This card has been designed for my daughter. I had originally planned to give her the stadium wave card I did a few weeks back but she saw it in my craft room and so it had lost its wow factor. This card started out as a pillar card but it just sort of developed when I remembered a video a saw a few years back on a reverse card. I will link the original video at the bottom
There is a video up on YouTube channel showing the process

Card Making Instructions
Begin with a sheet of card measuring 8 3/4 by 6 inch. With the 6 inch at the top score at 1/2 inch.
Spin it back around so the score line is at the top and score up to the 1/2 inch scored line at 2 1/4 and 6 1/2.
Cut away the 2 corners you have just scored, see video for clarity
Take a second piece of card measuring 6 x 4 1/4 inch and with the 6 inch at the top score at 1/2 inch
To create the white strips you need a sheet of card measuring 3 by 10 3/4 inch.
Score this at 1/2, 1, 2 1/2, 3, 7 3/4, 8 1/4, 9 3/4 and 10 1/4
These then need cutting into 1/2 inch strips.
Fold mountain, valley, valley, mountain, valley, mountain, mountain and a valley
Bring you card base back onto the score board with the tab that you created at the top and really lightly score at 1/4, 2, 6 3/4 and 10 1/2. These are to be used as a guide only
Glue the white strip so that it lines up with the top of the card and the score lines. (Please check out the video for clarity)
Lay a strip so that it butts up to the one glued down and then glue another one down
Continue until you get to the bottom. Ensure that the bottom one is in line with the bottom of the card
Acetate was cut into 4 panels measuring 3 inch by 1/2 inch. Fold over the tab so that it is laid onto the white and glue these so they are in line with the score line but facing down the card (see video for clarity)
The ballon dies were cut from the Papercraft society box 10. The tab was folded back up so the strips are now above the card and the balloons glued onto the acetate strips ensuring that they do not come down any lower than the score line (see video for clarity)
The banners from box 10 and the Heffy doodle sentiment die were added to the card front.
An acetate panel was adhered onto the bottom white strip measuring 1/2 by 5 inch and the letters from the Alphabetters die was adhered onto this.
The card panels were then decorated using stamps and dies from both box 10 and box 53
The card was then turned over and the small purple panel was adhered over the pop up strips
A piece was white measuring 5 1/2 by 4 was cut along with the letters to write ‘flip me over’ these were adhered onto the flap and finished with nuvo drops in apple green
