Cascading Pop Up Card

Cascading Snowflakes Card
Hi friends...sharing a special 3 D Interactive Pop Up Card....in a Cascading design! Cascading cards used to be very popular at one time and though they look very complicated they are actually wonderful cards to make when you want that to make an extra special card! The design is just a fusion between accordions and slots.
Cascading Snowflakes Card
         Here is the Tutorial link : Cascading Card Tutorial  . I made the base using my original Tutorial and  then used the border die from Crealies Snowglobe set to cut a wavy border on the top part to create a snowy landscape for the snowflakes.         
The die cut snowflakes are made to pop up and swing by mounting them on acetate sheets and attaching them to the card base Finished off the card with a trio of poinsettias!
This Winter/Christmas Celebration card opens out to display and can fold flat for mailing or storage.

Ink : Distress Inks  Tumbled Glass
Card stock - Ivory Sheets
Acetate Sheets- from Dress My Craft Crafters Corner

Linking to  Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Pop It Up , Twisted Challenge Monochromatic, Pixie's Snippets Playground - used lots of snippets to create the snowflakes using all the  scraps of white cardstock I had!
