Dainty Delights Acetate Pop-Up Card

Spread the love!

Here’s a perfect card for all occasions — plus as a POP-UP — it really has the WOW factor!

My video tutorial as featured on my Youtube Channel is more lengthy than my other videos due to the detailed nature of this project and some of the extra tips (coloring & shaping) demonstrated to enhance your paper crafting skills. It also features assembling using the RAIN OR SHINE DSP project (final project posted below).

Make use of the CHAPTER TIMES (in the Description Box of the YOUTUBE project) to allow you to go back and refer to any portions when creating your own card. Hope you find this feature useful! If so, please LIKE and leave a comment!

Once you watch my tutorial using the Dainty Delights BUNDLE and the DAINTY FLOWERS DSP (a FREE product offering under SALE-A-BRATIONS) — you can find additional products on my ONLINE store (link below).

This project was adapted from Sam Calcott of Mixed Up Crafts.


Featured Project

Begin with a base card of Basic White card stock and layer the front with Old Olive and Dainty Flowers DSP.
Use the Dainty Delight DIES and Medium Daisy punch for cutting the flower pieces. Color with SPONGE DAUBERs to add depth and use the SIZZIX Shaping Kit to create a 3D flower effect.
Acetate (re-purposed from the Photopolymer Stamp Sets or purchased from me — WINDOW SHEETS) is used to create a clear layer and enhance the flowered background. Silver Foil creates the “hardware detail” on the platform. Every aspect of this project is special — including the inside of the popup card — by using the coordinating DSP.

More Inspiration

As demonstrated in my Video, here is the final project using the RAIN or SHINE DSP and PLAYING IN THE RAIN BUNDLE. I embellished the card using daisies from the Dainty Delight bundle, the sentiment is from the CONVERSATIONS BUBBLES. Brass Butterflies fly aloft with the kite (adhered by a mini-wobble). Really a fun birthday card!
