Baby Elephant Pop Up Card
Check out these adorable baby elephants from the Elephant Parade stamp set and the Elephant Dies! Tahitian Tide and Parakeet Party cardstock give this card a bright fun look.
There are more cards below but first, let’s look at the basic structure of this card.
Starting with a 5-1/4″ x 8-1/4″ piece of cardstock which has been scored and folded in half.
Lay out the images you will be using (so the three elephants for this card) and measure where you will want to place them. Measure with a ruler and draw lines for the depth you want. For this card, I used a 1″ depth for the first cut, then a 1-1/4″ depth and finally and 3/4″ depth. As you play with making these cards, you will figure out where you want to place them.
Cut along the lines and fold over.
Push each of these folds to the inside.
Attach this piece to the inside of the Parakeet Party base card. (The base card for all of these cards is a regular card base – an 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of cardstock, scored @ 4-1/4″ and folded.
Decorate.
