Fun fold Friday Attention Shoppers

 A fun simple fold for the final card of the week using the amazing Attention Shoppers bundle. Called a pop up easle it's so simple and works well with a clean and unfussy aesthetic . 

It starts with a piece of cardstock measuring 14.85cm x 15.5cm scored at 10.5cm . ( 6 ¼" x 5½" scored at 2"). Then cut a piece of cardstock the same colour as the base measuring 3cm x 14.85cm ( 1¼" x 5½"). With a contrast colour cardstock cut a piece measuring  2cm x 14.85cm ( ¾" x 5½").

With the fold on the left-hand side adhere the wider stip of cardstock to the right hand edge. Then adhere the other strip, butting it up to the edge of the other strip as close as possible. 

Next is the pop up portion . Start with a piece of cardstock measuring 10.5cm x 10.5cm scored at 5.25cm.  ( 4¼" x 4¼" scored at 2⅛") Adhere this panel to the center of the short side of the card base so that the score line runs along the cut edge. Now adhere a mat on top measuring 10cm x 10cm (4" x 4") to the panel  only applying adhesive to the half that is not attached to the cardbase. This allows the panel to pop up and create the easle effect.

This simple fold has still got tons of impact and plenty of scope for decoration.

Using the Attention shoppers dies from the bundle I created a mask using the shopping trolley basket section.  And used it to blend colour through to create an interesting background. I die cut 4 baskets part and using a small bead of liquid adhesive adhered them together.

Don't throw away all of the small pieces from the die cuts use them! They can help add more texture to you final piece with out being overwhelming.

The card folds flat for posting. And as the stamped images where stamped, coloured, die cut the adhered flat it will not even need extra postage!
