We’re making a pop-up window card that’s easier than it looks with @evas.giftionery . Grab your supplies (or bookmark for the future), and let’s make something beautiful!

✂️ Supply List:
• Ocean Blue - Keepsake Collection
• Ocean Blue Keepsake Metal Dies (for all those gorgeous finishing touches!)
• Kraft cardstock
• Embellishments

Part 1 – Making the Card Base

Cut a piece of Kraft cardstock to 8.5” × 5”.

Now score it at: 4”, 8”

This creates sections measuring:

4”, 4”, 0.5”

The tiny 0.5” flap is going to be our little helper later, so don’t cut it off, it has an important job!

Next, cut a window measuring approximately 3.5” × 2.5” in the front panel. You can either use a paper cutter with a craft knife or your favourite rectangle die.

Once that’s done, fold your score lines: First fold: Valley Fold, Second fold: Mountain Fold

Give everything a nice burnish so your folds stay crisp.

Part 2 – Creating the Second Section

Now cut another piece of Kraft cardstock measuring 8” × 5”.

Repeat exactly the same process except this time there’s no extra flap because Part 1 already has one.

Once both pieces are ready, glue the 0.5” tab from Part 1 onto Part 2 to create one long card base.

Now comes my favourite part...

Decorate both sections using your favourite papers from the Ocean Blue Keepsake Collection.

Mix your patterns, layer them up, and don’t be afraid to combine different blues. After all... the ocean has thousands of shades, so why should our card stop at one?

Part 3 – Making the Pop-Up Mechanism

Now for the fun magic!

Cut Kraft cardstock to:

9.5” × 3.25”

Score at: 0.5”, 1.5”, 4.75”, 8”, 9”

This gives you the following sections:

0.5”, 1”, 3.25”, 3.25”, 1”, 0.5”

Before folding, cover everything except the first and last 0.5” tabs with your chosen pattern papers.

Now fold the mechanism in this order:

Mountain Fold, Mountain Fold, Valley Fold, Mountain Fold, Mountain Fold

Congratulations!

You’ve just made the pop-up mechanism!

Attach the two outside tabs to the inside of your card, making sure everything lines up neatly. Once you close and reope taken in Graphic 45 by @graphic45
