Self Standing Outside Double Tier Pop-Up Fun Fold Cards- August 2023 Paper Pumpkin Alternative Ideas

Welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here at Creative Chelsey.

One of the most exciting aspects of crafting is experimenting with different techniques. For your alternative cards, consider incorporating fun fold designs. These types of cards instantly add an element of surprise and fun to your creations.

Today I am sharing with you two card ideas that use the large flower dies from the kit. Just like yesterday’s cards, these card share the same fun fold template. I call it an outside double tier Pop Up card. I will have a free PDF template available on my blog with scoring and cutting measurements.

If this project inspires you to create something, I would love for you to tag me in any social media post using @creativechelsey | #creativechelsey or email me at chelsey@creativechelsey.com.

1- Score the cardbase using the measurements on the template. Score with the cardbase horizontally in the paper trimmer. Measure from the left edge. Score at these measurements, 5 ½”, 6 ¼”, 7 ¾”, 8 ½”, 9”, 9 ¾”, 10 ½”.

2- Rotate the cardbase to vertical position with the score lines at the top half. Cut 1” from the right side from 0” to 3 ¼”. Flip and repeat on the opposite side.

3- Cut these side flaps at 2” from the top. To create a cardbase with this shape (see image).

4- Fold the bottom two score lines and the top two score lines of each section.

5- Cut your choice of pattern paper with the measurements on the template.

6- Start with a 4” x 5 ¼” pattern piece of paper. Cut 1 ¼" from the bottom.

7- Flip to the bottom edge to the top and measure 1” from the right side. Cut down from 0” to 2”. Repeat on the other side.

8- Flip so the bottom is at 2”. Lift cutting blade into the center between the two cut lines. Cut from 1” – 3” to remove the center square.

9- Add the pattern paper to a coordinating color cardstock (4 1/8” x 5 3/8”) with even borders along the top and sides. Leave the extra at the bottom. Add this to the front of the cardbase. If you need to add a darker piece in the center to cover up a lighter cardstock color, you can.

10- Add the 1 ¼” strip of pattern paper to the same color cardstock (1 3/8” x 4 1/8”). Add this to the 1 ½” section.

11- Add the 2” square to the same color cardstock (2” x 2 1/8”) with the same size border along the top and sides. The bottom will not fit. Place it in the center panel, with the bottom fitting above the bottom strip.

12- Add Tear & Tape to the 1/4" section at the top of each section. Fold so you see the bottom 3/4" section. 

Fold all the top panels down so you only see the pattern paper and adhere in place. See video for more details.

13- Decorate with the Large Flower Die Cut and greeting on one of the Banners. Make sure to cover the seam on the Pop Up Panel.

14- Add any Clear Enamel Dots you want.

15- On the back trim the flower description down to 4” x 5 ¼” add to a coordinating color piece 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”. Then add to the back of the card.

All Done!
