Hey everybody! Well, another Thursday has rolled around and it’s almost Friday again! I hope you have something fun planned this weekend! I’ve popped in this morning with a Pajama Crafter Stamps project to share created with the super fun Prickley Pear Stamps Holly Jolly Christmas stamp set. As mentioned in my previous posts, I have quite a few Pajama Crafter Stamps projects to share that I created prior to leaving the team at the end of February and hadn’t yet showcased. This pop up window card is one I’ve never seen before, and I cannot remember where I saw it. But it’s super easy – an aperture of any shape is cut into the front flap, the die cut shape is reserved to use for the focal image, and a pop up mechanism (simple four-sided box) is added to the top back of the focal image so it stands up when the card is opened. Poof – you have a super cute fun fold!
I cut the card base from Cougar Smooth White cardstock along with two layering panels and a strip from patterned papers in the Simple Stories The Little Things 12×12 Collection Kit. I used a die from the Keep It Simple Stitched Ovals Nested Dies to cut an oval aperture into the front flap. I stamped a snowman from the Prickley Pear Stamps Holly Jolly Christmas stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the oval die cut and colored it with alcohol markers. I added a simple four-sided box pop-up mechanism to the top back of the image and adhered it back into the negative space on the card front. I added several green gemstones and a sentiment (from the same stamp set), which completed the card.
