Multiple Spinning Love Card Tutorial

As requested by many lovely you I decided to post the tutorial here, if you are looking for the tutorial for the following card you've came to the right place! Hope you guys find it helpful. Happy Crafting and thank you so much for the love/comment you left for my card! :)

Directions:

Step 1: Cut nesting heart shapes on adhesive foams, starting from the third dies of the set and in pair work all the way to the smallest die (two copies per pair). Decorate it with red cardstock hearts.

Step 2: Using the largest heart die, cut shape on the card base and both the red cardstock and decorative paper.

Step 3: Adhere the red cardstock on the card base and apply double-sided foam tapes all around the red cardstock. Cut a thread that is 5 ¾” long and stick onto the foam tapes.

Step 4: Arrange the base for each size of shape behind the thread as shown above, stick the matching shapes to the base (sandwiching the thread).

Step 5: Stick decorative papers to the front of card base and inside card, finish card by adhering stamped sentiment to the card.

3D Double-Sided Pop-Up Card With Tutorial

Made this awhile back with detailed step-by-step instructions to create this pop-up card. I doubled the fun by adding pop-up elements on both sides of the card. Check out the following pictures to see what I mean! When the card is open it can sit on the wide base, perfect for mantelpiece display.

It's like glueing two separate pop-up cards together and since it's thicker than it usually is, I had to make a card "box" instead of using the regular envelope. If the box is sturdy enough, it can even be mailed as it is. I think it would look very cute.

Directions:

Step 1: Prepare two construction cardstocks size 5 ¼" x 10", score and fold in half.

Step 2: Make two small cuts (about 1" long each) along the folded line (as shown in picture above). Fold inward to form the pop-up base for the card, as illustrated in third picture above. Do the same to the other construction cardstock.

Step 3: Prepare all the cut-out pieces to be used as decorations. These mixed media dies can be cut on different mediums such as (chipboard, foam felt and so on). 

Step 4: Color the foam flowers (if preferred) with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers.

Step 5: Prepare the patterned paper for the card base, trim paper accordingly to accommodate the 3D pop-up piece. Adhere the patterned papers to the card base and start embellishing the card as desired.

 

Step 6: Connect two finished pop-up cards together with double-sided tapes. 

                                            

                           

Step 7: Decorate the outside of the card with patterned paper.

 

Step 8: Make the envelope box for the 3D pop-up card using the measurement in picture above.  Embellish the box with butterfly shape cut-out and ribbon.

 

Remove the card from the envelope box and a back-to-back pop-up card will be revealed
