I saw this awesome card a while back, but was having trouble finding directions! Well, I have now found several, along with a multitude of samples! This would be perfect for Easter, but also any other appropriate occasion as well! It does have quite a few pieces, but the neat thing is that it uses mostly scraps!! So, dig out your favs, and give this a try! These directions and idea are from Sally Poole. Check out her video for many more awesome ideas!
Folds flat for mailing!
Measurements:
- Cherry Cobbler: 5" x 5 1/4" (pop up base), 1 1/4" x 3 1/8" (cross)
- Basic White: 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" (base),1 1/8" x 5 1/8" (cross support), 1 1/8" x 3" (cross), 2 pcs @ 7/8" x 5 1/8" (outside pieces), 2 pcs @ 3/4" x 5 1/8" (pop up sides)
- Regal Winter DSP (ret): 1" x 5" (cross support), 1" x 2 7/8" (cross), 2 pcs @ 3/4" x 5" (outside pieces), 2 pcs @ 5/8" x 5" ( pop up sides)
To Make This Card:
- Score Cherry Cobbler Pop Up Base along 5" side at 1"- 1 7/8" - 3 1/8" - 4". Crease as shown - valley, mountain, mountain, valley. Crease well.
- Match up DSP pieces to White layers. I flipped the DSP to the more solid Cherry Cobbler side for the 2 "outside" pieces.
- Next, adhere to the coordinating areas of the Cherry Cobbler Pop Up base. (leave the cross piece for the moment)
- Now, place tear in tape on wrong side of the outside pieces. Remove backing. Smash flat (like you will put in an envelope, so it kind of rests to the side), and center over White base and adhere.
- Lastly, add cross piece.
- Notes: I felt the paper was pretty enough without additional embellishments. But that is up to you. Sally, used a font on her computer to write "He is Risen", cut it in a circle, and placed in the center of her cross. A variety of other sentiments could be stamped as well.
- You could also use the base, or add another layer to the base, for a message.
