Scary Cute Pop-upCard

photo is of a Halloween Scary Cute Pop-up Card

This scary cute pop-up card is such fun to play with. What you are seeing is the card in the closed. The magic happens when you open the card. The photo shows the card flattened open but it is 3 dimensional otherwise. I love how the black cat pops up! I can play with it for minutes at a time. 🙂

The images of the children do not have a corresponding die so I fussy cut them out. The tricky part of the card is getting the pop-up feature to work properly without any of the cat showing out the bottom of the card when it is closed. The fence is cut out with part of a Split Card Textures die

Stunning Shimmery Halloween Card

Handmade stunning shimmery Halloween card

This stunning shimmery Halloween card is easy to make using the split-circle technique. I designed this card for an Facebook Groups class I’m holding Sunday afternoon. Due to copyright laws, we aren’t allowed to include stamped images in card kits. Therefore I used a collection of dies to make this card.

The split-circle technique gives that swoop of color in the center of the card. You cut out four circles in increasing size using alternating colors/designs of cardstock/designer series papers. In this case I used the Rainbow Glimmer paper on the purple to yellow side of the sheet. I used the layering circle dies starting with the smallest circle. I labeled the dies in increasing size starting with the smallest being one and the largest being 8. I used #1 – #4 dies for the circles. Then cut the circles in half and adhere together as shown. For your convenience I have listed the place to position each circle on your paper trimmer to have them cut in half. Notice that each die goes up exactly 1/8″ plus the 1/16″. I could have given the measurements all in sixteenths but I found it easier to find the eights on the ruler and then add the 1/16″.

  • #1 4/8″ + 1/16″
  • #2 5/8″ + 1/16+
  • #3 6/8″ + 1/16″
  • #4 7/8″ + 1/16″

I used the next to the largest stitched rectangle to cut the Basic Black background. The frame was cut from the Rainbow Glimmer paper by nesting the third largest die inside the next larger die. I placed #2 and #4 circle dies inside the rectangles to conserve paper.

Supplies Used for the Stunning Shimmery Halloween Card

  • Basic Black Cardstock – 4 3/4″ x 3 1/2″

  • Black Glitter Paper – 4″ x 2″
