Delightful Wishes Side Tower Pop Up Card

 Here is one of Susan Campfields' original designs using the Delightful Wishes Bundle. This sample uses an embossing folder for some of the decorative layers, as well as I die cut flower from the coordinating vellum. I just love the cheery yellow color!

  • Daffodil Delight:  3 1/4" x 3 3/4" (pop up), 1" x 3 3/4" (pop up)
  • Floral Delight DSP (N): 3" x 3 1/2" (pop up - blue floral) 7/8" (pop up - yellow gingham)
  • Floral & Gingham Vellum (N): 2 pcs @ 5/8" x 4 1/8" (blue print - back); die cut flower/leaf
To Make This Card:
  • Score the "tower" piece at 1" - 2" - 3" - 4". Crease well, making all creases "mountain" folds! (This will create 5 - 1" sections).
  • Place Tear n Tape on last 1" section, and adhere together, making "tower". Once, formed, lay flat (it WILL lay better one direction), and place Tear n Tape on one of the other 1" sections. Remove backing, and attach to "postcard" base placing folded edge with the Tear n Tape even to cut edge.
  • Emboss 2 "tower" pieces and right side piece of White with Embossing Folder of your choice. Adhere the 2 "tower" pieces to the "tower".  Save the other embossed piece for later.
  • Score the "pop up" piece at 1" - 2". Crease well. These are both "mountain" folds as well.
  • Place Tear n Tape on the last 1" section of the "pop up".
  • Now, pop the "tower" into place. Flatten the 2 "pop up" sections of the "pop up" piece back behind top.  
  • Next, line up the left, cut edge of the "pop up" to the crease of the tower, as shown. lay flat, into mailing mode, and stick back piece into place.
  • Now, place Tear n Tape on the wrong side of the left edge, and adhere this to the "tower". And, voila!
  • Now, you can add the last embossed strip to the right side of the card base.
  • Layer all the "square"  "pop up" layers together and add to "pop up" piece.
  • Then, stamp up the "Happy Birthday" only from the Delightful Wishes stamp set and stamp onto scrap of White.  Die cut with included label die.
  • Layer the cross pieces together.  Add sentiment with Mini Dimensionals.  Add to "pop up".
  • Die cut flower & leaf from print vellum piece.  There IS a die that coordinates with this.
  • Also, die cut a "sprig" from a die set of your choice.  Mine is from the Linked Together Dies. 
  • Assemble onto "pop up" piece, as shown.
  • Finish front with scattered Antique Pearls
  • To finish the back, adhere the 2 vellum strips on the outside of back, as shown.  Add the 2 layers and stamp a sentiment in Memento Black.
