While this time of year is always busy, I love pausing to add some hand crafted goodness to my end of year teacher gifts. I’ll have several ideas for you over the next week or so – so stay tuned.
I love challenging myself to come up with new ideas with my ScanNCut (I am a paid consultant for Brother, but all ideas and opinions are my own) and I love when I’m asked to try something I don’t usually do. On this particular occasion, it was a pop-up card, and I have one version to share with you here today.
Here is a link to my YouTube tutorial.
Utilizing a combination of stickers and die cut shapes I just love how this turned out.
I am also really loving how I was able to use patterned paper inside the card, but use the ScanNCut to make just the right sized space to write a note to this teacher heading into retirement.
Putting more energy into the middle and making the front a closure was a lot of fun, and I’m loving the idea of a surprise inside. Be sure to keep an eye on scanncut.com – since I’ll have a tutorial going up for a different card soon, and they’ve got tons of videos and PDF tutorials all the time. In fact I’ve got a new spring bouquet one up now here.
Love it !!! I really like the part where you can write the note inside, that is so awesome !
So much to love here! Use the same or coordinating papers, put a slider or use twine to close the card, cut around a sticker so you can add it to the popup, then add stickers to the die cuts you made. i thought the pop-up card would be too hard to make, but you’ve inspired me. (I have downloaded lots of scan n cut ideas from the website and I always get a kick out of seeing the ones that you’ve created!)
That is so cool – I didn’t know that they had all those designs on the website!
I had a friend over yesterday and we looked at lots of your Scan n Cut videos as I was helping her figure something out.
We have a question … on the “pattern” screen, there is a freeform shape … how do you use that?
I really love your button jar dish! So cute
