I made a pop-up card on my gypsy, I welded and melded until I had the perfect little card that does what it says on the tin... it pops up!
I took an ordinary rectangle (oblong to those of us who aren't posh) and welded a heart at one end, next I layered other hearts (all from the 'cricut craft room basics') and an 'i' (with a welded heart) and a 'U'. Here are some photos...
<~~~ gypsy what a marvelous invention
On the inside I stamped some hearts (using a free stamp from a magazine... 'Candi Stamps' and added the 'candi' - by that I mean the little siver circles) with a sentiment (from the same free stamp set) and some gems my little valentine's card is complete!
