Card - Box Garden

Pop-up Box Card
I decided to try my hand at a pop-up box card. Many of the cards of this style I have seen have an equal amount of box top and bottom. I wanted more space on the top to decorate, so I made my card base with a short box bottom and a tall box top. This meant that the flaps angle out nicely from the box and there was plenty space to decorate the top. I thought it would be fun to put a garden in the box and have insects and things pop up and out. For instance, the dragonfly is on a piece of acetate so it looks like it's suspended above the garden. I had fun making this card and probably filled it too full... Oh well, perhaps it is overgrown because currently we are living in a desert and it is usually pretty hot and brown.

Have a beautiful day!

Card - Smile for Coffee Friends


I made a set of 6 of these cards to give to friends. I only had 4 gold doilies so for 2 of the cards I painted a white doily, layered a die-cut heart doily over it, and then put the eyelet circle with the coffee element over that. I like the way the cards came out and hope the recipients like them.

Have a lovely day!
