Hello there,
unfortunately I was going to be away for my Dad's birthday this year and so I wanted to do something special for him. Luckily this week's Just Add Ink challenge was just perfect to inspire a masculine card. This week we have an inspiration challenge for you from Di. Here's the picture - you can choose the colours, the textures, patterns and use those to inspire your project.
Here's what I came up with.
The inside with a surprise!
A close up of the inside to show the pop up
The inside pop up element is actually pretty simple - just cut a piece of acetate big enough for your letters and secure it in the centre fold by adhering to small bits of scored cardstock (to match base colour - as you can see it blends in very well) and then adhere those to the base.
I'm pretty sure this will make Dad smile :) The rest of the DT have some great inspiration projects. So please do go check them out!
Thanks for visiting,
Kim
