Pop Up turorial

I have  had quite a few of my  blogger girls  want  the directions for this pop up so I thought Why not  do a tutorial  for you all on it .. ok  you will need   your cutter , bone folder , sticky strip  and of course  card stock and  a  stamp set to  decorate . and  I used  white gg ribbon with mine today so if you may want  that also :-). Remember you can click on any  photo and  view larger . Also  I have added the  quick link  to this turorial under  Dawns  Turorials  on the left hand side  for future  use .

ok  you will cut your  base card for your pop up at 4 1/4 X 11"  you will score  at one end as shown in photo at 1", 2 3/4 "  3 3/4"  and then at 5 1/2"   

Then  flip to  score the other end the  same  way  as shown in photo #2

Next  you will  cut  your pop up slit on the 5 1/2  score line ..  I cut mine at 3 1/4 "  doesnt  really matter how big or  small you  cut this, Its totally up to you . Just DON'T  cut all the way across

Now you  will  fold all your  score lines  & also  add  your sticky strip  to both  ends where  the 1" score line is as shown in photo.  This  is also the time   to will stamp the  base  of your card . I am using the new  holiday mini  set Seaon of Joy 

Ok now measure  your  cut line and this will be your  main size   so your pop up  can slide through . Make sure to cut  smaller then the  slit  so it slides smoothly ( Dawns  Side note  for my  whisper white  pop up piece  it measures 2 3/4 X 5  1/4  the purely pomagrante  piece   to layer my whisper white onto measures 3" x 5 1/2 ) Stamp your  pop up piece  before you insert  or go to next step .

Ok now that  you have your  pop up piece  cut and stamped  you will slide  this piece  from the back side of your base card through the  cut slit  center  as shown in photo ... Make sure your  stamped images are all on the  same side   Here is a  view of what it looks like from the  back side adhere  the  center pop up piece  to one  of the  sides with sticky  strip ( Place the pop up piece right to the edge of the 1' score  line. Click to enlarge photo )   it will look like the  photo of the back side .

  Ok now  line up   both  ends   that has  sticky  strip and  adhere  together..( as shown in photo ) This will secure  the pop up and  will make it  work  when you open and closed your pop  up .

You did it ! Yahoo!!  Here this is what your card will look like  opened  up and sitting upright . To add ribbon  just feed  underneath  and wrap around to front  and tie  easy  peasy Right ?  Here is a  photo of the side view. This card  will fold  down  flat and  will fit in your standard size envelope( as shown in photo) .

Thanks girls Have a Fabulous weekend  and let me  see yours  when you  make one & post to your  blog :-) Have FUN!

until later .. Happy Stampin!
