Pop Up Flip Card

 This is a stamp set I got right at the beginning of my crafting journey and one that I have used for my husband before. However this time it is taking on a father's day theme. My son and husband are just like the same person, it is so strange to watch and they both egg each other on to sneak out and get secret fast food. However neither can hold their own water and rat the other one out with in the day! It therefore felt like the perfect stamp set to use for my husband from my son.

The pop & flip fold looks great both opened and closed and I gave it a little Inky Inspiration adaption by making it a double flip & pop panel

If you want clear instructions on how to create this, watch my YouTube video, I have however tried to catch the instructions in words also

Card Making Instructions

I begun with a sheet of A4 which I trimmed on the long edge to 11 inch and scored and folded at 5 1/2. Patterned paper measuring 5 1/4 by 8 inch was cut (x3). This was adhered onto the card front and the inside cover.


On a sepertate piece of scrap paper. I cut out my two rectangles leaving a 5/8th inch gap from the sides and the top (tent fold). This created my template which was laid over the card base and used with the same rectangle die to cut the 2 pop holes



Four frames were cut in black card and adhered around the rectangles just cut. I used a black marker to tidy up the white card within the windows edges


The images were stamped onto white alcohol friendly marker card and cut using a smaller rectangle die than used to cut the windows.  The images were coloured and mounted onto red card cut using the same die as the windows. The pop up mechanisms were created by cutting a sheet of card 4 inch by 1 1/2 inch. This was scored and folded at 1,2 and 3 inch. Before being folded in half and glued either side of the inside of the fold line.


A smaller piece measuring 2 inch by 1/2 inch was folded at the 1 inch marker and glued on 1 side only, with the fold facing the bottom of the card directly in the middle of the mechanism you have just secured


The images were then glued onto this little tab


The outside sentiment was stamped onto red card and mounted onto silver mirror card, before being glued onto the panel


The sentiments inside were heat embossed onto red before being mounted onto black and silver. The stars were die cut and added using foam tape and the sentiment banner was also given dimension using foam tape


The 3 patterned papers were then decorated using the nuvo drops. Ensure you allow one panel to dry before you open for the next one
