So I saw this being made by Sam Calcott, she has made them in 3 different sizes so far but none A2. I saw someone post their card and they followed the directions from Carys Creative Table. Hers is I believe is A6 but thats close enough for me. This is what I made. Someone requested a birthday card for a 15 year old girl with some sad issues and was hoping cards would cheer her up. I used the Wild Bunch stamp set and Stampin Up DSP. It is a fun card! You pull the bottom piece to the right and the animals pop out to the left.

Sliding Message Card
Another dear card making friend sent a die set for my birthday that she thought would go well with the Cute Bugs set. I made this card from it, the mushrooms and ferns are the dies. I then used a couple of the fussy cut bugs from the DSP and made the card with Moonlit Flora DSP. I am very pleased with the outcome! I will be sending this to her.

Multifold Card
I received a beautiful card for my birthday from one of my great card making friends and just had to copy it! I figured out the measurements quite easily since I had her card in my hand. I dont know if there is a tutorial out there and I dont know the name of the card design. However I love it. I used Velvet Meadow DSP again and Peaceful Pine card stock.

Hidden Pop Up
The group I am in for swapping chose this card for July and I obviously have been making several of these already! So here is the one for the swap. The last picture is a close up to show the Wink of Stella and the white dots that don’t show on the other pics. I used Stampin Up Velvet Meadow DSP which is flocked.

Pop Up Bay Window Card
This one is by Sam Calcott on YouTube, she is the creator of Made to Create which has stamps, dies and paper from the UK. I followed her video and wrote down the instructions, my notes are a bit chaotic but at least with her video I can do it again. This is for my BFF in CA. they recently got out of school for the summer (she is a teacher) so I wanted to send her a Hello Summer card. She loves to bake so I downloaded this digital paper from Creative Fabrica and it is so pretty! I fussy cut the Mixer and I love how it shows through the oval window cut out and when you open the card it pops up inside. The kitchen is very nostalgic.
