Instructions:

Make a card out of cardstock.

Cut patterned paper to desired size and fold in half. Using craft knife and ruler, cut two slits in center, 1/2 inch apart, that overlap the crease at one end by 3/4 inch. Close the card carefully so that center strip folds at each end and pops out.

From coordinating cardstock, cut a small rectangle. Layer patterned paper. Glue to back of pop-up card. Print message on white cardstock; trim and glue to front of pop-up.

Make a matching envelope. Then trace the top flap onto coordinating cardstock. Trim with decorative scissors. Adhere.
