Product Description:

You will receive an interactive A7 sized Barn building shaped pop up card Metal craft die. Your Barn card will fit into an A7 sized envelope, when completely assembled (as long as your Barn elements do not exceed 5 inches in width and 7 inches in height). The Barn pop up card can be folded flat for easy mailing or the Barn can be gifted as home decor permanently popped open. This craft die cuts out a beautiful Barn shaped three dimensional building, including a cute (optional) chicken coop at the top of the main barn building. Included are all the dies needed to decorate your barn, including a large barn door that can be cut into the card base in order to swing the door open and shut, two decorative “x windows”, a roof with roof tiles that imitate a metal roof, and a cute little hoof shoe for good luck. As an added bonus value, I am including a cute, good sized, multi layer farm tractor, as well as a farm fence and a cute wind mill to further decorate your farm scene. This Barn can be decorated in several ways, for example with your favorite patterned paper, colored card-stock or ink blended panels. Take a look at some of our beautiful Barn designs for inspiration. We recommend watching our assembly video on the Scrappy Tails Crafts YouTube channel. This pop up barn can be decorated 360 degrees around the exterior of the barn. Additionally, the card includes an interior card bridge so that you may decorate the inside of the barn with your favorite stamps and dies (we recommend the perfectly sized barn animals or our new horsing around stamp set.)

We recommend to cut the Barn building panels from heavyweight card stock, ideally 100-110 pound paper (but at least 80 pound weight card stock). As with all pop up cards, you can decorate the cards with other items from this collection or with stamps, dies, ephemera and stickers that you already own. 

Keep in mind, these Pop up Barn cards can be dimensional and to preserve the beauty of your cards, we recommend extra care when shipping your cards, extra postage, hand delivering, or using bubble mailers or a dimensional mailer. There are many beautiful stamps and other related metal craft dies in this collection that will coordinate well.

Directions for metal craft die use:

1. Gently remove the metal craft die from it’s packaging
2. Using your favorite die-cutting machine, lay a piece of strong card-stock facing the sharp edges of the die and run the required “plate sandwich” through your machine (please note that different machines use different die-cutting sandwiches)
3. These dies are thin steel dies and they work in most available manual and automatic die cutting machines, such as your Vagabond, Cuttlebug, Gemini, Gemini junior, Spellbinder’s Platinum, Big Kick, Big Shot etc.
4. Dies work on different thin materials, including paper, cardstock, specialty foiled or glitter papers
5. Share your beautiful projects with us at #scrappytailscrafts
