CREATE AN AMAZING POP UP CARD USING THE STORYBOOK GNOMES SUITE

 



Who doesn't love a cute gnome? The STORYBOOK GNOME SUITE in the new mini catalog is an adorable set of products.  The KINDEST GNOMES BUNDLE has adorable gnome images and coordinating dies.



As with many of the suites, the Designer Series Paper is the star.  The adorable images and the ability to cut them out using the suite's dies makes them just perfect.


The design of this POP UP CARD is very simple and can be used with any suite.

Start with a piece of SOFT SUEDE cut at 4-1/4in by 11in, scored at 5-1/2in for the card base.  Next, adhere a 4in by 5-1/4in piece of DSP on the card front and the inside of the card directly behind the card front. Then place a 4in by 5-1/4in piece of BASIC WHITE card stock on the other side inside the card.

Next, let's create the pop ups.  For the larger pop up, cut a piece of SOFT SUEDE at 3-3/4in by 5in. Score on the LONG SIDE at 1in, 2in, 3in, 4in.  Crease and fold into a rectangular prism.  For the smaller pop up, cut a second piece of SOFT SUEDE at 2in by 3-1/2in.  Score on the LONG SIDE at 1/2in, 1-1/2in, 2in, 3in.  Crease and fold into a smaller rectangular prism.  Attach the larger to the inside hinge first, then the smaller above to the left.

Finally, cut a piece of WHITE GLIMMER PAPER at 3/4in by 3-3/4in and cut a hill of snow using a PAPER SNIPS.  Adhere it to the front side of the large pop up using TOMBOW ADHESIVE.  Place the two gnome and mushroom house images on the card as shown using DIMENSIONALS.

For the sentiment on the outside of the card, use a 5/8in strip of BASIC WHITE card stock and stamp in BALMY BLUE ink.  Adhere the strip on a 3/4in strip of WHITE GLIMMER PAPER and trip around the banner flag.  Adhere to the front of the card using DIMENSIONALS.
