Perennial Lavender Pop Up Planter card

Hello! I took part in a themed card swap recently, organised by the Joy Of Sets Facebook Group. The theme was a Pop Up Thank You card. I received a stunning twist and pop card from my swap partner and in return I sent this Perennial Lavender Pop Up planter card…

When you open the card the planter inside pops up…

And here’s a closer view of the planter…

I loved making this card with the Painted Lavender dies so much, that I decided to make another one using the Painted Lavender stamp set too and record a tutorial for the pop up mechanism…

I’d love you to click on the image above or if you prefer you can click here to pop over to YouTube and check out my Perennial Lavender pop up planter card. You’ll also get to see the card I received from my swap parter. If you enjoy watching my video, I’d love you to give it a thumbs up and leave me a comment too. If you haven’t already subscribed to my channel, make sure you do so when you’re there; so you don’t miss out on future videos.

Here’s the card I made in the video…

And here’s some photos of the inside of this one…

No matter which side you look at it from, there’s plenty of pretty flowers to see…

SUPPLIES

As I mentioned in the video, to start off you simply need to make your normal card base of half a sheet of card, scored and folded in half. Then you’ll want your normal sized layers. I’ve shown the measurements I’ve used for my card base here:

• Highland Heather card baase – 29 x 10.5 cm, scored & folded on the long side at 14.5 cm
• Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper
  • 2 pieces measuring 10 x 14 cm
  • 1 piece measuring 10 x 5.5 cm
• Very Vanilla card measuring 10 x 8.5 cm

Measurements for the pop up section:

• Crumb Cake card measuring 20 x 4 cm (or 8″ x 1-1/2″)
  • scored on the long side at 5, 10 and 15 cm (or 2″, 4″ and 6″)
• 2 pieces of Crumb Cake card each measuring 10 x 1.5 cm (or 4″ x 1/2″)
  • scored on the long side at 2.5 and 7.5 cm (or 1″ an 3″)

You’ll also need:

• Very Vanilla card for the 2 sentiment pieces
• Blackberry Bliss, Lost Lagoon, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape card to cut with Painted Lavender dies
• Very Vanilla scraps to stamp and die cut more flowers and foliage with the Painted Lavender dies
• a Paper Butterfly and Brushed Brass Butterflies embellishments
