'Scent' With Love.......


I'm really into pop-up cards at the moment and I predict you'll be sick to death of 'em before I am! I've made a card with this pun sentiment before but never as a pop-up. I used Studio g.c.d papers again and I cut a perfume bottle from some holographic cardstock to give the appearance of cut glass. I chopped the 'bulb' end off and shortened it a little because it would have poked out of the side of the card in it's original state and I think that it looks better now.
I added a label with 'ooh-La-La' cut into it and added a flower shaped gem as an embellishment. I embossed the bulb with a houndstooth embossing folder.
A scalloped heart was cut from pearlised card to hold the sentiment which was cut from pink & blue glittercard, then adhered to the upright portion of the card. A punched border with a blousey bow and floral arrangement was adhered to the bottom of the card with foam tape. A tag was cut to hold a greeting and slipped into the side of the card.

Carts used:
Perfume bottle & label-Forever Young
Scalloped & plain hearts-Life's a Party
Tag-George
Sentiment-Wall Decor
With Love (on front of card)-Sentimentals
