Golden Trophy Birthday Card!

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome! I have a very special Birthday card for you today. This card was made for my Daughter who will soon be turning 16. For this card, I wanted to make some spectacular because she is a pretty spectacular kid. I used the Stage Pop-Up, Flower Pot Pop-Up and Popcorn add-on to create this awesome card. 

I started by making a card base from smooth black cardstock that is 6.5 x 7 inches big. I added two sheets of white cardstock 1/16" smaller than my card base. Then I added two red strips of embossed cardstock. 

I die cut the Stage Pop-Up from a dark yellow/gold cardstock. I added gold mirrored cardstock to the top. I used the Flower Pot Pop-Up tab die to add the tab to hold the flower pot in place. I die cut the band that goes around the Stage Pop-Up from glitter gold cardstock. I added more mirrored cardstock and three black sentiments as well. 

I die cut the Flower Pot Pop-Up from the same "golden rod yellow" (I call it that because my parents had a fridge and stove in that exact colour in the 70/80's) cardstock as the Stage Pop-Up. I added a lighter yellow and mirrored gold cardstock to the Popcorn box pieces. I added two sentiments saying "you are epic" to the sides along with gold hearts as well. I added the Popcorn box to the Stage Pop-Up using double sided adhesive tape.

I added thick double sided adhesive tape to the back of the gold papers and die cut the popcorn from that, then I also die cut the popcorn backwards so I could sandwich the popcorn between the grid inside the Flower Pot Pop-Up. 

Once I had all the popcorn and sentiments on the popcorn box, I added the Stage Pop-Up base to my card base. Then I added the band around the Stage Pop-Up. 

I die cut several small stars from a die set I got from Michaels in glitter black, glitter gold and mirrored gold. Then added them down the sides of the card base. I stamped two more sentiments to the card, leaving lots of room for my husband and I to sign her card. 

I then used the Movie Charms to add two film strips with pictures of my daughter that I thought she would really like. 

I kept the same theme from the inside on the front of the card, adding another popcorn box but adding 16 to the box this time. Then I used Karen Burniston's Happy Birthday Sentiment to add to the front of my card. This would be a great idea not only for a birthday but for a graduate card as well! Or really any kind of celebration! Thank you so much for stopping by today. To watch how I made this card, check out the video below.
