Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
I am here today to show you a card I've made using the pop-up box technique:
Started by measuring, scoring and cutting an A4 sheet of Mirri card.
.
As this is only shiny on none side I have added more pieces of the Mirri card to the opposite side at the top.
Layering next with some nice patterned Mirri card a kind of silver grey.
I've also prepared the inner support strips and lots of die cut hearts plus a large lace heart which will decorate the back.
I applied the larger heart first leaving one side loose so that it will not effect the fold.
Then tucked the loose section towards the back out of the way.
Then attached a smaller embossed heart and turned the box.
By turning the box it helps you to remember which direction these sections need to be decorated.
Once the outer sections are completed the box can be joined at the sides and the support inserts attached ready to add the rest of the heart embellishments.
I've also added some net to the inside and matching gem stones.
The sentiment is a rub on from my stash.
All that's left to do is to fold it flat and place it in the envelop, just hope the happy couple enjoy it.
If you like this card I do have a set of instructions which can be found here though there are lots on the internet too.
Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting.
Pleased to hear any thoughts you have about this project.

Brilliantly executed Angela! I don't trust myself to do so well, there's always something wrong at the last hurdle when I do any kind of paper engineering!
Wow love the Pics especially the Doggy.
