How To Create A Bendy Pop Up New Year Card – Stamp Impressions Blog Hop

Dec 19, 2022 | All Occasions, Blog Hop, Techniques

Hello there Crafty friends. Welcome to this month’s Stamp Impressions Europe Blog Hop. I am part of an amazing group of demonstrators from all around Europe and we will be sharing some wonderful ideas based around a monthly theme. This month we are sharing projects with the theme KICK OFF 2023 & I am sharing my Bendy Pop Up New Year Card

Bendy Pop Up New Year Card

I do love a fun fold and what better occasion to celebrate with a new one to me is licking off of a new year?

I shared this card on my Facebook Live today and you can see exactly how I made it here

Do you like fireworks? I love them, but must confess the loud bangs I could do without! In Italy they have banned the noisy element of the explosion – truly silent fireworks – Right up my street!

Even better this firework patterned paper is also lovely & quiet – Perfect!

The topper is actually attached to a belly band which reveals the surprise inside!

How fun is that?

The central panel pops right out when you open it, surrounded by a sky of fireworks!

Those beautiful numbers are from the A La Mode Alphabet dies which will be available from the beginning of January. They have been cut from the retired Real Red Glimmer paper, but you can easily replace with something else.
