This is the fourth in a series of cards that have shelves as the main element of the card.

This card was made with Waffle Flower dies, stamps and stencils.
Watch the process video to see how I made this card.


Cardbase: The outer cardbase is an A2 (4.25×5.5-inches) made from an 8.5×5.5-inch rectangle of lightweight white cardstock. The outside is covered with panels of decorative paper.

Pop-Out Shelves: For the popout shelves cut an 8.5×5.5-inch rectangle of either patterned cardstock or lightweight cardstock with decorative paper covering it. Mark the center of the rectangle at 4.24-inches at the top and bottom of the cardstock and place the Inside Pop-Up Shelves die’s dotted center line on the center marks. Run through a die cut machine and work the fold-lines to make the shelves pop-out. Die-cut just the shelves from a woodgrain paper. Cut the shelf sections out and glue to the large pop-up panel. Decorate with plants from the Shelf Add-Ons die set.

Cats: Add to the shelves, cats die-cut from black cardstock using the Cattitude die set. Stencil cats using the Birthday Kitties Stencil set onto white cardstock and fussy cut out for use on card front.

Sentiments: Using the Purrfect Sentiments stamp set, stamp “Everyday is caturday” on white cardstock and “Have a purrect birthday” inside the card. Add “You’re the cat’s meow” diecut Subsentiments Cat to the inside shelves.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope which has a cat stamped on its back flap from the Cattitude stamp set.
