Welcome back crafting friends. Lena here today to share a fun Ice Cream Sundae card with you. I love interactive cards and pop ups are one of my favourites. I'm a great fan Karen Burniston dies, and her latest release has many fun and interactive cards to choose from and they're just perfect for any occasion! To look through all of her dies at the Dies R Us store, please visit HERE. Now onto my card ...
Ta-da!!! Isn't it cute and delicious looking? Just perfect as we near the end of summer 😀
The front of the card is simple, but I thought it was effective leading to the surprise pop-up inside.
Here is a close up of the ice cream sundae,
and the bottom section where you have a small decorative mat to write your message. Although I followed Karen's tutorial video to assemble the pop up mechanism, I added a few extra details of my own. Let me show you how ...
After all the die cutting, I gathered all my pieces together and using my FineLine Applicator bottle, I adhered the ice cream scoops together.
While the ice cream bowl was still in the die, I used Memento Summer Sky ink to sponge a shadow to give it a little dimension.
That was it. It sounds like a lot of work, but it really isn't and the result is a fun interactive card well worth the time spent on it.
As always, here is a quick guide to the crafty supplies used,
each linked to the Dies R Us store for your convenience.

(I used Heart Banner from La-la Land which is no longer available at the store,
but this one works just as well.)
