Stamp Something 3-D !

Stamp Something is going 3-D this week! Alex, one of our oh-so-talented DT members, is hosting this week's challenge and I am so excited to see what everyone comes up with. I struggled with this challenge all week. I just couldn't decide what kind of 3-D item to do. So, I admit, I waited till the last minute and I'm glad I did. Sometimes creativity comes to me when I am feeling the pressure. SCS must have known I was looking for an idea and Beate posted this tutorial on Wednesday. Many of you have probably done a pop-up card before, but this was new to me (at least this type of pop-up) and it was perfect for this 3-D challenge! I am also so excited to show you this very cool paper. It is the Rockability Specialty paper pack by SU. Here on the outside of the card can you see that shine on the stripes? That is the paper! I did nothing to it. One side of each of the sheets has a cool embossed pattern (the cherries are embossed on the pattern here on the inside of the card) and I love it!!! Since I was going with the Cherry theme, I decided to add some red brads to my tree to turn this into a cherry tree. I got the idea from Marie. The WOW factor of this card is the inside, open it up and POP Goes the Weasel! Can you tell I am in toddler mode? LOL! The greeting on the inside pops up when you open the card.


Be sure to stop by and play along again this week. Another fabulous prize is up for grabs! Enjoy your Friday! Hugs, Lisa
