I decided to make my DH's valentine card and I've wanted to try a twisted pop-up card. This was fun to make - but time consuming!
I stamped my tree and ground on the front and sponged the sky. I stamped, colored, and fussy cut the VW. Purple is DH's favorite color so that is the VW color.
Inside I knew I wanted to use the gorgeous heart from Best of Love as the O but I don't have any letter stamps big enough to go with it. So, using the three outline heart stamp from You Brighten My Day, I stamped the letters L, V, and E. That was a bit tedious and it isn't perfect but I really like how the card turned out.
Thanks for looking!

Very good idea for Letter V. Love the VW bug; my DH picked me up for our first date in his blue VW, so I love 'em. I really like your idea with the pop up card inside. Love how you made the letters. You are so creative. Wonderfully done! TFS

Oh gosh Catherine, what a fantastic card for the letter V alphabet challenge. Wowzers - you packed a punch with this one! This VW bug parked under the tree is really a great scene. Then you open the card, and man, what a surprise! Fun! I love how you engineered these letters too- your efforts truly paid off because this looks amazing! This card is going right into my favs!
