My Monthly Hero October 2018 Card Kit -- Special Ultra Dimensional Pop Up Card

I had so much fun creating 3 cards that are the same yet very different. Hurry over to Hero Arts to get this kit as it is still available as of this writing.

Here is a video, some images, and a list of supplies and dimension to help you make your own :)

Card #1 - Pictured In the Video Link - Closed

Card #2

Card #2 - Closed

Card #3


Card #3 - Interior Detail

I created a box/book card because I wanted to include this tree. I die cut 7 of the tree with the center die included out of green card stock, folded 6 of them in half and then glued the centers to the remaining tree to create this delightful little tree.

This next card was a quick and easy card using the Fun Stampers Journey Frosted Friends Puffy Stickers .
It's always nice to have things like this in my stash so I can throw together a quick card in a pinch. I'm off to shop for some more of the new goodies :)
