Today I'm sharing a fairly simple pop-up card I made for our son-in-law for Father's Day. The patterned paper takes centre stage as he loves to travel and that winding road just spoke to me for him. The card base is 6.5 x 5", but I cut it down to 6.25" since the paper is 6x6" square. That left me with a smaller white border on each side which I liked better. (The paper was cut to 5x6")
Inside I used Karen Burniston's Little Twist Panel Pop Up die set, which I haven't had out for a while. The stamps are all older ones from my stash and listed below if you are curious.
I also added a panel on the inside bottom of the card before adding the mechanism, as it felt like it needed some balance and stability. That also helps the mechanism work smoother and it just feels better in my hand.
Supplies used:
Patterned paper - Watercoloured Landscapes 1.0, Paper Rose
5x6.5" card base and envelope
Adventure - Wild Whisper
Little Twist Panel Pop Up - Karen Burniston
Birds & tree stamps - Here's to you, March 21 Paper Pumpkin
Happy Father's Day - Tie-Riffic, Reverse Confetti
Short Rectangles Crosshatch - Karen Burniston
Awesome card
