I have see several of these “Pop Up Creeper Cards” on the internet but no one gave any directions on how to make it. Since my grandson’s birthday was coming up I decided to make my own. In my previous post I have shared with you my template for making the pop up creeper.
See previous post for creeper template.
DSP – One side of the card appears to be larger than the other. So, Do Not flip the pattern over or it won’t fit the card. Using your Exacto Knife cut out ONLY the creeper section your template. Lay the template over your card base and trim as needed. Paper Clip this template to your DSP. Trace the cut out creeper onto your DSP. Fold the DSP in ½ and cut apart on the fold. Carefully lay the DSP over the card base, around the creeper. Check to be sure all edges fit. Tape the Right side in place. When that is done, tape the left side in place.
Adding a face to the Creeper: Punch 16 Black Squares using your 1/4” square punch. Adhere squares to creeper as shown. Go over the squares with “Black Stickles Glitter Glue” to give the black squares a shine. Let dry before proceeding. Then Stamp the “Smiles and Laughter” verse in Black Ink.
On the card front (which I didn't show) I added “Happy Birthday” and “Aiden” using the front from http://textcraft.net/. This is free service that writes your words in Minecraft Script. I sized the picture on the card front to 5 3/8” x 4 1/8”. Before printing the picture I added the Happy Birthday and the Name that I downloaded from “texcraft”. Print the picture on glossy Photo Paper and adhere to card front.
