This past weekend, some of my best friends came to my house to celebrate two of their birthdays (look for a post about the party and a quick tute for a fun stamped favor this week). It was so much fun! We almost always try to do some kind of papercrafting project, and I was excited to show them how fun and easy the
pop-up box card from Splitcoaststampers is to make. They all loved it and couldn't believe how quickly it goes together - which means you can get right to the fun of decorating it!
Since Valentine's Day is just a couple weeks away, we all decided on that theme. Of course, I had to use lots of Sizzix dies and some of my favorite stamps and papers from Tim Holtz. If you haven't had a chance to
check out the tutorial for this cool card, make sure you do. It is so much fun! Here is a link to the
steampunk birthday card I made using this tutorial. I tell you...addicting!
Nearly everything I used can be purchased from Inspiration Emporium via the links below (the tiny hearts are an older Sizzix die). Remember to use my coupon code - stamptramp - to save 10% on your order!
