Everyday Details popup card

 



 basecard is thick white 8 1/2 x  5 1/2  scored at 4 1/4 for A2 card
Diecut a large circle using the Everday details die. 
emboss the front panel minus the circle using the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder
stamp the sentiment on the inside panel.
 
mechanism is a piece of white cardstock 3 x 1 1/2 inches- scored  3 times every 3/4 inches with the 3 inch side across the top.
fold the mechanism piece in 1/2 and with the open part of the fold on the fold of the card on the inside, place glue on the mechanism panel on the bottom panel closest to the fold of the card.
Tape or glue the top panel of the mechanism closest to the fold to the inside panel - only on the part that will stick to the area between the fold of the card and the circle opening, Do not put adhesive beyond the front opening.
 
Stamp and color in the image from Everyday Details. Fussy cut an extra egg and apply with dimension if you want some dimension.
I put glue on the egg closest to the nest so it will stay put  and dimensionals on the top part so it will pop up- I did not want the eggs to "float")

Tape or glue on the second panel of the mechanism visible through the opening with the card closed. 
align the circle (or whatever diecut you use for this technique) and burnishso it will stick to the tape on the second panel of the mechansim.  
When you open the card the diecut will pop up.

Use stampin' Blends - so saffron, Pool party inkpad using sponge daubers to color in the raised potaion of the embossed front panel as shown to add some interest without detracting from the front panel.
