I haven't entered a Lawnscaping challenge in a while, so I decided to create a card for the "Don't Forget the Inside" challenge. This card went through three iterations before turning into this card:
I'm digging the black and white, but here's the inside:
Yes, it's a pop-up. And no, I had never made a pop-up card before. But, I figured it out without having a nervous breakdown. It helped to make a base underneath the patterned paper to add structure and also to cut the patterned paper after I had centered the pop-up. I could have just figured out the measurements in advance, but that would have required more thinking than I'm capable of doing at 11pm. Here's the side view:
Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Love this - perfect contrast. The inside is so bright and cheerful!
Oh I love this! Love your black and white front and then when you open it, a huge shot of color reveals itself! That is fabulous! And I LOVE that you made your own pop up. I could have never done it! So glad you played along with us again. We've missed you!
Cute!! I'm super happy to see another crafter from SIOUX FALLS! I feel like I never see other card makers from around here! I am loving your work.
The concept, execution and design of this card are amazing! I'm totally in love with the idea!
I am in Sioux Falls!! Let me know if you come across again great deals here! ;-)

Nice subtle (normal) card front, then... "POW"... we have the inside!! This card is awesome, I just adore your clever style, & can't wait to see what you do next!
I can't believe this is your first pop-up card! It rocks!! Love that DP and the little gem on the key is the perfect touch. :)

Your pop-up card is amazing! Way to go girl! What a fabulous surprise inside and that is outstanding! It's big bold and bright, and I love the single addition of bling on the keyboard!
Eeek! I love this!! PERFECT for "all about the inside." Love the day-glo look!
What a fantastic job w/ the pop up!! I also love the colors. I wanted to make a pop-up card. Stamped & colored a ton of images, but just couldn't do it w/out a meltdown ;) (too much going on in life). Great job!
How fun! I love the black and white outside with the bright and happy pop up on the inside. Great card, Jocelyn!
This is brilliant, Jocelyn! I love the unexpected. super-bright inside. I may just have to, ahem, adapt this idea to my own supplies. :P
SUPPPPPER cute! I love the black front and the sentiment inside with BOLD colors! What a great idea;) SUPER fun!
Gah! I gasped when I saw the inside - how fabulous is this??? Love, love, love it. I find sometimes muddling through a new technique can really help when I need to focus my mind elsewhere.
