Explosion Pop Up Card

Explosion Pop Up Card 
Hi friends...sharing a fun Pop Up Card perfect for the  festive season as it folds flat for mailing and packs a punch when you open it!
Explosion Pop Up Card 
The folds are origami folds...tricky to get right the  first time you try it [ I followed a tutorial from Mixed Up Crafts to make it]!
Explosion Pop Up Card 
I die cut cute little presents from metallic paper to make the  present. I love the  Presents die set from Crealies  and I think you can adapt the  same card design to make a cute birthday card.
Explosion Pop Up Card 
I added a Merry Christmas to the  lower flap of the  card. I created my own pop up mechanism in the  center using 3 strips of card stock Here are the  Measurements and score guides
Score all strips on the  long side :
Strip A 3 x 4 inches : Score at 1/2, 2 3/4 and 3 1/2
Strip B 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inches  : Score at 1/2, 2, and 2 3/4 
Strip C 1 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches : Score at 1/2, 1 1/4 and 2
Explosion Pop Up Card 
Mountain fold all the  strips at the  scorelines as shown

Pop Up Card 
Strip A will go at the  bottom followed by Strip B and then Strip C. These measurements are just guidelines. You can fashion your pop up to fit the  theme and size of your central pop up.
Here is the  video from my Instagram feed
