Floral & Butterfly Pop-Up Card – Crafty Meraki

Hello, crafty friends and happy Wednesday!! I have a beautiful pop-up box featuring the Magic Maker Pop-Up Box DiesRose Artisan Flora DiesLuna DiesHello Meraki Moments Dies and the Watercolor Whimsy Paper Pack from Crafty Meraki!!

I began by die-cutting the Rose Artisan Floral Dies and the Luna Dies from white cardstock. The body of the butterfly was cut from dark gray cardstock. I added shading using shades of light pink and green inks, then adhered all the pieces together using liquid glue. I die-cut extra layers for the leaves from heavyweight white cardstock and adhered them behind the colored ones to make them more sturdy.

Next, I die-cut the main parts of the Magic Maker Pop-Up Box Die Set from green cardstock and the scalloped accent pieces from the rose floral paper in the Watercolor Whimsy Paper Pad. I adhered the box together and added the “bridges” with liquid glue. The butterfly was adhered to the back of the box, while the roses and leaves were adhered to the “bridge” cross pieces.

The top layer of the sentiment was die-cut from the same pattern paper in the Watercolor Whimsy Paper Pack using the Hello Meraki Moments Die Set. The middle layer was cut from white cardstock and the bottom layer from vellum. I blended the same pink inks onto the middle layer and adhered them all together, then added them to the front of the box. 

This folds flat for mailing!! How cool is that?!?

That’s it for me today!! Thanks so much for stopping by!!
