Elegant Butterfly Surprise Ball Pop Up Card

Hello my crafty friends

If you follow my blog, you know I rarely post my cards in the same order I make them. This one was made the same week the Design Team got their new release dies and since I had just done the bright and cheerful Surprise Ball I wanted something more elegant.

I have been working with kraft card stock a lot these days, so pulled that out as well as some retired kraft and metallic patterned paper. 

Since this die creates such a fun pop up element, I'm sharing the action in a short YouTube video with more photos below that.

I decorated the ball with the flowers from the Woven Basket Pop Up and the butterfly from the Circle Charms Pop Up die sets.

I didn't add foam tape to the elements, as with all the layers this card is bulky enough! It should still to through the mail with an additional stamp though. It's also perfect for a card that will be hand delivered, because then you will get to see the recipients face when they open it.
