Swing out Pop up card- Creative Creases Challenge #78

 This unique card fold highlights the Flowering Zinnia DSP. It is a fold I learned from one of owners of the “Scrap Chicks” Scrapbooking & Papercrafter’s Supply Store in Manitoba, Canada. I'm not sure what to call it other than a Swing out Pop Up Card.

It took me 3 tries but I finally got it. 

I am submitting this card to the Creative Creases #78 Anything Goes


This is the front of the card. The card base is a 24 by 16 cm piece of Berry Burst cardstock folded in half at 12cm. I adhered a piece of Flowering Zinnia DSP as well as a Basic White die cut made with the retired Scallop Contour die.

A ribbon and a die cut sentiment and the front was done.

The magic comes when you open the card.


There are 2 panels attached to hinges, and when the card is opened, both the panels swing out to reveal another 'secret' area of the card. There is a small panel, and a larger panel. A Basic White Scallop contour die cut is added over DSP on the larger of the swing out panels. A different pattern is added to the smaller panels after which I add a triangular piece of another pattern to form a pocket.
In the pocket are two tags.  Strips of left over DSP cover both tags after which I embossed them with the Texture Embossing Folder.

The floral embellishments were fussy cut from the DSP as I had not received the stamp and die set yet.

This shows the card opened almost all the way.




The card is opened all the way.
