WOW TRIPLE POP UP FUN FOLD USING MEANT TO BEE !

 Hello everyone ! I am so excited to share with you a very cute fun fold I cam up with ! I loved Jay's card ( Mitosu Crafts ) & then remembered I had made a card with a very similar mechanism a few years ago so I set to work figuring out the dimensions to see if it would work for the card instead of going to the effort of making a seperate mechanism for the side pop up parts . It worked ! I also skipped another step by using my DSP as my insert so there was no need to cut seperate pieces for it !Smart hey ?

Here's the cards I made .












Now for the stuff & digits ! 
Card base 21 cm x 10.5 cm , scored in half @ 10.5 cm
Insert piece 20 cm x 10 cm score in half , fold in half then place a tick mark  3.5 cm in from each side of the fold line as well as 3.5 cm down from the fold line on the edge of the paper .
With your paper still folded score diagonally between  each tick mark . Gently fold with your fingers , decide which side you want to be showing , burnish fold lines & adhere to the inside of your card - DO NOT put any adhesive in the mechanism area .
The mechanism for the front pop up us the same size as Jay's 1/2 " x 3 " scored @ 1/2 " , 1 1/4 " , 2 " & 2 1/2 " . Fold into a double triangle piece for the stand , watch video for clarification . If you do not have the Perennial Postage dies , your pop up pieces will be cut @ 1 11/16 " x 2 3/4 " ( same as Jay's )
My video is available to watch on You Tube now
