Simple Pop-Up Butterfly Birthday Card

Do you like to send Wow birthday cards, but don't want to take a lot of time putting one together? This card layout just might be what you are looking for!


I've seen a lot of cards that pop-up along a horizontal oriented card, but I wanted one that I could use with the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set. And, well, the image I wanted to use is a vertical image.

\

I didn't add embellishments, didn't color but kept the card fairly simple. Certainly you could add all the extras you desired. I kind of like the simple look.

Measurements:

Misty Moonlight cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4" along the 8-1/2" side
Basic White cardstock: 5" x 8" and scored at 4" along the 8" side; 3-1/4" x 4-1/4" for the greeting; 1/2" x 2-3/4" (keep those scraps when you cut inside layers); 6" x 7" to stamp & cut the butterflies
Butterfly Bijou DSP: 4" x 5-1/4"; 3/4" x 5"

Watch the step-by-step video instructions of how simple this card is to put together:


Thanks for stopping by & happy stamping!

2011 Desktop Calendar

This month in my stamp club meetings, I had the gals make these desktop calendars. It was a big hit. The image to the left of the calendar can be changed according to the season (winter, spring, summer & fall) by removing the image and placing one of the other 3 onto the velcro dot (attached behind the image). The corresponding side of the velcro dot is placed on the back side of the images. I used the stamp set A Flower for all Seasons , #111592, $14.95. And, the extra images are stored inside in a small cellophane bag. The calendar base takes only 1 sheet of card stock to make, measuring 9" x 6-1/2". With simple scoring and folding, it goes together very quickly. Another demonstrator had shared the calendar file that is printed onto printer paper and cut to size. All fit into the 1/2" library clip from the clips assortment (#112580; $6.95). There are 8 of them included in the package along with a couple of other style of paper clips. While they are still ...
