Fall Pop Up Box Card Ideas

Today I’m sharing fall pop up box card ideas using several of the newly released dies by Rubbernecker Stamps.  Yesterday I posted a Z Fold cornfield card with an old flatbed truck, crows and cats.  My project today has a field of corn with the main focal image being on the fun scarecrow in the background.  I filled all three flaps of the box with a fence, pumpkins, corn and squirrels to carry on the fall theme.  I love the crows that come with the scarecrow set and I had to add a few more to the flaps.  Any of the fall components of this card could be used as main focal images for fall cards. 

For this project I used the Scarecrow, Corn Stalks, Picket Fence, Pumpkins and Ivy, Apples, Pears and Corn, Wagon, Baskets, Birds, Chickens and Squirrels, Grass, and Small Ivy.  I used The Paper Cut Square Pop Up Box Kit for my card base.

The Box Base and Layers

• Use the bone folder to reinforce all the score lines .
• Cut the designer paper layering pieces.
• Apply ATG adhesive to the back of all the layering pieces and attach to the inside and outside sections and flaps. 
• Apply double stick tape to the side insert flap, line the box sides up and attach the two ends together to form the box.
• Cut grass and fence sections to fit the three flaps and attach with double stick tape.
• Cut grass insert sections to fit the insert fronts and attach using double stick tape.  Score both ends at 1/2″ in.
• Cut several sections of cornstalks and attach to the back of the insert layers using glossy accents.
• Apply double stick tape to each tab and insert the tabs to the inside of the box.
• The designer paper layer sizes:
  •  2   5 5/8″ x 3 5/8″ layers
  •  2   3 5/8″ x 2 3/4″ layers
  •  4   1 7/8″ x 2 3/4″ layers

The Scarecrow, Wagon and Veggies

• Cut the scarecrow sections and assemble using glossy accents and mounting tape.
• Attach the scarecrow to the back of the card using a triple layer of mounting tape.
• Use gray cardstock to cut the wheelbarrow, apply Rusty Hinge and Vintage Photo ink using mini applicators and attach to the front flap using mounting tape..
• Cut the pumpkins and squash using yellow cardstock and apply Spiced Marmalade and Crushed Olive ink using mini applicators.
• Use woodgrain paper to cut the basket, apply Antique Linen ink with a mini applicator and assemble using glossy accents.
• Cut corn and husks using yellow and green cardstock, assemble the pieces using glossy accents and attach corn using glossy accents.
• Tuck the corn basket and squash in the wagon and attach to the flap base using mounting tape.
• Tuck the pumpkins in behind the grass and attach to the flap bases using mounting tape.

The Squirrels, Crows and Ivy

• Cut the squirrels using white cardstock and apply color using Pumice Stone and Antique Linen ink and mini applicators.
• Attach the squirrels to the flaps using pieces of mounting tape.
• Use black cardstock to cut the crows and attach them to the flaps using small pieces of mounting tape.
• Cut several pieces of small ivy and tuck them in behind the pumpkins and attach using glossy accents.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my project with fall pop up box card ideas. The front and side flap mini scenes could all easily be the main focal point of a regular A2 sized card.  You can see more Pop Up Box cards and Fall Cards on my blog for more inspiration.  And you can go into Fall Pop Up Box Card overload on the Pinterest link.  Wow!  So much fun to see.
