Pop-Up Card in a Box

Have you seen these pop-up cards called Card in a Box or Pop-Up Box Card?  When Splitcoaststampers came out with a tutorial, both my daughter and I said, "Oh cool!"  I followed their tutorial to create one for the Valentine's class.

You can go absolutely crazy with adding details to this lovely card.  I cut it a little short in the consideration of time for class.

Here is the box closed.  It measures 5-1/2 x 6-1/2".  It would be interesting to create a box with a standard A2 card size.

Here's the card partially open.

And a close-up on details.

Stamps: Follow My Heart, Hearts A Flutter; Paper: Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal Cabana, Real Red, Very Vanilla, Retro Fresh DSP; Ink: Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal Cabana, Real Red, Baked Brown Sugar; Accessories: White baker's twine, Cherry Cobbler seam binding, Rhinestone jewels, Banner punch (coming soon during Sale-a-bration), Adorning Accents EF, Fashionable Hearts embosslits, Apothecary Accents framelits, Hearts A Flutter framelits, Big Shot, Dimensionals.

The stars of this card are Follow My Heart and Hearts A Flutter stamp sets.  Follow My Heart is only available until January 27, so if you love it, don't delay.

Follow My Heart (#134614)

Hearts A Flutter (#129252)

Heidi, what a FUN project! I really like the semi non-traditional V-day colors and I'll bet you both had a blast working on this. Good grief, Valentine's Day is right around the corner :/
