I have some fun for you today! I'll show you how to make a super easy POP UP for the inside of your cards! You'll find all the details in this video:
If the video above does not play – click HERE to watch it on my blog.
This pop up element is cut into the inside layer of this card – slits about 1/2" apart and about 3/4" long:
How cute is this guy? I used the 1/2" x 3 3/4" strip of Basic Black and scored every 3/4" – fold to form a box and glue to the card.
And here's the inspiration for my video today – designed by Jodi Petersen – one of my fabulous team members:
Here's the inside of Jodi's card with the pop up:

This joke is not for anyone that's squeamish!
If this story doesn't make you cry for laughing so hard, let me know and I’ll pray for you. This is a story about a couple who had been happily married for years, the only friction in their marriage was the husband’s habit of ripping them off every morning when he awoke. The noise would wake his wife and the smell would make her eyes water and make her gasp for air.
Every morning she would plead with him to stop ripping them off because it was making her sick. He told her he couldn't stop it and that it was perfectly natural. She told him to see a doctor, she was concerned that one day he would blow his guts out.
The years went by and he continued to rip them out. Then one Christmas day morning, as she was preparing the turkey for dinner and he was upstairs sound asleep, she looked at the innards, neck, gizzard, liver and all the spare parts, and a malicious thought came to her. She took the bowl and went upstairs where her husband was sound asleep and, gently pulling the bed covers back, she pulled back the elastic waistband of his underwear and emptied the bowl of turkey guts into his shorts. Sometime later she heard her husband waken with his usual trumpeting which was followed by a blood curdling scream and the sound of frantic footsteps as he ran into the bath room. The wife could hardly control herself as she rolled on the floor laughing, tears in her eyes! After years of torture she reckoned she had got him back pretty good.
About twenty minutes later, her husband came downstairs in his blood stained underwear with a look of horror on his face. She bit her lip as she asked him what was the matter. He said, “Honey you were right… all these years you have warned me and I didn't listen to you.” “What do you mean?” asked his wife. “Well, you always told me that one day I would end up blowing my guts out, and today it finally happened, but by the grace of God, and some Vaseline. I think I got most of them back in……………….…..!!!!”

Oh Lord, Kelly……….that’s not what I thought would be the punch line!!!!!! I hope I don’t think of this every Thanksgiving as I prepare the turkey!! 🙂
Love card pop ups, just adds that extra dimension to the card. What a corker of a joke, still got a smile. TFS
I believe you gave the wrong stamp set that goes with the punch pack as a bundle. The stamp set is on the next page at the top. I only know this because I ordered it. Love the card.
