Drop Down And Pop Up

September 9th, 2015 by Shirl - Posted in Class Makes, Graphic 45

Class makes are part and parcel of my weekends plus the girls are all so experienced now that each week becomes a challenge of what to make for them.

The challenge is the best part and what I love most about this card was the working out of the gatefold and how to incorporate the die and a pop out element.

I chose the Distressed Doily die to form the edges and some very pretty digital images to adorn the card.

The card opens to reveal the gorgeous G45 stamp which was stamped onto cream cardstock then cut out.

The inside drops open to reveal a pop out element where we added a couple of digi vintage postcards.  The frame was die cut then placed over one of the images.

The girls all love to fussy cut so I printed more digi ladies onto cardstock for them to cut out and add to the back of the card.

Everything closes flat for posting and fits perfectly into a 6″ x 6″ envelope.

    Absolutely charming, Shirl – the delicate feminine prints and doily cut-outs are just perfect for that G45 lady – so pretty!

    Very pretty, feminine and Vintage! Lovely colours and stamps. As to the construction… this would give me a headache but it’s absolutely worth it, your girls have they work cut out but they will be proud at the end!

    Hi Shirley. This has so many eye-catching elements….I love the drop down, pop-out surprises! It looked good with the gatefold detail, but the rest is the icing on the cake. Your girls are so lucky!!!

    Love this card the gate fold with the drop down and pop out so unexpected. Lovely colours and images as well , I think I’ll have to case it sometime if you don’t mind.
