A Pop Up Wedding Card....

This wedding card is the last of the projects from our Pop Up Class last month.  It uses some retired DSP and retired set, but you could do this with any stamp set or Designer Series Paper.

Front is pretty, but simple...

...and the inside has the "wow" factor.  

Biggest challenge - tying those little bows!

Butterfly Pop Up Card...

Today's card is a quick and fun pop up card.  I want to put butterflies on all my pop up cards, but I usually am able to resist temptation and find something else to pop up.  This card was the exception, so of course, I gave it an put a butterfly in it.

When I focus on the inside of the card, like in a pop up technique, I usually make the front sweet and simple.  This card has a center panel with words, a die cut butterfly and some Silver Ribbon stapled on it.  

Even though the inside is fairly simple the gorgeous butterfly is the star.

Balloons three ways...

The Balloon Bouquet Punch is fabulous!  It coordinates with several of our stamp sets, but it's also great to use without a stamp.  Here are three cards made using the Balloon Bouquet Punch.

This card uses the Balloon Celebration stamp set with the punch.  

This fun pop up card uses the punch with the Balloon Builders stamp set.  

This final card uses just the punch with words from the Party with Cake and the Age Awareness stamp sets.  

Here's the inside of this fun pop up card.

Cards for baby...

I wanted to share some cute baby cards we've made at a few classes:

This is a great all purpose baby card.  Made this in our baby card class.  I used the corrugated paper, but regular Crumb Cake or Kraft card stock would work fine.  

We made this card in our pop up class.  Love it!

I really love the little outfit from the Something for Baby stamp set.  

This is another card we made at the Baby Class.  The Celebrate Today is a very versatile set and the dies are fabulous.
