Thanks to Sam Calcott UK — Mixed Up Crafts– for this project. It’s a clever flower bouquet pop-up card that doesn’t need any fancy dies except for those needed for embellishments.

Here I present three versions using Stampin’ Up! products for Mother’s Day and as a Congratulatory Card.

I have also produced a VIDEO TUTORIAL with step-by-step directions.

Mother’s Day Card

Create the card front by laying DSP strips and adding DIE CUT lettering using the AMAZING THANKS Dies. DSP strips should coordinate with inside blossoms.
Non-directional DSP from the SUNSHINE & RAINBOWS 6×6″ DSP pack from Sale-a-brations. Here is use the Medium DAISY Punch for my flower centers. I tried to add a glitter center…but the centers were difficult to glue so I don’t recommend it. Sentiment from the DAFFODIL DAYDREAMS stamp set.

Congratulations Card

This is a special card made for a family member who is getting their degree this spring! I wanted something special that she wouldn’t expect since she is very familiar with my work and receives lots of my cards.

DSP is from the SUNSHINE & RAINBOWS DSP with GOLD FOIL layering and embellishments from the ABSTRACT BEAUTY EPHEMERA PACK. Just added some GENIAL GEMS as accents. AMAZING THANKS DIES for sentiment.
Just love the bright colors of Calypso Coral and Melon Mambo for the blossoms. All the cards used the BOUQUET OF LOVE Embossing Folder.

Another Mother’s Day Card

Here’s an idea you can adapt to any card front. I love the playful directions with the horizontal, vertical, and diagonal patterns crated with the ribbon.
I decided to try another DSP pattern using the FRIENDLY HELLO and colored cardstock for the inside embossed layer with POOL PARTY.
