I've wanted all week, since the tutorial went up, to have a go at this free-standing pop-up card. Well, I had to go through every single room in the hotel twice before I spotted this one http://www.hotelfox.dk/images/rooms/506.jpg as a possibility :-). I used the colours and the mountains; couldn't see what was at the foot of the mountains in the room. If it's Heidi it should be goats, LOL, but I went for this little sheep from Penny Black.
The box base is green Bazzill, with blue and pink for the tag. The box was stamped with Pretty Petals in green ink which gives a faint flowery effect.The mountains are green pastel paper with the edges sponged with green ink. The clouds are from Mindy's Zoo (Autumn Leaves) stamped with Memories Soft Grey. I used a big pink flower eyelet with a regular blue eyelet set inside it for the ribbon. The sheep stamp is Penny Black, I stamped it 3 times, the one on the tag has his head layered up. They're all coloured with H2Os. The front of the folding box is decorated with green check ribbon, well hidden behind little punched flowers and the other sheep, and more flowers are sprinkled over the *meadow* in the foreground. This was a fun card to make.

Love your scene and the pop up card.

This is wonderful! I want to do that card too, but need to find the time to work on it! Love you card!! I thought the room you picked was too cute too, but liked another one!
I love this card - especially the stamp (since we raise sheep). Will have to try to get the stamp. Making these cards are fun - thanks for sharing. Judy
