Pineapple Card

Happy Saturday!  Found this cute pineapple paper at Ben Franklin (Imaginisce - Pineapple Days) and knew I had to make a pineapple card!!  Click here to get a pattern.

Open the top of the pineapple to reveal a greeting of "Aloha!"

Cut out three pattern pieces along solid lines and fold along dotted lines.  If using a paper with a one-way pattern, make sure you cut out the pattern so the design faces the right way (see below).  Glue the hula girl on the thin strip, right under the fold line.  Put some double stick tape on the tab at the top of the strip.

Adhere the strip with the hula girl onto the main card piece, as shown below.  Put double stick tape along the edges of the pineapple (between the 2 dots on the pattern).

Lift up the strip with the hula girl and add one more piece of double stick tape, right at the fold.  Remove backing tape from double stick tape and fold the strip back down.

Fold the bottom part of the card up and secure with the double stick tape:

Fold the top of the card down and add some double stick foam, as shown below.  I also added a greeting to the top of the pineapple:

Mount the top of the pineapple onto the foam dots:

All stamps used in this project are from our cling set, "Aloha" (CL-17).
