Pop Up Box Card for Christmas

My project today is a Christmas cabin pop up box card made using several dies by Rubbernecker Stamps.  I used the Cabin, Deckle Hills, Tree in Oval, Pine Tree Forest, Wildlife, Small Birds and Greenery #1.  I used the Splatter Background stamp to create the falling snow on the sky and trees.  I used the A2 Pop Up Box Kit by The Paper Cut for my card base.

Come see how I made this pop up box card for Christmas.

Assemble the Pop Up Box Base

  • Cut the layering pieces.
    • 2   2″ x 5 3/8″
    •   2″ x 2 5/8″
  • Apply white pigment ink to the Splatter Stamp and stamp all the blue sky layers and emboss with white embossing powder.
  • Attach the paper layers to the inside and outside card base using double stick tape.
  • Apply double stick tape to the tab, line it up and secure the box closed.
  • Cut the snow sections to fit the tabs included in the kit and attach them with double stick tape.
  • Apply double stick tape to the tabs on both sides and insert them inside the box.
  • Cut an additional snow sections and attach to the inside front of the box and the flaps using double stick tape.

The Cabin

  • Cut the cabin using woodgrain cardstock and white cardstock.
  • Attach the snowy roof to the cabin using a strips of rolled up double stick tape.
  • Cut a piece of yellow scrap paper and attach it to the back of the cabin to show through the windows.
  • Apply yellow Stickles to the windows and set aside to dry.

Come see how I made this pretty pop up box card for Christmas.

The Trees and Cabin

  • Cut seven trees from the Tree in Oval using green cardstock.  Note:  I cut pieces of cardstock to fit over the tree only so I don’t waste paper cutting the frame.
  • Cut 2 sections of the Pine Tree Forest.
  • Stamp the Splatter Background on all the trees and emboss wit white embossing powder.
  • Tuck the trees in between the snow layers and attach to the card base and snow layers using multiple layers of mounting tape. 
  • Attach the trees to the box flaps using mounting tape.
  • Tuck the cabin in behind the front snow layer and attach using double stick tape.  Note:  I created a brace using scrap cardstock and attached it to the back of the cabin to make it more secure.

The Deer, Greenery and Birds

  • Cut the deer using white cardstock.
  • Apply Antique Linen and Vintage Photo ink using mini applicators.  Check out my Coloring Die Cut Animals tutorial to see how I colored the deer.
  • Attach the deer to the box flaps using pieces of mounting tape on the body and glossy accents on the feet.
  • Cut greenery using green cardstock and punch red berries using a 1/8″ punch.
  • Attach the berries to the greenery using glossy accents.
  • Tuck the berry branches in behind the snow layers and attach using glossy accents.
  • Finish the box by attaching birds to the scene using small pieces of mounting tape.
