Pop-flower Card Kit - Daisy Ring
Give your cards a real WOW factor with this kit to make a pop-up flower bouquet - a great surprise for the person who opens the card.
The kit includes flower shapes to cut out, fold and put together, with full instructions on how to do it.
Also included are matching sheets to decorate the front of your card - teabag tiles to create very pretty flowers (with an easy to follow instruction sheet), and an A4 sheet with 2 different background papers.
Print sheets 1, 2 and 3 onto paper. There is also a plain coordinating sheet which you can print onto card either as the base card or to diecut shapes.
A great value kit, and fun card to make and receive.

Quite a complex card, but worth it. I printed the sheets on plain paper, as instructed.
The "lining" on the inside is the plainer of the two insert sheets offered.
The big pop-out flower is made as per instructions, with the single petal from each flower and the "spare" flower saved for use on the card front. Glue used is a tape dispenser used at the edge of the petals.
Positioning the flower inside the card was something I found difficult: as it is, the flower when the card is closed touches the centre fold, and it would open better if it was possible to position it further in.
On the front of the card, I have the "spare" large flower, a stream of spare petals arranged so that the rather square tops as supplied are hidden, and in the centre of the big flower, one of the "tea leaf" flowers. (Second picture loaded)
Hint when making up the tea leaf flower: don't assume the "squares" as supplied are actually square. Do your folding with the picture visible so you can be sure you're going through the centre of the pattern.
I still have enough spare tea leaf squares to make an extra flower, a spare backing sheet, and a spare plain paper.
I'd like to print this out again and use the "tea leaf" fold on the larger flowers, that would look good.
Sheets 1,2 and 3 were printed on 90gsm paper, sheet 4 was printed on light card. I made up the 2 teabag tile flowers as per the instruction sheet and added green brads through the centres.
I used the abstract background paper to cover the front of a 13.5cm square card base, then used a diecut swirl for the stems & leaves for the flowers, and added gold peeloff corners.
I cut the plain colour sheet slightly smaller than the base card to form an insert, which was stuck to the inside of the card base.
I made up the pop-up flowers as per the instructions and attached them to the insert.
The inside was finished off with the same gold peeloff corners as on the front.
