Damask Pop Up Card

It's Tune in Tuesday!

Today's theme is Pop Up cards and our guest designer on TAC Savvy Projects Blog is Paula-Kay


A simple front.


A pop up flower inside.  I found this 3 piece pop up flower template online. I simply laid the pattern on the cardstock and cut out the shape. 


I stamped the flower pieces with Damask Backgrounder before assembling.  I made a little video so you could see how the flower unfolds.


Supplies -- Stamps: Damask Backgrounder, Love You (Level B Hostess set), Fundamental Frames, Wonderful News, Papers: Bazzill Lizard, Tink Pink, Inks: VersaMark and Nior Palette ink.

Hope you enjoyed my pop up card.
Blessings,
Deb
