JAI#154 - Just Add Pop-Up Cards

TGIF ~

I had a rather rotten start to my week.  I managed to pick up a vicious tummy bug and spent two days sprawled on my bathroom floor.  Just as I started to recover Gorgeous Kid got a dose.  Needless to say food is still a dirty word in our house.

Delys chose our challenge over at Just Add Ink this week and it's pop-up cards! Because I was not at all prepared to lose a few days I had to make my card while I was still recovering.  As such it's fairly CAS (which is what I tend to do more these days anyway).



I made a spiral for the inside and attached some butterflies.

 

Sorry it's not more exciting.  You can see I was feeling pretty crud and it was so hard to get inspired and come up with something totally cool and awesome.  I'll do better next challenge for sure.


The Royal Canberra Show is on this weekend so I'm thinking I might take GK and show him a fun time after our yukky sick days.  Plus we've got a very special first birthday party to go to for twins - double the fun!!!  It's going to be a good weekend.  Hope yours is too.

Thanks for stopping in, lovely that you did.

    This is a beautiful card and I adore the colour combo!

    I'm glad you're feeling a little better and your plans this weekend sound lovely.

    ps I can't believe the twins are one already.

    Patrice I love the subtle colours on this pop-up card and those butterflies just seem to fly right off your card. Have a lovely weekend.

    This is beautiful, Patrice! It is a lovely, special card - wish I could create something like that when I'm feeling 'blah'. Hope you're both much better now. xx

    Considering how crappy you were feeling, it so doesn't show! It's pretty and CAS and that spiral of butterflies is the perfect pop up addition!
    I hope you and GK are up and about by now and feeling much better. xxx

    Beautiful card!
    I'm curious, what stamp did you use for the leaves on the front?
