Greatest Birthday

Hello everyone! It's Berina here with a card today using the lovely Big Top stamp set.

And when you open it, surprise!

The circus animals pops up when you open the card. Here's how I made this card. I stamped all the images and colored them with Copics and Stylefile Markers. I fussy cut all the images and colored the edges with a black marker. For the card front , I embossed a panel of white card stock of size 3 3/4" x 5" with the Floral Burst embossing folder. I adhered it on to a red card stock panel of size 4" x 5 1/4". I then adhered it on to a blue card stock and adhered it to the card base. I cut the sentiment and matted it with red card stock. I adhered the sentiment and the image with foam tape.

For the inside of the card, I took strips of card stock. I used scraps leftover from previous cards. 

Score the card stock strip in 3 places like shown in the pic.

Then I adhered the animals on to the strips and then adhered the strips on the inside of the card. It was a bit tricky to position them correctly. But it gets better with practice, I promise :)

Here's how it looks after adhering all the animals. It was really fun making an interactive card and it's easy too!

Hope you liked my card today. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.

Thank you Elaine :) I don’t have the exact measurements, but I scored at around 3/4" at both the ends and middle scor line depends on where exactly you want to place the pop-up element. For the elephant, the middle score line is about 1 3/4". Hope that helps.

Love this card! Could you give the dimensions and where you scored the strips? Awesome coloring job. Wish I could do as well!
