Step-by-step 3D Pop Up Star Card 'Here Comes Santa'

Happy Wednesday!

I hope you have a great day!

Today, Monika Graefling-Gladysiak has a photo tutorial for you using 'Here Comes Santa' collection designed by Paula Machado.

You will need:

'Here Comes Santa' collection, kraft card, scoring board, double sided tape and liquid glue, distress oxide inks: 'Walnut Stain' and  'Tea Dye', white card, ink blending tool, pencil, gems of your choice.

Step 1

Use a kraft card to cut six panels measuring 15cm x 15 cm. Then, score the panels at: 3,5cm, 7cm, 10,5 cm, 14cm. Adhere the ends of the panels to create cuboids.

Step 2

Use 'Walnut stain' Distress Oxide and apply the colour on the edges of your cuboids.

Step 3

Use the design papers from  'Here Comes Santa' collection and create small panels measuring 3cm by 14,5 cm. Distress the edges using scissors and 'Tea Dye' Distress Oxide.

Step 4

Adhere the small panels onto cuboids using double sided tape and liquid tape.

Step 5

Adhere the cuboids together only on the kraft panels, fold it flat. Then, you can open the card to see the star.

Step 6

Use a kraft card to create a star and bigger panel (square - you can use any dies from your stash). Use one of the design papers from  'Here Comes Santa' collection to create slightly smaller star. Distress the edges on the star.

Step 7

Create 2 panels using kraft card 2cm x 6 cm, score them at: 1cm, 2cm, 4cm, 5cm.

They will create small bridge cards to hold the star and the panel to write the message.

Step 8

Adhere the small bridge panels onto a point of the star using liquid glue and a star. On the opposite side adhere the panel to write the message.

Step 9

Your project is complete and ready to be presented on a shelf or your desk!

Happy crafting!
