A Scandi Christmas A5 Pop Up Card by Lisa Bird

 

Here is a tutorial on how to make this A5 pop up card.
I have used ‘A Scandi Christmas’ digital download collection from The Crafty Witches.

You will need :

Choose and print two patterned papers, one topper sheet and one sentiment sheet.
Then choose and print an insert at 65%.

Card Base:

Trim the A5 landscape card front to measure 10 cms.
Then score and fold at 5 cms.

 

Next using the white card cut three pieces of card:

1 : 11 cms by 15 cms, score and fold at 4 cms, 9 cms and 13 cms.

2 : 9 cms by 13 cms, score and fold at 3 cms, 8 cms and 11 cms.

Matt and layer together and attach to the inside of the A5 card base.

Layer four:
Using card piece number 1, attach the left side to the inside fold of the A5 card base and the right side to the flat part of the card base.

Using card piece number 2, attach the left side to the 1st card piece and the right side to the flat part of the card base.

Then using card piece number 3, attach the left side to the 2nd card piece and the right side to the flat part of the card base.

Then using white card make a matt layer for a sentiment and attach to the card base using foam pads.
