Hi everyone, continuing on from the Triple Cube card I recently made, I decided to make a 5 x 7 version and add 2 more sections onto the back, I made this during a Facebook live and was deciding on what to call it and the lovely Mary suggested calling it a Penta-Cube Pop Up Card with it having the 5 cube shapes. I thought the name was great and so did many others during the craft along! So here it is…
These are what I would call Showstopper cards, they really stand out and are perfect for those special occasions.
The great thing about these cards is they still fold flat and will fit into a 5 x 7 envelope.
You also have plenty of room on the back to write your message.
The aerial view of this card looks really cool and really shows off its shape.
