Pop up cards are so fun and I have a super easy way to make one.

Measurements

Make a template 2-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ and cut on the diagonal
Card Base 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ Fold in half.
Top colored cardstock 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
Cut 2 DSP (designer series paper) 4″ x 5-1/4″ and 3/4″ x 5-1/2″ strip for inside
Inside 4″ x 5-1/4″ cut on diagonal. Trim triangle 1/4″ down on both sides

Mark 2-1/2″ and 3-1/2″ on folded card base with template then score a diagonal line through both layers.
Fold score lines to create triangle pop up mechanism
Glue colored card stock to front of card avoiding the part that sticks up over the base
Glue the top DSP to the card front
Tie twine around rectangle with bow on right side
Cut small flower from DSP and attach to the rectangle over the twine with Dimensionals
Adhere the scalloped rectangle to the front of the card
Glue the two pieces of DSP in the top sections of the inside of the card
Cut out a large flower from the DSP and affix to the pop up mechanism
Add the 3/4″ strip to the bottom section of the card
