I have made a pop and slot card but am not sure where I use the card cover

Hi Christine,
Make sure you score and fold the card cover I than just put a little bit of double sided tape on the edges of the outside of the cutout center and attach it to the cover.If you want to post it you have to flatten the tabs inside the card so you still need to be able to get to it to stand the design up again. I hope you can understand what I'm whaffling on about

So you have to physically stand each tabbed item up again every time you open it? I thought that I was doing something wrong because my tabbed items stayed flat when the card was opened again. They aren't supposed to stand up on their own when the person getting the card opens it up?

The first one I ever did had an instruction label to include in your card for the recipient on how to stand it up....I love them..I have found if you use really good quality paper, they will lay down and stand up like the easel designs.

Thanks for that. I printed it out on regular cardstock because it seemed thicker than my photo paper. I'll try to reprint and re cut.

I did use a smaller GSM paper for the cover, a bit softer than the actual card. Good luck with it, they're a great design.
