How to Make a Pop-Up with Paper Pumpkin
Somehow I managed to do it!
I made an alternative project for this stellar Paper Pumpkin kit after already loving the design of the original cards.
If you saw my earlier post about the kit, you would know how much I love it! I didn’t think it would be possible to make an alternative project that I loved as much.
My 17 year old son tells me that this pop-up card is definitely a step up. (This, from the amazing kid who got the highest possible mark on his Advanced Placement Physics exam! So proud of him!)
I’m very happy with this design, but I have to admit that you just can’t beat the simplicity of the original tri-fold cards in the kit. For how simple they are, they look fantastic!
My design is certainly not as simple.
Two of the designs in the July Paper Pumpkin kit were used to create this diorama card. When you open the card, you can see that the inside is the best part with the printed scene on the left and the pop-up scene on the right. This shows off the printed parts of the cards.
How-to Video
Usually, I share my Paper Pumpkin projects in a live stream on Facebook. However, this week I’m taking a vacation, so I pre-recorded the video and scheduled it to post. (tech skills, don’t fail me now!)
Watch the video below to see how to make this fancy pop-up diorama card using the July 2021 Paper Pumpkin Kit – The Adventure Begins.
