Triple Pop Up Cube card to say Happy 21st Birthday Joe

A special Triple Pop Up Cube card for a special young man on a special day!

And isn't it lovely that the whole nation has a special day's holiday to celebrate his 21st!!
Though he's busy finishing his final year dissertation off to "hand in" today... so not sure he's feeling the love for the event yet!

And for us... on the one hand we are celebrating Joe's birthday with special food and drinks planned throughout the day for him (and tomorrow too)... and on the other hand we are celebrating the 75th Anniversary of VE Day ... so I made a banner! Care of this and this downloads


Card made using Noble Peacock Speciality Papers and Foil Sheets... gorgeous So Sentimental greeting, co-ordinating Stitched So Sweetly dies and retired Large Numbers dies...

I was inspired by the card shared here by Laurence Mirman at Lolascrap et Compagnie... and (for the first time in ages!) I had to immediately make one... Luckily she shared a tutorial too... thank you so much Laurence... I love this card!
Though I did make up my own pop up mechanism for the greetings... so on the front and the back...
By punching 2 shapes (I used the Tailored Tag punch)... scoring centrally... bone folding... sticking either side of the central crease (with the folded edges face forward/to the centre crease/line) and then sticking the stamped die cut label to them... Bit fiddly in places... but worth it...

And yes it does fold flat...
Though it did confuse Joe!! It took a little while for him to fathom it out! But it was worth it... Happy 21st Birthday Joe...
