 Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Crowd thank you for watching my tutorial today. I'm going to be showing you how to make this a really fun wiper card. I have made one of these before it was about two years ago I will link it up here that was a six by six version and today I'm going to be showing you the five by seven version they're really fun to make if you're not sure what a wiper card is this is what it does so it acts just like a wiper on your car and whatever it is that you've got on there will shoot up and it's brilliant it's really really fun so this is using a new stamp set that I've got which I'll show you in a moment it says there have a blast on your special day you've got mum there kind of you know open arms enjoy yourself just to get such a lovely stamp set he's there about to tuck into a bit of chocolate cake and there's a nice sunday there as well and then I've got the happy birthday and the whole thing does stand up as well it will fold like I said down to a five by seven and then on the back you've got plenty of room to write your message so let me show you how to make it okay so I've done a lot of the stuff I'm using my ever blend markers so rather than show you a high speed video I'm going to leave that out today because you would have seen it in other tutorials so I will link them below they're really nice I've been enjoying using them a lot so the sentiment on the back which is this one here wishing you a day of happiness is from this set I use it tons now it's it's just so handy so that's that one then to do that lovely happy birthday which is the same one that I used for those border cards that I shared a couple of weeks ago it's just so nice because you can have it separate or together so it's this one here it's the bright rows of birthday words and it's this one which I've just stuck together there and then run it through my die machine and you will get this here and we cut that down to size when we get to it and then this is the lovely set let me just grab something to go on the back here so you can just see these are the ones I've really kind of used those three and obviously mum there I'm saying mum because she is for this one and the sunday next to her as well but you've got really nice puns and it's just really good and I believe well when I'm doing this recording it's currently $2.99 on craft stash I hopefully it's still available by the time this goes out because it's a brilliant A4 size stamp set okay so for this card you want two pieces of five by ten I actually forgot to cut the main pieces I'm just cutting my two pieces here okay and along the long side on both pieces you want to score it one and a half and three okay so again on this one one and a half and three and then you just want to fold one as a valley and one as a mountain okay so you have like a z-fold and again like so so I've got my valley and mountain and then you'll just flip one around turn it upside down and then it will go on the back like so you just basically want to reverse them so that's what you have so that's our card base it's really really easy then to do your front mat and layer you want two pieces of well in my case I've got the white and then for the back I've got the red these are both six and three quarters by four and three quarters and then the layer on top is six and a half by four and a half so there's my six and a half by four and a half in white and that's what I stamped my sentiment on so I've stuck those pieces both down because you didn't need to see me do that and then I can stick them during the tutorial then you want four pieces for your side sections okay so you've got the white piece is one and a quarter by four and three quarters and then the red piece is one by four and a half okay so four pieces again I've already gone and stuck the layer on because you didn't need to watch me do that now for the acetate piece you don't have to have acetate I am using acetate because I'm using that rocket I think it looks really good and it does you know give the effect that it is kind of flying if you're doing something completely different so I'm aware that not everybody's going to do this design you could do lots of flowers so a whole big bouquet of flowers bursts out the top and if you're doing that you don't need to have acetate you're not going to see anything so I would just use a piece of cardstock so I'm going to do the scoring with the piece of cardstock it's going to be easy for you to see but I will obviously be using acetate and then these are all my pieces I've already gone ahead like I said and colored them I think they're so fun and I've kept with the same three kind of colors yellow blue and like orangey kind of color and I've kept that throughout and it worked really well because it worked perfect with the rocket on her dress the sunday then and on his top as well okay so it's you know if you are always kind of thinking I don't know how to color or what colors to do just keep them quite simple and then you can you know easily match your papers because all my papers are plain apart from this polka dot one okay so for the mechanism you want a piece that is three by four and a half along the three inch side just pop a little um do a pencil mark just for the tutorial but I just put a little kind of mark with my tool you want to do one at one and a half okay so there's a little pencil mark there I'll do a little indent there as well okay then you want to flip it over and then go that way and do another one and a half again and do the indent now if you do the indent you'll be able to see that on both sides so I can see my indent here and I can see my pencil mark there but on this side I can see look there's my indent and there's my pencil mark just find the track that will join both of them up so this track here I'm just linking that little notch and then it joins to this track here and just score okay and that's it that's all you need to do and then fold and burnish and do it both ways because it would just make it a bit easier to use okay and that's it that's all you need okay so with your mechanism you've got your triangle piece facing towards you the shorter side at the top here you want to come down I think I've done what's one or three quarters okay and do that on both sides and just draw a light pencil okay just something to give you a guide really this will just help you then what you're going to do so you've got one of your pieces here okay so you want to have it so that you've got a mountain and valley okay so you want to have it so that you've got this folded over like this you're going to lie it down and basically you're going to stick this triangle piece within this second section okay and when you stick it down it should sit perfectly between these score lines okay and then when you stick it you want to make sure that you just pop that pencil line just below so you can't see it so it disappears you can rub it out if you want to okay but that's where you're going to stick the whole thing down so I'm just going to take the backing off of my piece here okay so I'm sticking mine down within that section there now the reason I've gone down that far is because that's how far I can go down with the rocket that I've got so I'll explain to you in a second so now when you fold that over this will fold under like so okay you can see how it folds inside and then once the back's on this will pop up like that and it's this space here that you've got to stick your stuff on but you can't go crazy in terms of the height for it because now this piece is going to stick over here so the opposite folded ends we've got our folded end here this opposite end is going to go here now if you fold that in like this if you fold that flat you can yeah you can just pick it up when I stick my rocket down and just grab it here okay so says there make sure that's lined up you will stick this down first before we stick our little pop-up piece on so you know you're going to get it in the right place you can't have anything higher than that because this whole mechanism needs to be able to slide in this space so you can go as high as this folder piece allows you but you can cover more of this so if you see below my rocket I've got all that acetate free so if you are having something different but you can't go in my case I couldn't go any higher than that but I think that amount is a really nice size for pretty much everybody you just might have a nice sentiment that pops up there so yeah it's it should I think I've done the right kind of amount really for for anybody to use okay so what you want to do first of all is we're going to stick this one down onto here so I'm just adding some glue okay help got all this everywhere look at all the static attached to me and then ignore this piece for a minute just lie it all down flat okay and you're just going to line this edge up here with the edge of that and just stick it down so they should all sit perfectly over each other and that'd be a good indication to make sure everything's lined up and straight so right now you will have something that looks like that next fold that one as soon as you fold that that will naturally go because it just slides up okay fold that one down okay like that and that will just go over the top and it should all marry out perfectly okay so next I'm going to stick my rocket down now you want to make sure let me just check orientation yeah so I need mine to go there so I'm going to just lift it up so it faces me and I can just stick that so it already pops some tape along it like so so whatever I'm sticking it's got a face down okay and then if you imagine we're going to stick that in a second but just to show you when you pull it it pops up okay so you're kind of working back to front now ideally yeah that isn't the nicest looking but as I always say it's a handmade card so I know I'm yeah these are be snapped up by my friends and they know I make them so it's fine okay so then if you fold that over imagine in a minute we'll stick that down but that's how it's going to pop up but I would say if you haven't made it before and you haven't made your own measurements which I have I would now before sticking that down I would stick this down I would then pop it up and then I would stick everything down but I want you to be able to make sure that it's going to fit in there because the last thing I want you to do is go mad and decorate all this and then it's not going to go into its home so I think yeah it would be best to do it that way for the minute so what I would do is just lay down say you are doing a flower just put one flower underneath here that goes you know near to this fold here and then stick everything else down open it up pop it up and then start building the rest of your flowers because you know you can't go any higher than that flower for example okay so hopefully that's all made sense now I'm just going to add some glue onto this outer kind of panel here this little one like so and then fold in that piece fold it back and then this whole piece here can just go right over and it will sit perfectly and that way you'll know you've got everything lined up turn it back over and there we have it so now my card's you know it's obviously a little bit flimsy so I can start sticking everything down so make sure you've got it all in the right orientation but that piece is going to go over there all these panels are going to go on these so two on there and two on the back and then I'm going to stick that down on there and then it's just down to the decoration on the front okay so this piece here if you have got this because I know some of you do I just want to have mine so that it is total length will be six and three quarters because it will sit perfectly within this white piece here my mat there you can see it lines up with that and that's six and three quarters so I need to kind of eyeball this a little bit but it's going to be about there and then I want to do oh I know why that's not straight okay let's try again so I'm going to come down here then straighten that one off easily saved and then I can do that same border on these ones and then this one needs to be six and three quarters yeah it's a little bit bigger on that end but she is going to go there anyway and cover it so it doesn't really matter and to go behind that I'm going to back mine so I just want to trim this piece down here so I'm just going to grab my pencil just get that cut and then I got this little guy which I had just sat behind the end there so I left a little bit on him just so I could have him roughly there and then that sits perfectly within that section there so I'm going to stick this whole piece down then I've added some double-sided tape to the back of my little sundae there that's just going to go so it's making me hungry actually and then we've got mum with her big open arms I think like I said when I got this in my what did I get video she's going to work you're going to see her use because she's just going to work in so many um cards I mean she'd look great for a welcome home a card because she's like I said she's like got her arms out as if to give you a big hug and then she's going to go and make sure her arm doesn't overhang like so and then the last piece I have done have a blast on your special day which goes with the rocket and I'm going to have that just off there I love it I think it's so good you can go ahead and you can cover that as well if you want or have a you know a sentiment or something on there but do check out this one the six by six it was a Christmas theme but again it gave you a nice idea but it just flows so well it's got so much space in there you can see how it all it will always work because this piece here is pushing that every time you pull the sides here so there you have it so I hope you've enjoyed today's wiper card tutorial hope you found it easy because they are pretty straightforward I think once you've you know you've done a few they are pretty standard to do and easy to adapt easy to add like I said other things onto your pop-up element so yeah I hope you've enjoyed it if you have please give me a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel so you get to see more thanks for watching bye
