Pop-Up Bandstand Card

Jeanie Stark’s Mystery Monday Stampin’ ended up being a Pop-up Bandstand card this week. What a fun card! I think I’ve heard it called a bay window card as well. The fun part was not knowing what I was building as I followed her directions until I got it all put together! Thus the “mystery!” I used the Thankful Garden Bundle with stamps, dies, and decorative masks. For DSP, I used Lovely Garden, (This bundle and suite collection are unavailable right now but will be back the week of July 14.)

The finished card measures the usual 5-1/2″x 4-1/4″, but it pops up when you take it from the envelope and stands up nicely on your table top.

On the back, there is a good place for writing a personal note!

Here you can see down inside at the Lovely Garden DSP.

To make this card or to play along with Jeanie’s Mystery Clues, click HERE for measurements and instructions.

My card has the following materials:

• Basic Black Cardstock
• Lovely Garden DSP
• Basic White Cardstock
• Thankful Garden stamps, dies, and decorative masks
• Blueberry Bushel, Memento Tuxedo Black, Berry Burst, and Garden Green ink pads
• Unbounded Love Stamp Set
• White Baker’s Twine
• Black Neutral Matte Dots

I pulled the leftovers in to cover the flap of my envelope. It adds a special homemaid touch with a “hint” of what’s inside.

I can see a few more of these cards in my future. It will be fun to experiment with different papers.

Have a great weekend!
