Meadow Blooms Wonky Pop-Ups Card

By Teresa Welch

Instructions:

1. For the card front: Place the card with the fold on the left. Cut 4¾"x6¼" green cardstock and glue it centered on the card front. Cut 4½"x6" Meadow Blooms green border cardstock and glue it centered on the front. Place a gold border Dazzles™ near the left edge of the border cardstock, trimming the excess.

2. Glue the “wish you were here” die-cut and the round cutout at the lower right, then foam tape the butterfly square cutout overlapping both as shown. Place gold “love you” and tiny flower Dazzles™ among them as shown. Decorate the flowers with jewel Dazzles™. Knot 4" of gold satin ribbon, trim the ends, and attach it to the die-cut with sticky tape.

3. For the inside: Cut two 4¾"x6¼" light yellow cardstocks and glue them centered on the inside panels. Cut two 3"x6" Meadow Blooms yellow flowers cardstocks and glue them to the light yellow cardstocks as shown. Place gold border Dazzles™ near the outer edge of each flowers cardstock, trimming the excess. Decorate the borders with jewel Dazzles™.

4. Cut three 7"x2" light yellow cardstocks. Place each horizontally and score each ½", 3½", and 4½" from the left end. Crease all the scores in mountain folds. Place sticky tape on both end panels of each strip.

5. Position the right end of one strip along the upper edge of the light yellow cardstock on the right inside panel, butting the end of the strip against the card’s center fold. Fold the strip on the 4½" score line and flatten it so the ½" end tab butts against the card’s center fold. Close the back over the front, securing the pop-up in place.

6. Repeat with another strip, this time aligning it along the bottom edge of the light yellow cardstock, again on the left inside panel. For the last strip, center it between the first two, but position it on the right inside panel.

7. Glue the “sending you a hello” cutout on the top pop-up and the arched cutout on the bottom pop-up. Trim the tan wreath cutout to 2½"x1¾", then glue it to the center pop-up. Place the gold word and accent Dazzles™ on the pop-ups as shown, then decorate the small flowers with lime jewel Dazzles™.
