Hi Stamping Friends, 

Have you seen the fun 3D birthday card insides you can create with the Party Pop Ups Thinlits?  If not, be sure to check out the Party Pop Ups video to see them in action!  They definitely get my Too Cool seal of approval!

I love that you can make pop ups to surprise & delight the recipient as they open the card, but you can also use these intricate die-cuts as focal points on the front of your cards, too!

Today, I'm sharing Two Cool cards that use the Party Pop Ups die-cuts as embellishments for quick & easy cards, courtesy of two talented stamping friends!

#1) Hip Hip Hooray Party Pop-Up Card

Christi Beck shared this quick & cute birthday card using the hip hip hooray sentiment from the Party Pop Up Thinlits.   

Background Basics—Christi started by adhering 1" x 5-1/2" strips of It's My Party Designer Series Paper along the top and bottom edges of a Whisper White card base. 

Hooray Focal Point—Round the corners of a 4" x 2-1/2" piece of Melon Mambo card stock with the Corner Rounder Punch and adhere with SNAIL to the card front at an angle. Die-cut the hip hip hooray Party Pop Up from Crushed Curry card stock and attach to the card from with Dimensionals.

TIPS: The Precision Plate will help you get accurate cuts and the Die Brush will help the die-cut pieces release from the die.

Finishing Touches—Tie a bow with the Melon Mambo/Black Baker's Twine and adhere to the top corner with a Glue Dot.  Then add a few It's My Party Enamel Dots on the die-cut.  

DONE!  How easy is that?! No stamps or inks needed!

#2) Party Pop Up Birthday Cake Card

Kay Kalthoff created another simple & sweet birthday card using the Party Pop Ups the same kind of way! 

Background Basics—Kay started by adding a strip of It's My Party Washi Tape across the center of a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of It's My Party Designer Series Paper, then adhering that to a Bermuda Bay card base. 

Cake Focal Point—Create a foundation for the die-cut by cutting a Deco Label from a light patterned It's My Party DSP sheet.  Cut the Party Pop Ups birthday cake die-cut from Bermuda Bay card stock, then adhere to the label with the Fine Tip Glue Pen. Adhere the whole label to the card front with Dimensionals.

Finishing Touches—Tie a bow from the Melon Mambo/Black Baker's Twine and attach with a Glue Dot. 

Woohoo!  That one was so fast, too!
