Over The Moon - Pop Out Panel Card


Good Morning! Today's card is another Pop Out Panel card. I had so much fun creating the one I made last week that I had to make some more :o) 

You can see my Daisy Lane one HERE and there will be another one next Monday :o)


Over The Moon is one of my favourite stamp sets in the Annual Catalogue ... I love it! The images make me smile and are so cute!

I did just a little masking with the Stamparatus for the front of the card so it looks like the standing Cows are behind the one laying down :o)


The WoW factor is really the inside! I love these panels! The one under the sentiment was created by stamping with scrap bits of rubber to make it look like Cow patches.

The background paper is from the retired 6" Neutrals stack. We still sell these but the designs have now changed. I have linked the new one below.


I created the panels so that they would stay raised in the centre even if the card is laid flat. This stops the centre score line folding the wrong way and stopping the panels popping up.

NOTE: if you are in the US or use 8½" x 11" as your standard card and want to recreate this card you will need to bear a couple of things in mind .....

Each panel measures 2¾" across with the scalloped layer underneath. This is the same width as each section on the strip you glue the panels to, so I think they will probably be too wide. You could leave the Pool Party scalloped layers off and just use the white panels. Or .... you could use the Oval Stitched Shapes framelits together with the Layering Ovals. Or .... you could cut your base card and strip from 12" cardstock instead - if you did this your scoring for the strip would be 3", 6"  and 9" and not what I tell you in the Video below. I hope that helps :o)


This is the back of the card ... lots of room to write a message :o)

If you would like to see how I make this type of card, here is the Video ... I used smaller panels here so there isn't an issue with the size of them for the US :)

Box to hold a Standard Card - using Daisy Lane - Video Tutorial


Have you ever created a beautiful card .... maybe a fancy fold, or a card with many layers and dimension .... and you didn't want to crush it inside an envelope? Well .... why not create a box to put it in instead? Today's Video shows you how :o)

This Box was designed to hold a standard sized card .... one created using half a sheet of cardstock - either A4 or 8½" x 11" - I give you the sizes for both :o)

I created the Box to hold the card I created HERE. It's quick and simple to create and you could decorate it to match your own card.


I used the lovely Daisy Lane stamp set with the coordinating punches and a couple of my favourite embossing folders to decorate mine.

Here is the Video ...



Measurements

Note: Generally when I use the Simply Score Board I work in inches. I tend to switch to metric once I start decorating and adding layers. This is because I use A4 cardstock and it's just easier for me to work with centimetres. Where possible I will always try to give measurements in inches throughout for those working with 8½" x 11" cardstock. 

Old Olive  (Base)                          
7½"  x  5¾"                        (US 7⅛"  x  5⅞")

Old Olive  (Lid)                            7 9/16"  x  5 13/16"         (US 7 3/16"  x  5 15/16")


Score both pieces at ¾"  on all sides.

Pumpkin Pie                               14.8cm  x  10.5cm             (US 5½"  x  4¼")

Old Olive                                    14.8cm  x  5.4cm               (US 5½"  x  2")

Whisper White                           14.8cm  x  5cm                  (US 5½"  x  2")

You will also need more Whisper White cardstock for the stamping.
