Today, I have the privilege to share a tutorial I did for Splitcoastampers. It went live today, so I'm able to share it with you now. It's a Standing Pop-Up Card.
I have made a Fall version of this fun fold card before, and you can find it HERE. Since we're all trying to get out Christmas projects done, I thought this would be a good time to give you some inspiration for them with my Christmas version of the fun fold.
My Christmas version features items from the Whimsy & Wonder Suite in the Stampin' Up! July - December Mini Catalog. I used the Whimsical Trees Bundle, which includes the stamp set and the Christmas Trees Dies. The bundle is a great deal, because you save 10% off the price of purchasing them separately. I also used the GORGEOUS Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). I absolutely LOVE this DSP! The silver foil and color combo really makes this paper special.
Of course, I had to add some bling to those beautiful trees! I used the versatile Rhinestone Basic Jewels from the Stampin' Up! 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Notice the embossing on the Basic White layer? It was done using the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders in the same annual catalog.
The back of the card is decorated, too. It's where the sentiment goes, and it's where you can sign your name. I colored the images in with Stampin' Blends.
