Pop Up Wreath Card

Pop Up card -Christmas Wreath
I love making pop up cards and designing one from scratch is fun though I must admit I it does get a bit crazy at times when things dont work out just the way I want! 
Pop Up card -Christmas Wreath
Making the wreath and the popping up bow was easy but getting the Santa and the Reindeer to peek out from under the pop up wreath did require a bit of paper engineering hair pulling! 
Pop Up card -Christmas Wreath
This card is made entirely from easily available stuff and I have not used any kinda punch or fancy tool.
The green holly leaves were handcut from locally available glitter paper, the red rhinestone berries are "bindis" [ used by our Indian ladies to adorn our foreheads!] and santa and the reindeer are stickers.
Though not made of exotic materials this type of card does have a lot of fun element  and you dont need any fancy stuff to make it just paper,scissors and glue!
Shall share the pop up wreath tutorial in the next post

    Sonia, your work is always magical! I love how you took elements from my creation, but made it entirely "Sonia-esque"...it is beautiful my sweet blend. You are on a roll with all these link ups!
    Good Luck !

    A fun & festive card. Especially like the green glitter paper you used for the leaves of the wreath.

      The leaves were so easy to make Rachel since the paper was thin I layered many atop each other and could quickly and easily cut a whole bunch!
