Popup Box card / flower bouquet card

Hello
Who doesn't like flowers? What if we can make a flower bouquet inside a card. So my today's project is a pop-up box card which is filled with flowers, grass and leaves. I made this as a thank you card. But this could serve many occasions.
I used a thick cardstock for making the box. The flowers, leaves and grass were cut using my Cricut explore1 machine
Previously I made a birthday card for a 2-year old using the same pattern but dimensions of the card was different

The box card or pop up card looks like this


 OMG I love it



This is an absolute craft that everyone should try. Though I used a cutting machine to make flowers, grass and leaves, I think it doesn't need a machine's help to cut the same.
For a little help I upload a template please have a look at that too
Don't forget to check my video for the tutorial 

Thank you visiting

Wedding Place card DIY


I made this simple place cards for one of my friend's wedding party. She wanted a simple yet elegant looking place cards. So I created a few drafts and this card was her selection. This card is so cute and easy to make and assemble. This place card was an absolute decoration for the table. I have done place cards of different styles, but this is my absolute baby, I love it because of its charm and cuteness.

 Materials required
  1. Cardstock - ivory or white coloured [I prefer Canson XL if you use watercolour brush lettering.
  2. Brush marker.
  3. Paper trimmer and scoring tool to cut and burnish the folds.
  4. Candle
  5. Flowers and leaves for decorating [I used paper flowers and real leaves]
  6. Craft edge punch
My place card measures 7-inch height & 6-inch wide, card folds at 3.5 inches. 

A good option, if you are on a budget, is going for 'the paper studio' heavyweight cardstock you will get  50 or 60 for a price of $9. I got it from ' Hobby lobby' with 40% discount. Try using Microsoft word and printer if you are out of time and not good with brush lettering. 

You can keep it simple with a flower and  leaves as shown in the image.


(OR)

Decorate it with candle and wreath for added beauty


This is how it will look when the candle is lit. 


A PICTURE SPEAKS MORE THAN 1000 WORDS........ this place card is so simple so it doesn't need anymore blah blah tuts
