Pop-up means to jump out or appear.
Here, we will demonstrate how to make a simple cookie cutter using a cookie cutter.

◆Things to prepare before making
◆Think about what kind of card you want to make in advance
◆1 sheet of cardboard *It is best to use thick printer paper.
◆A little bit of work time
◆Preparedness when handing it to the recipient
[Pop-up card] Sample
In this example, I will use the pattern image that I designed.
It is designed to be printed in A4 landscape size.
It would also be a good idea to use this sample image to create your own original design.
There are three parts to cut out in total.
◆ Steps for importing drawings into a stencil
1) Extract the image
Click on the sample pattern image and use your mouse to drop it onto your desktop.
*The method for extracting images varies depending on the browser. (Screenshot: Google Chrome)
2) Import it into Clip Studio
Create a new paper using the sample screen as a reference.
Width/29.70cm Height/21.00cm Size/A4
Resolution/300dpi Color/Color Paper orientation/Landscape
You can import it by going to File > Import > Image.
By the way…
You can also capture images drop-out directly from your desktop.
Once successfully imported, it will look something like this.
3) Create a mask area
Create a "New Vector Layer" and use it for mask area operations.
Set the imported sample image to "Multiply" and arrange the order as shown in the image.
Draw a line on a vector layer and trace the sample lines to surround it.
In the example, we used "Direct drawing" and "Broken line 2".
You can easily draw straight lines by placing points while holding down the Shift key.
4) Place a double page spread
Copy and paste or load the illustration you want to use on the spread and trim it to fit within the spread.
Create a selection using the Magic Wand tool.
Select the Facing spread drawing layer and use Layer Mask** to select the area.
Adjust the layer order so it looks good and you're done.
Then, use the same procedure to place and create the background mount image.
Assembling the pop-up
Use scissors or a cutter to cut out the shape according to the cutout pattern.
It will be very useful to have a cutting mat and a ruler to help you with this.
It's easier to bend if you use a ruler and pull the "ridge" of the cutter, or lightly with the tip of the blade. I usually pull it with the ridge. I'm Mineuchi.
1) Let's build in the mount and pillars!
First, cut out the backing paper (background) and pillar parts.
Fold the pillar parts in a mountain fold and a valley fold to create an accordion shape. Refer to the image for the orientation.
Once you put it all together it will look like this. Be careful not to fold it the wrong way.
2) Final build-in of the last double-page spread!
For double-page spread parts, cut off the excess white edges with scissors to achieve a neat finish.
You could also use glue or quick-drying adhesive to attach the pieces, but I was too lazy to do that (lol) so I used double-sided tape that I had on hand. It still turned out well. As long as it sticks in the end, that's fine. Thank you adhesive gods!
The trick is to stick it down snugly along the center fold.
It's OK if the spread part sticks out a little!
Even if there are parts that bother you later, just go with your passion and momentum.
It's important to have an open-minded attitude.
Once you've finished pasting it down, it's happily finished.
Introduction of sample works used this time
*The example image above can also be printed.
*The cutout boundary line for the double page spread is within the drawing creation limit.
I created the background easily using Clip Studio's material stamps.
I think it will be fine to make it like this.
I forgot to mention this at this point (lol), but once it's assembled it becomes very difficult to write the handwritten message in the background,
so it's always better to write the handwritten message before assembling.
◆ Use Clip Studio's material tools to be more effective
Create your own original designs using the wide range of material tools available in ClipStudio. Using backgrounds, stamps, and pattern brushes will greatly expand the range of expression.
And so I'll run a commercial.
◆What you communicate is important
Works example
Trying different ways of making it can give it a unique feel.

Of course, the message is "Happy Birthday," but since a card received on a birthday is a "birthday card" in the first place, it would be a waste to just write "Happy Birthday" in the message field.
It's difficult to convey your feelings in a straightforward message,
but a message that conveys your feelings will make the recipient very happy.
I wish you courage, friendship, and good fortune in victory, and I hope you have a good creative life.

◆I've been busy lately, so this will be the last of my consecutive tips.
◆If I feel like it, I might make another tip.
◆I didn't even make it into the selection for the prize,
well, that's how it went, I hope you can imagine. Oops, that's taboo (lol)
◆Thank you so much to everyone who has given me a "Like! ♡" so far.
