Birdcage Popup Card and Giftbox – Part 2

by 14 comments


Hi there blog friends.  So far so good, right?  If you are just joining,  I’m sharing a tutorial of a Birdcage Popup Card and Giftbox and yesterday’s tutorial will help you make the card portion.    For today, we’re going to put together the box portion of the project and I’m sharing the supplies list again.  Hang in there with me – today may seem fairly simple by by breaking things up it leaves me ample room to expand the final tutorial for tomorrow.  Instructions are © Becca Feeken – 2011 and cannot be repackaged, reposted on another blog or website, sold on their own or as a class.  As always, I ask you to honor the time I have invested in bringing you a unique tutorial by acknowledging credit with a link back to this post.  So, let’s get started.

Thanks so much for joining me for part two of the bird cage tutorial. Between instructions yesterday and today, we’ve managed to construct the shell that will house the pop up cage – a card and box.  All that’s left is the bird cage and securing it.  I hope you’ll join me tomorrow as we walk though it.

    Thanks for part 2. Many of my cards are too high for an envelope so now I can make a box for them to go in.ReplyCancel

    Thank you for the humungous amount of work you put into this tutorial. You’re a natural teacher, quite aside from the outstanding crafts. It’s appreciated.ReplyCancel

    Thank you for all you do Becca. I’ve learned so much from you and you are so creative. Please don’t give up on us. I just started paper crafting again in Feb and bought my die cutting machine in March and slowly buying my supplies, so I have a lot to do to catch up to your newest designs, keep them coming. I have a lot on my “to do list”. Thanks againReplyCancel
