3D Cat Card DIY

| | | | |

Hooray, I have some super duper cute 3D Cat cards for you today. I actually spied these ADORABLE Pop Up Cards quite some time back on Russian site Clu Clu… and really wanted to have a go and make my own designs! Clu Clu has an adorable Lion and Monkey for you to check out! Do pop over and take a look. In the meantime, I made a couple of oh so cute Cat Pop Up Cards as well as a set of “Cat Puns” to go with them. The puns instantly turned these little DIY Card Cards into Valentine’s Day Pop Ups (You are Purrrfect! You are Pawesome) or Pop Up Birthday Cards (Happy Purrrthday) or Christmas Cards and Get Well Soon cards. In other words – one card design… LOTS of occassions to make and give and above all.. they are darling Pop Up Cards! How I love a DIY Pop Up Card.
