Couture Creations Sea Breeze Pop Up Card

#couturecreationsaus #ultimatecrafts

Hi Everyone, it's Bridget here with a 3D pop up card for you today for the

Couture Creations Design Team.

Using the Sea Breeze collection designed by Denise Boddey for

Couture Creations and Ultimate Crafts

Cut a 12" x 12" Charming cardstock at 8.5" x 12" or 21.5cm x 30cm.

Score at 2 3/4", 5 1/2", 8 1/4" and 11" or 7cm, 14cm, 21 cm and 28cm.

Turn and score at 2 3/4" or 7cm.

Cut off a 2" x 12" or 5cm x 30cm piece off the bottom and set aside

Cut up to the score line on 3 scored lines and on the last line cut and angle up as shown.

From the 6" x 6" paper pad cut out 2 x 6.5cm x16cm or 2 1/2 x 61/2 inch pieces

6 x 6.5cm or 2 1/2 inch squares

4 x 3 1/2" x 2 1/5" or 6.5cm x 9cm rectangle pieces

Taking one of the 6.5 x 16cm pieces adhere with double sided tape to the flap at the edge and close the box by adhering the tab to the other side to form a box. Adhere the second piece of the same size to the back of that piece. Adhere the rest of the cut out pieces from the paper pad as shown.

Take the 2" x 12" or 5cm x 30cm piece that was set aside earlier, cut into 1" pieces,

adhere double sided tape to the folded edges.

On the first piece adhere the smallest shell pieces from the Diecut Ephemera self adhesive set, turn over and put talcum powder over the exposed pieces to make the top part of the self adhesive non adhesive so they don't stick to other parts of the card when closed.

Repeat with the larger size shells to a second piece.

You can choose to put 2 or 3 pieces inside the box, I chose to add 2 sections.

Adhere the Sea Breeze sentiment frm the Diecut Ephemera set to the back flap and

take a piece of white netting and adhere it to the front of the box and over the back.
