Garden Border Pop-Up Card

Hi there! It's Andrea with you sharing a fun, floral box card featuring new dies from Crafty Meraki.

I used the Magic Maker Pop Up Dies and Bouquet Builder Dies to create this flower-garden. I couldn't resist adding a beautiful butterfly from the Butterfly Bliss stamp.

Using the Magic Maker Pop Up Dies, I cut my elements from green and white cardstocks and a pretty paper from the Color Cascade Patterned Paper. I blended the bottoms of the green diecuts with green ink and stenciled clouds onto the white panel with blue ink. I adhered the patterned paper diecuts to the appropriate pieces and placed double-sided adhesive on the tabs pictured above.

I created my flowers by diecutting colored cardstock with the Bouquet Builder Dies. As seen on the center, pink flower in the photo, I trimmed a bit from the top of the foliage and assembled everything with liquid adhesive.

I affixed the cloud panel onto the arched, green diecut and assembled the cardbase using the strips of double-sided adhesive I had placed onto the green tabs. I attached the flowers with liquid adhesive, trimming any excess stem that protruded below the cardbase. Because the green cardstock was a little thin (and I didn't think to layer two stems together to make them sturdier), I added strips of clear acetate behind most of the flowers to give them a little support.

I colored one of the butterflies from the Butterfly Bliss stamp with Copics and cut it out with the coordinating die. I added some highlights with a white gel pen and attached it to the card with liquid adhesive along the body, bending up the wings for dimension.

For my sentiment I used the Gilded Greetings Hot Foil Plate with Gold Glimmer Foil and diecut it with the coordinating die. I popped up my sentiment with foam and finished with a few Lavender Luster Opals.

Thanks for stopping by!
