Pop-up Unicorn


Grá O'Neill - Paper Learning Curve - Pop Up Card - Lawn Fawn Critters Ever After; The Greeting Farm Magical Friends; Paper Smooches Spectrum; Concord & 9th Sophisticated Script; Papermania Numbers, Tim Holtz Handwritten Celebrate; Lawn Fawn Hearts; Spellbinders Stars

I've been playing along with Kathy Racoosin of The Daily Marker for the 30 Day Colouring Challenge and wanted to put some of my pieces together on a card. This is one of my favourite types of card. I love pop-ups, how they change from the flat 2D envelope form to their glorious 3D box shape. I've watercoloured all the stamps, shapes and diecuts with distress markers and heat embossed Elodie and the number two in gold. Acetate strips anchor all the elements in place and provide a little movement to the card.
