For my card, I used this great die cut from The Greetary. It is perfect for using up scraps and they have a fantastic sentiment set that you can get to coordinate with it. My son does calligraphy and this is perfect for a few cards that I can make him to use.

The sentiment is heat embossed in silver to pick up the silver layer and the silver I used in the die cut.

Pop Up Box Graduation

 

WT1043 - Pop-Up Box

I have wanted to make one of these cards for a very long time. For my card, I created the box layer using this tutorial: Pop-Up Box Card Tutorial - Splitcoaststampers.

The caps on the card are stenciled using black distress ink. I then die cut several balloons, the congratulations and the bird using dies from Spellbinders, Honey Bee Stamps, Memory Box, Jaded Blossom and Karen Burniston.

The stars are punched from gold and all of the pieces are added using acetate. Tied to the balloons is some red and white bakers twine. I made sure when I fold the bird in first that it closes so that the black card front is the only thing that shows. Truely this is a really fun card to make. On the back I added a white card stock for the user to add a personal message.

For my card, I was inspired by the layout of the hearts from the inspiration. I made another card recently using this same technique. It is a fun technique and a great way to use up a bunch of small hearts that I punch out of my scrap paper.

I learned this technique more than 5 years ago. The technique used die cuts but I again used scrap punched hearts. I layered them gluing 5 high. Next, I used my score tool to score the lines on white cardstock. I then laid out the hearts on the card front.

Die Cut Relief Tutorial - Splitcoaststampers

Once the glue was dry, I used red acrylic paint for the first layer then I used watered down pink and ran it over the top of the hearts. Finally, while it was still damp, I used gold foil flakes.

The card was finished with The Ton die cut XOXO and the sentiment popped up on dimensionals.
