Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!
Hi everyone! Aimee here. Lost Coast Designs is hosting an Animal Theme Challenge for September. This fun pop-up card features the new stamp Polly Parrot. Scroll to the end of this post to see a video of the card in action.
Making a pop-up card is much easier than you might think. The trick is a small,folded piece of cardstock with two cuts. This becomes the base of the cut out stamped image which allows it to fold down then pop up when opened.
I recommend using cardstock with a fun print on both sides as your card base, then cutting a smaller piece of white cardstock to fit inside that you'll decorate as a backdrop to your pop-up image. I love the Brush Strokes stamps for creating background patterns.
Choose a larger size stamp when making a pop-up card--it will make the biggest impact when opened. The Polly Parrot stamp is a great choice. Those spread wings just scream "Look at me!"
Add a sentiment from the Party Words stamp sheet and your card is ready to go! Kids and adults alike will love the pop-up surprise when they open this card.
Now it's time for YOU to create something with an animal stamp! Post to the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity for your chance to win September's prize.
