Pop Up Cake Card |
Dear friends,I know you have heard this many times...
I love Pop Up cards! I enjoy spending hours designing pop up cards but of late I have found its equally enjoyable taking a short cut and making pop up cards using my favorite
Pop up die designer
Karen Burniston's dies [earlier creations "
Spinning Pop Up Ball Card and
Pop Up Accordion Die Projects]

The
pop up cake can be made without using dies and if you google up you will find a couple of tutorials but needless to say I found it much easier to make with Karen's die[ a Sizzix one].
I am still not completely over the "blue and white " phase courtesy all the crafts we did for my daughter's Frozen theme birthday celebration and hence all the white and blue inked parchment and vellum flowers. Since I dont have any tutorial
sharing a few crafty tips!

Parchment Flowers |
Tip 1 : You need not always match the colors of your floral embellishments to your background .Here the stripes on my stamped and heat embossed flowers [
Heartfelt creations sun kissed fleur stamp -die set] match the striped flowers in the background pattern paper [ DCWV].
Those little pink centers on my flowers are not fancy beads but
thermocol balls!

Parchment Flowers |
Tip 2: I found flowers stamped and heat embossed on the thinner
vellum more pliable [ the blue one you see above is a vellum flower] while the white parchment flowers retained the convex shape I embossed on the petals despite being squashed flat on closing the pop up card!
So if you want your handmade flowers to retain their shape opt for
parchment paper instead of
vellum .
