Strawberry Pop Up Flip Card

So, I made a video today demonstrating the Pop Up Flip Card Fold!  This is one of the samples that I created! I was inspired by another demonstrator, and LOVE how it turned out!  I particularly like the layers of red and white on the circle!



Measurements:  

  • Basic White: 1/2 sheet,  3 3/4" x 5" (inside), 3" x 4" (mechanism), 3/4" x 2 1/4" (mechanism), 2 3/4" square, scraps
  • Real Red: 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Berry Blessings DSP (ret) 4" x 5 1/4
To Make This Card:

  • Fold Basic White card in half.  Attach Real Red quarter and Basic White Layer to the inside.
  • Attach DSP to front of card, around the outside edges only. Cut largest Stitched Circle from front of card.  Keep the White cardstock circle, and discard the DSP.
  • Cut medium smooth circle from Real Red. Layer with smaller Stitched Circle cut from Basic White. Att to larger Stitched Circle.
  • Score the 3" x 4" Basic White piece at 1", 2", 3". Crease well.  Fold this piece in half. Add Tear & Tape to one outside 1" area, one of the ends. Flip this over and adhere to inside of card, with cut edge along fold of card. "Eyeball" this so it is centered behind the Oval opening.
  • Keeping this piece folded in half, add Tear & Tape to the other "end" and close the card!  Voila the first mechanism/pop up!
  • Now, take the 3/4" strip and score at 1 1/4". Hold in half and crease well. Flip over so the longer side is up, and place Tear & Tape on this area. Close your card, and place this mechanism so the adhesive side is down, short side is up, and cut edge is against the circle. Press down.
  • Now place some adhesive on the shorter side. Close card, and place cut circles in the opening and attach to the flap with the adhesive on it. Check to see that it works!!  Isn't it fun!!
  • Finish by adding image to the front. As well as any sentiments.
  • My card wouldn't stay closed, so I added a clear velcro dot!
