Gift Card Box with Three Mini Pop-Up Cards

This card was made for Craft Roulette #224 whose parameters included mini cards, “a pretty day” colors, scent(s)/nose(s) and packaging.

I chose to make a gift card box with three mini pop-up cards to celebrate Christmas. Karen Burniston Dies were used to create the box and pop-up mechanisms.

Cardbases: Mini cards are 2 x 7-inch rectangles of double-sided papers folded in half and trimmed to fit inside the box.

Box:  Using Karen Burniston’s Candy Hearts Box die set, cut one of the box die. Assemble as shown in the video at the bottom of the linked page. Glue journaling cards to decorate the box.
