This is the pop-up book that I created as the inside of my IC card today. I have wanted to try the A2 format, after trying the larger one earlier this year for my SIL's birthday.
To add to the book appearance, I used one of the stamps from Gorgeous Grunge to stamp along the two "book edges" of the fold, masking everything else off. It's a grey rainy day here, so I don't know if you can see that. I cut two rectangles from cream card, and while they were in the die, I stamped the flowers on one, and the sentiment and edging on the other one. Then I sponged the edges brown, and added paper-pieced flowers to the left-hand panel, then added them to the scored pop-up panel before sticking it into the card front.
It's a fun tutorial - here's the link if you want to give it a go: Pop-up Book Card
And the front of my card using the same Unity flower stamp, is HERE.
