3D Gnome Flower Gard Card

I found this cute 3D Gnome Flower Garden SVG Design at the Silhouette Store.

I knew it would be a fun Summer Card to make.

• I used my Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die-Cutting Machine to cut the base of the pop-up card out of cardstock.

• I noticed the perforation lines on the layers but didn’t give it much thought.  I figured that’s how I was supposed to create the dimension.
• If you’re a card maker like me, you’ve learned that sometimes you’ve got to adapt.
• I was preparing to assemble the pop-up card when I realized the perforations were for making a 3D Gnome Flower “Box” card.   So… I adapted.  (Keep reading to see my adaptation.)

Add some Glitter and Glam to your cards with Ultra Metallic Vinyl from StyleTechCraft.  

• I cut the layering pieces of the card using StyleTech Craft Ultra Metallic Vinyl.

• Add the vinyl to the cardstock using clear transfer tape.

• Here are the three main card layers with the vinyl added.
• I wasn’t as accurate as I wanted to be.  (I needed to take more time.) I will say that it’s not as noticeable on the finished card.

Here’s how I made the layers a pop-up card.  

• I put the three layers together using 3d foam squares for added dimension.
• I made a 1/2″ four-sided cube that was approximately 5″ long. (I used a scoring board tool for consistency.)
• I added adhesive to three sides of the cube and adhered it onto my layers and card.

Isn’t this little Garden Gnome the cutest?

Do you see what I mean?

It’s not as noticeable once it’s all put together.

• I added Ultra Metallic Vinyl to the inside of a white cardstock card for my card base.
• I used the Silhouette Cameo to cut the words using StyleTechCraft Glossy White Vinyl.
