Hidden Pop Up Panel Card Tutorial with 49 & Market Country Heart Cafe
Hello, Friends! We have a fabulous Hidden Pop Up Panel Card Tutorial for this Wonderful Wednesday session! I’m so excited to share this new fun fold card design with you, especially since it’s made with the gorgeous Country Heart Cafe Collection!
I got the idea for this card base from a photo on Pinterest. Of course, there was no tutorial. So out came my sketch notebook, ruler and pencil. My idea was to add a pop up panel to the card to make it extra fun to open. And the design seemed simple enough. But it took attempts later, to finally “nailed” all the scores, cuts and measurements. My trash bin will testify to this fact.
That’s how much I liked this card design. I was willing to wade through failed effort after failed effort to bring it to life.
Was it worth it?
You be the judge!
Flower Card Hidden Pop Up Panel Card
How cute is this little flower cart card? As with most of my cards, it measures 5″ x 7″. I added a few handmade sunflowers, some die cut frames and a bit of ribbon to the front cover. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
This z-fold style card has a nifty little mechanism that hides the pop up panel. Now it can stand for display and has a cool 3-D effect. But that’s not all!
Hidden behind the front cover art is a really fun little top fold panel. And yes, as the name suggests, you will find a pop up feature tucked inside. There’s another surprise on the back of this card, but you’ll have to watch the video to see that.
Floral Doily Hidden Panel Pop Up Card
What if we made this card on a 7″ x 5″ horizontal base? That could be super cute, right? So I did! (It only took about 4 tries to get it right this time. Progress!)
Once again, there’s a cool pop up card hidden behind the front panel.
Fall Flowers Coffee House Card
In case you were wondering, these cards are rather addictive. Once I got the hang of making them, I could not stop myself. I added some mixed media inking and embossing to the 3rd card. That was fun!
Hidden Pop Up Panel Card Tutorial on YouTube
Would you like to learn how to create both the vertical and the horizontal versions of this card base? Well, you are in luck, because I filmed tutorials for both. I hope you’ll grab a cuppa and a snack and join me for some fun fold card making over on my YouTube channel.
Did you enjoy that? I know I did!
I’ll be back next week with one final Country Heart Cafe project to share with you. Then we will be moving on to Christmas crafting. (How is that even possible?)
In case you missed it, I shared a sneak peek of the paper collections we’ll be working with this holiday season. You can find it HERE.
You will find a linked supply list and basic measurements for today’s projects in the description box below the video on my YouTube channel. I’ve also tagged products within the video for your shopping convenience. And, as always, you will find a linked supply list below this post.

These are so pretty, Kathy. Love your handmade flowers. They match so well. The Wednesdays seem to be coming by so much faster these days. Must be getting old or just always too much to do!
These are just gorgeous!
Your middle name has to be tenacious Kathy. Thanks so much for taking the time to create this really interesting, textured and dimensional Z Card, this is a beauty!
I hope this comment is accepted as the last few have not gone through…..seems to happen when we go away, ugh.
Beautiful card Kathy. Love the paper and colour palette 🙂 Happy Hump Day. Have a great rest of your week and hope your knee is doing great now! Hugs from Vancouver Island!
These cards are beautiful and to think that you figured out how to make them from a photo! Thank you for the video explaining how to make them. As always I look forward to see what’s next!
