Let it snow - Pop-up card

Hello everyone!

New Saturday and new challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. 

For the next two weeks we want you to make a  

Pop-up card

At first glance a relatively simple card - (the surprise is inside) :))

but still requires a little time because of the pop-up mechanism.  

Actually I wanted to make a video tutorial for it, but unfortunately I didn't have enough time. I'll do that another day, I promise! ;) - Instead I added a short video to show how the mechanism works. (see below) 

card opened

I used two small panels from a design paper pad - one for the big sentiment and a winter landscape for the inside of the card. The sentiment is backed with silver glitter paper and pasted onto the embossed cover-sheet. I also pasted design paper from the same pad behind the mechnism. 

The winter landscape image is backed with purple cardstock and pasted onto the mechanism. To the left of it I stamped a strip with purple snowflakes. I also added a small stamped sentiment to the mechanism. The cute reindeer from cats on appletrees are stamped, fussy cut, glued on and backed with acetate for more stability. Hope you like it.

...and this is how the mechanism works. 

Have Fun!!
