Spring Floral Fox Shadow Pop-Up Frame Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello friends, 

It's been a little while since my last post. To be honest I needed a little crafting break, have been feeling a bit burnt out recently and my mojo was gone. It took me forever to decide what I was going to make to share today 😕 But thankfully once I started looking at the products from the Happy Hearts release, ideas started flowing, pheww😅 So let me tell you how this came together. And for those of you who like visuals, I will post a process Reel on my IG page.

CARD RECIPE

• Stamp out the Friendship Frame Stamp using Bee Creative Silver Metallic Ink Pad, then heat set it with silver emb. powder.
• Add a light layer of blended rainbow colors to the flowers (I used 3 atelier inks, see below in the supply list).
• Use the Friendship Frame Stencils to build the colors and add dimension to the flowers. Use the same colors as the base color to keep on building the intensity or blend the colors to create new variants.
• Die cut the floral frame using the Friendship Frame Dies.

• Die cut and piece together the fox from the Heart Hugs Dies.
• For the foxes bouquet, I stamped out the flowers from the Just for you Stamps using the same inks and embossing powder as I had done previously, and then just colored them in with Copic markers.
• I then used the Just for you coordinating dies and glued them to the fox.
• Now it was time to glue the fox to the floral frame.

• Next, I created 2 pop-up springs that I scored from a 2-inch piece of pattern paper from the Gingham Happy Hearts Paper Pad at every 1/2"inch until it folded into an "M"
• I then added double-sided tape on one side of the spring and glued it to the back of the floral frame. Next, I glued the other side of the spring to a panel I had glued onto the card base with the same paper.
• For the sentiment, that comes from the Just for you Stamps, I stamped it in Bee Creative Brilliant White Ink Pad and heat set it with white emb. pwd. I then used the Just for you Dies to cut it out and glued it to the front of the pop-up panel.
• At this point, I thought I was done, but then I thought it needed a little extra to fill in the space and that is when I added the cute little bees from the Bee Hive.

• To add extra dimension and make the bees look like they were hovering above the frame I cut thin strips of acetate and on one end I created a "Z" fold. 
• I then glued the bees to the top of the Z fold and then attached the otherend of the acetate to the inside of the floral frame (see image above and below).
• To finish this card off, I added Happy Hearts Gem Stickers to the center of the flowers and added white gel pen highlights. (This last step might have been easier to do if I had thought about it before I assembled the pop-up frame).

• As you can see despite all the dimension, the card still fits nicely flat inside the envelope.

I need to give credit to Jennifer Mcguire and Yasmin Diaz as they were the ones who introduced me to this pop-up technique. So fun!

I hope you were inspired by this Spring Floral Fox Shadow Pop-Up Frame Card. I am sure I will be making many more of these😁

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
