Exploding Card - Thorny Red Rose
An exploding card is very easy to make - just follow the step by step instructions. As well as cards in their own right - they can be stuck onto the front of more traditional cards as unusual 3d toppers.
This one has an image of a deep red rose.
To make this card you need to print out 2 copies of this sheet onto paper, not card. Full instructions on how to assemble the card can be found on the craftsuprint website.

Printed onto 160gsm photo paper. Fastened the backing paper onto a 3 x 12" lime green card as instructed. Folded the 2 main pictures as described in the tutorial on the CUP site. Stuck them to the reverse of the lime green card then scored & folded.
Fastened other side of paper folds to the card using DST. Added an organza ribbon around the card & held it in place with the greeting panel on the back & the 2 smaller pictures on the front.
Looks like a normal card when closed but gives a nice surprise when opened.
