I love this one - I think it turned out pretty (for my first try)!! Very easy and tried to make it 3D. The butterfly is on vellum and only stuck on in the middle then folded the wings up.

Gorgeous card. So, this pop-up doesn't really fold up and get sent to somebody (or does it?). Seems like it would get stuck if someone tried to open it if you sent it to them. Love how it looks, though.

Actually it does fold flat. The part that is sticking up with the flowers pushes down and the stand with the bird in front pushes up and flattens over top. The instructions are on SCS - I tried looking in the Tech & Resources but couldn't find it. I will keep my eyes peeled for it though. It is super easy to do too!!

I've made these before. Just looks like your flowers would get stuck in the slot and not want to pop up. Love this set - everything I've seen with it looks incredibly good!

I love these cards, and I must say this is the prettiest of these cards I have ever seen! WOW!!! Love how you added the bird, butterfly and flower standing free! Very happy you started a gallery. You have great creativity to share!
What a beautiful card. This is the prettiest one I have seen for this technique. I just have to make one so I found the template/intructions under "free standing pop up card" at the the techniques site.
