Super Critters

This is my very first attempt at a pop-up box card, and I'm hooked.

This one did take me an age to construct but I really loved the end result.  I used my new Clearly Besotted Caped Cuties and matching dies (a lovely surprise gift from a very dear friend) and lots of dies (grass, fence, landscape borders, stars, stitched circles etc) and created a bespoke sentiment printed onto my backing paper.

I hope you like it because I'm already thinking about my second one!




Here's a bit of a close up. The flying bunny is on a little strip of acetate.




You can tell I loved how this one turned out by the multitude of pictures ... here's one from the front:

It really looks fabulous Kat... you did an amazing job putting it together. I'm afraid I had one go at these a couple of years back and gave it up as a bad job!! LOL! Maybe I should try again sometime?

Hi Annette, Oh my golly gosh - this is truly amazing. I love everything about this. The caped critters are adorable and exquisitely coloured. The elements you have put together in your box card are just perfectly chosen. Finally - I have never made a box card either - always looks a bit technical to me! Yours is truly inspirational and I am off to find a tutorial now!
