Good morning,
I love making special Christmas cards the parents but I think this year I outside myself for the In-laws!
I found a tutorial on YouTube for an Exploding Pop-up card that just had to make …
The card itself is not overtly complicated but the folds can be fussy when trying to manipulate but seriously worth the effort when done!
Edith did an amazing job teaching how to make this card and I will definitely be making this card again.
*** Sorry about the photo quality - I just could not seem to get a really good picture of the card before I had to gift it.

Wonderful card - I'm so impressed with the complicated fold! Beautiful front too with the dp and the holly. Thanks so much for joining us at Peace on Earth!
ReplyDeleteStunning card Cara. That isn't a fold that I have come across before so I'm definitely going to check out that tutorial.
