Well, another online find. I was visiting the blog: Capadia Designs. She posted about a Gate Fold Pop-Up Card that she had seen on a video!! :) I looked through her tutorial and decided that I would try an Aperture Card in the middle instead of a solid image.
=========================
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the results!! I'm planning on sending this card to my friend, Sharri. Good thing, too....... I don't know too many women that spell their name like that! :) :)
========================
I did all of the cutting with my Cricut (designed the cuts in Inkscape) and my new little Mini Scor It was quite helpful with the folds!! :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHARRI!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the great inspiration, Diane!!! :)

Very cool! Diane is the best, isn't she!?! Good for you for giving credit where it is due and inspiring us with your creation!
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know about your post and sharing your take on the card - great idea to use the aperture name cut for the insert!
ReplyDeleteI also like the colors you chose. Happy Birthday to Sharri!
Thought I'd see what you've been up to. What fun to see "my" card! You are as creative as you were 40(!) years ago in 1st grade...just a little better with scissors and glue!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fun, personalized card...when it came in the mail (along with one from Wendy) it made my day!
