"Wow" card - Beautiful Friendship floral pop-up card



I don't often tackle fancy folds but I loved the idea of making a pop-up card using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set. What's so lovely about pop-up cards is the element of surprise – it looks like a perfectly nice but simple card on the front, then you open it and bam! You're hit by an explosion of flowers.


 Here’s a better picture but I took it before adding the greeting...




While assembling the inner floral section, keep closing the card to check your flowers don’t spill out over the edges. Not only would this spoil the element of surprise, it would prevent your card from fitting in the envelope!

  2. Are you willing to share how to make your beautiful card? I didn't even like this stamp set when I first saw it! But, because everyone has shared, I've seen the true beauty of this stamp set. Now, it's a must have! TFS!
