I was inspired by all the gorgeous purples in the beautiful card Loni created and used that as my starting point. For my project, I made a Pop-Up Box card following this TUTORIAL. On the front, I featured a Stampin Up image paired with a coordinating sentiment. Each side of the box is covered with purple gingham paper, accented with hearts and balloons for extra charm.
Inside the pop-up, I carried the heart and balloon theme through the elements, adding sparkling stars cut from glitter paper for a touch of shine. To finish, the back panel showcases a large heart along with a sentiment from Waffle Flower, tying everything together with a sweet and celebratory feel.
Here is the Pop-Up Box card folded flat for easy mailing. I decorated this panel with a large heart and added “21” balloons to mark the special milestone, finishing them off with ribbon tied to the balloons for an extra festive touch. It’s such a fun way to keep the design celebratory while still being practical to send through the mail.

As You Like It - Favorite Die and Why - For me, I am so thrilled when I get asked to make a very special card for someone to give with hearts. I love putting this die cut heart on cards. The stitching adds to the die cut to really step up a card.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous rich purples along with the softer lilac shades, what a very special card to receive. As Janette said, feel the need to make a pop up, something I promised myself to try so many times but never had - yet.
