Mini Slimline Floating Panel Card & Tutorial


Hello my crafty friends.  I pulled out some older items from my craft room for these three Mini Slimline cards, and decided to make them pop up cards. I also did a tutorial on this 'floating panel' technique and you can find it and more details in my YouTube video:   


All three cards are for different occasions. I have a Birthday card, a thank you card and one uplifting card to send out for Happy Mail. After stamping and punching the mason jar & stems, I added different flowers from the April 2021 Blessings Box from Divinity Designs.


Below is what the inside of the Birthday card looks like...


Next up is the Thank You Card. The patterned paper is an older paper pad that I had found at Michaels. Using the Mini Slimline dies, I was able to place them on the paper and make the best use out of the different colours/patterns.


The floating panels fold flat to write a personal message, so you aren't trying to write in mid air. 😊


Finally, the third card. I loved the gold veining on this patterned paper sheet - wish they all had it! I matted the sentiment banner with gold foil card stock to compliment the gold.


Here are the measurements for the pop up platform:   4.5 x 1.5", score at  .75, 2.25, and 3"
