Oh My Fright Surprise Pop Up Card

I am just loving this fold! This idea was inspired by France Martin i.e. Frenchie! I think it will be a fun one for club this month, so I gave it a try. I love how this turned out. The DSP with this suite is just so much fun! It also uses the Spooktacular DSP from the July Online Exclusives! How cute!

Measurements:

Pumpkin Pie: 1/2 sheet, 1 1/2" x 5" (mechanism), 1 1/4" x 3"
Basic Black: 4 1/8" x 5 3/8", 4" x 4" (inside), 1 1/4" x 3", scraps
Basic White: scraps
Very Vanilla: 4" x 4 3/8" (inside)
Frightfully Fun DSP (N) (OE): 3 7/8" x 5 1/8" (front), 1 1/4" x 5 1/2" (inside) - (tree border)
Spooktacular DSP (N) (OE): 3 7/8" square, continue pattern for 1 1/8" onto bottom

To Make This Card:

Let's create the Pop Up Mechanism first.
Take the 1 1/2" x 5" mechanism piece and score @ 1/2" the full length of the strip.
Along that score line, measure in 1" from the left edge and make a mark (see above).
Along the top edge, measure in 2" from the left edge and make a mark.
From the top-left corner, score a diagonal line down to the 1" mark.
From the 2" mark at the top, score a daigonal line down to that same, 1" mark. These two diagonals form a "V" meeting at the point on the score line.
Cut off the bottom-left corner (see above) - the small rectangle below the score line and to the left of the 1" mark. (Shown in purple above).
Fold along the scored lines: the "V" folds inward, creating the pop-up mechanism.
To create the pop-up inside, place adhesive onto the outside "triangle", with this space folded up. Adhere to "inside" of card with the "side" edge following the top edge of the inside of the card, and the "top" edge of the strip following the center crease of the card.
Next, place adhesive on the long 1/2" edge. Close card, with angles into place and 1/2" strip will adhere to the inside back of the card, following the top cut edge of the card..
Voila! Check to make sure the "mechanism" pops.
To finish the rest of the inside, adhere the printed "face" to the Black square, then add to the 1/2" sticking up from the mechanism. Note: don't adhere it to close the the center fold of the card.
The Vanilla piece gets adhered below, and I added the "continuation" to the top of the bottom piece, continuing the fun image.
On the inside left side, I added a contrasting, but coordinating piece of DSP, along with a die cut bat.
Now, for the front. Adhere the Basic Black layer. To that, add the DSP.
Next, stamp sentiment in black ink onto strip of Pumpkin Pie. Die cut from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Also, die cut the Black layer from the same die.
Overlap the 2 "banners" to create one label. Then, trim the Pumpkin Pie layer, if desired (as shown).
Die cut the "ghost" with the cut out eyes. Place a little black behind them. then add to front with Dimensionals.
Add remaining 2 "bats", as well as Bat, Ghost and Dots embellishments.

Adhere each to one Black arch.
Next, die cut "halloween" and the "spider web" from White cardstock. Also, stamp "ghost" and die cut from White. Set aside.
Die cut "tree" from 2-Tone Black. Stamp and die cut the "cat" from the 2-Tone Black as well.
Die cut 3 "spiders" from black, as well as 3 "bats" and 3 "flourishes".
Die cut "moon" from Golden Glow Pearlized Paper.
OK, let's start with the first panel.
Add "tree", first to the right side. Then, add White "Halloween" to the bottom.
Carefully tuck the "moon", under the "tree".
Next, add the "bats. Make sure that you can see the "eyes" through the Pumpkin Pie background.
Add the "ghost" with Dimensionals.
Emboss "Happy" in White onto a small piece of Black. Attach above "Halloween". Set aside.

Sunflower Fields Fun Fold

I received this interesting fun fold at the event in Grand Rapids, MI. Sadly, if I had the info of who made it, it's been lost. The base is actually a piece of 2-Tone Mossy Meadow cardstock, as you need a 12" long piece to create the fold! (Unless, you have our regular 12" x 12" cardstock!) The rest appears to be pretty forward! (Remember, I received this, I haven't made it!)

Measurements:

Daffodil Delight: 1/4 sheet
Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5", 1 3/4" x 2 3/4" (label)
Mossy Meadow 2-Tone Cardstock: 5 1/4" x 12"
Sunflower Fields DSP (N): 2 pcs @ 1 1/4" x 5", 3 1/4" x 5" (Pecan Pie check);2 3/4" x 5", 3 1/4" x 5" (Pecan Sunflower print)

To Make This Card:

Score Mossy Meadow base @ 1 1/2" - 5 1/2" - 9". Accordion fold. Crease well, and adhere largest, center area to Daffodil "post card" base.
Stamp White, inside layer, with "sunflower" in Cajun Craze and "leaves" in Mossy Meadow, in the corner, as shown.
Then, adhere to center section of card base.
Next, adhere the 2 Pecan Pie check pieces to the front and back of the small flaps.
Then, adhere the Sunflower pieces, as shown. And the larger, Pecan Pie check piece, to the back.
Fold all back into place. Isn't it a neat effect!?
To finish the card, stamp sentiment in Cajun Craze ink, and die cut with label die from the Radiant Sunflower dies.
Add a strip of Mossy Meadow Gingham Ribbon behind label, and adhere to front of card with Dimensionals.
FInish with Radiant Gems.
