Create with Connie and Mary Blog Hop: Pop Out Swing Fold

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Bog Hop!!  All during June we are featuring different FUN FOLD CARDS and this week is the POP OUT SWING CARD!

You should be arriving from Mary Brown's amazing blog Stamper Camper's Corner, wasn't her card wonderful??!!  If you are just starting out here, welcome and enjoy the ride!  Be sure to stop at each blog to check out all of the cool cards we have for you today.

I was so excited about today's card, I have been wanting to try this type of fun fold for awhile now.  It took me a little bit to figure out what I wanted to do, but I think you'll like the end result.

 I combined my obsession with shaker cards and this fun fold style to create a fabulous birthday card anyone would love!

This fun fold is so easy to create!!!  It really takes no time at all, just a couple of extras steps with a regular size card front.  I went with the fun new set You're So Sweet on page 57 of the new Annual Catalog.  It coordinates with the Mini Treat Bag Thinlet, but you can do lots more with it!

I started out with the sentiment stamped with Watermelon Wonder on Whisper White.  The Square Framelits were used to create the opening and the cut the cardstock for the shaker.  I used the third and fourth framelits from the outside.  I'm not going to go into great detail right now, but if you like this card and want to know more , leave a comment and I will consider doing a video if enough people are interested!  UPDATE:  There have been soooo many wonderful comments and I super appreciate it!! I love to hear what you think so stay tuned for the video you have asked for!!!  Click HERE to go to the TUTORIAL!!!

My shaker contains gold sequins, Crushed Curry stars with the Confetti Star Punch, and Watermelon Wonder cherries punched with the Cupcake Builder Punch.

When you pull the shaker, more magic happens and the card pops open!  I added a birthday greeting from Age Awareness plus a sweet little cupcake with the Cupcake Builder Punch.  The Cherry on Top Designer paper provided the fun candy pattern paper that I paired with Crushed Curry.

As always I made the envelope coordinate with the card with a cute little punched cupcake in the lower left corner.....always have to match!!! 

I hope you enjoyed my shaker style pop out swing card!  Now it's time to hop on over to Debbie Henderson's beautiful blog Debbie's Designs to see what fabulous idea she's come up with this week!!

Thanks for hanging out with us again!  See you next time!
