure you don't miss this class! Remember that SAB (Sale-A-Bration) is still going on, so each $50 order increment earns you a Stampin' Up Freebie, no limit!
