Mini Slimline Pop Up Card Duo

Hello my crafty friends!  This pair of Mini Slimline cards are based on the April 2022 Sheetload of cards. I finished them in early April but couldn't share them because I used some of Karen Burniston's new release. We could't share our projects until May 9th so I hung onto the photos until now. 

First of all, I LOVED the April Sheetload, as it was for Mini Slimline cards. But when I discovered that the Pivot Panels fit inside this fold? I was SO excited. Below you can see the inside of both cards.

I used papers, cut aparts and stickers from Echo Park's 'Summer' line and this Sheetload uses 6 x 6" papers. The card front (which is shorter than the card back) has one of the prints and the inside has a coordinating print. You can see both as the card comes out of the envelope. Now that April 2022 Sheetload was hugely popular and I knew I'd make it often. But if I can make a Mini Slimline, a Fun Fold AND a Pop Up? That's just a winning combination in my books. 😊

The Flower Pivot Panel is what I used inside, as well as the Border Blends: Trims. The dragonflies are from the new Flutter Charms.

Love the dragonflies ... they have both a solid and a detail layer. 

The second card uses the same dies as above, but also the Happy Birthday and Happy Birthday Shadow.

Here is a closer look at the inside of the second card ...

Karen Burniston has assembly videos for all of her pop up dies including this one. If you have the die, then you have probably already checked out her video tutorial so I don't attempt do 'reinvent the wheel' by doing another assembly one. I prefer to show you different ways you can use those same dies since people love to see a variety of looks! Here is the link to the Karen Burniston website, which includes the assembly videos: Once you know how to assemble your die, the rest is card size, paper and colour choice as well as embellishments! You can change the look of your card every time you use the dies. 😊
