Purple Onion Designs - White & Blue Winter - Shadow Box Pop-Up Card

Hello there,

Today I'm sharing with you the last card i made as a guest designer for Purple Onion Designs. Don't forget that you get 25% off their stamps. No code needed and the sale ends this monday (July 29th)

So for this holiday shadow box card, I cut 2 large rectangles: one out of wood pattern paper and one out of white cardstock, both measuring 8 x 4-3/4". And I scored them at half an inch and at one inch from both ends.

On the middle part of the wood panel, I die cut a rectangle to create a window. And I folded the score lines on both panels. Inside the white panel, I applied tumbled glass oxide to create a simple sky.

Next I cut two strips measuring 7-1/2" x 1" and scored at 3/8" from both ends.

I also cut a mountain border and two hill borders out of white cardstock.

On the outside flaps of the white panel, I applied double sided tape, as well as on the strips. I stuck the hill borders on those strips, and adhered the mountain border inside the white panel.

Next I took the white panel, removed the back of the tape on the left flap and attached the left flap of the wood panel. I adhered the left tab of one hill strip inside the white panel, and did the same thing with the other hill strip, but this time I adhered it inside the wood panel. I removed the back of the tape on those tabs, and folded the right flap of the white panel to adhere it to the hill border. And I folded the remaining flap to adhere it to the other hill border. And finally I closed the shadow box.

Next step was to color the images. I started by stamping them on neenah cardstock using memento tuxedo black ink and I colored them using my alcohol markers.

To add more interest to the front of the card, I cut a frame out of navy blue cardstock using two rectangle dies, and attached it using double sided tape. Next I stuck the images down using glue dots. And finally I stamped 3 additional elements and attached them using the same glue dots.
