Gate Fold Pop Up Christmas Pixies
A pop up gatefold card for christmas. Features cute snow pixies dancing in a wintery scene. This is a different variation on the pop up cards I've seen before. It is very quick and simple to make.
Either print straight onto card or for best results, print onto photo paper, then stick the gatefold image onto card at the point outlined in the instructions.
With a craft knife, cut along the 4 pop up tab lines. Score between the tags (not over the pop up tabs) and fold the 2 outer flaps inward to close the card.
At the same time, ease the 2 pop up tabs forward, so that they fold in the opposite direction to the card fronts.
Stick on card, cut out and fold closed again to get clean creases. Stick the side panels on the card fronts. Then simply attach the additional images to the pop up tabs as shown in the photo on my first sheet in this series cup99475_68.
Simples! ;0) (Hopefully)

I printed the sheet onto 250gsm smooth white card. I cut out all the pieces, scored and folded the card. I used a craft knife to make the cut lines in the base card. I attached some strips of card through the cut lines so the fairies can be attached.
I glued the front pieces to the card making sure the glue did not stop the fairies moving.
