Belated Birthday Popup Box Card With Alien Stamps

Hello Stamper! Vicky here today with a fun Alien Pop Up Card Kit that can be used for any age! There are 20% and 25% off on the card kits!!

Here is one of our Card Kits for June. You get 3 stamps, alien, spaceship and saying, and 5 Pop Up Cards that fold flat for mailing. The Moon Full stamp is one that is not in the kit.

I started by stamping the images on Ex-Press card stock, coloring with Copic markers, and cutting them out.

This box is actually pretty easy to make. One thing you will need is clear plastic strips to attach the images to. This is the most fun part~I bought some donuts and cut strips from the plastic container. I also had some donuts while working on this project, BONUS! But any plastic container will work.

There are instructions in the kit, but

here are a couple of simple steps I did to put this box together.

Cut 1 strip of 2x5.5 for the back of the box (long blue strip) and

6 panels 2x (a little under)2 3/4 ~3 blue, 3 yellow

The other side of the box.

You will get 4 strips with fold creases on the end. Adhere the strip near the fold line and down a little.

Adhere to all 3 strips.

Adhere the other end of the strips and lay them flat.

Fold the card in half and lay the last flap over the strips.

When you unfold the box, the strips will be inside the box.

Adhere the little flap to close the box.

Cut your plastic strips about 1/8 thin and adhere to image and to the strips inside the box!

Here you can see the blue panels on the outside of the box.

It really is easy!

I did the back panel in blue for the instructions to see it better but I changed the blue to yellow for the box. I think this box will be fun. I love the 3D effect.

If you want to get real creative, decorate the outside of the box!!
