Paper Pros April Challenge – Spring Flowers

It’s Spring!  But unless I put some snow on this card, it’s hard to believe!  The Paper Pros Challenge this month is spring flowers so I started with Karen Burniston’s Flower Pot Pop Up dies and the Flower and Bee die.  The sentiment is from Stampin Up’s Beautiful Bouquet.  The card is 5 x 5.

I die cut a circle and made a wreath with the flowers.  The flowers are accented with white gel pen and Crystal Nuvo Dots in the centers.

Inside is the Flower Pot Pop Up and lots of flowers and bees.  When you are adding things inside the Flower Pot and around it, you need to check that things aren’t hanging outside of the card and that the embellishments on the inside don’t keep the card from closing.

I embossed the pot with Stampin Up’s Basket Weave embossing fold and a bit of Crumb Cake ink.  Very springy!  Thanks for taking a look and make sure to check out the other Paper Pros to see what they did with the challenge theme.  Hugs, Fran

Karen Burniston Design Team January Challenge – Birthday Banners

Birthday Banners is the Karen Burniston Design Challenge for this month!  I used the Tag Book die and it comes with the banner piece – so that was easy! The flowers are die cut using the Karen Burniston Flowers and Bee die in Real Red, Sweet Sugarplum, Berry Burst and white with some glitter embellishments in the centers.  The bee was cut out of Daffodil Delight and Vellum card stock and paper pieced together.    I cut the Tag Book in Berry Burst and added some Tutti-frutti Designer Series paper that will be in the new Occasions paper along with the stamp, Picture Perfect Birthday and the Glimmer paper.

I repeated the flowers and leaves on the inside of the Tag Book die.The DSP on the inside is from Eastern Palace Specialty paper in Lemon Lime Twist.

A little bit of sparkle trailing along the inside.

And more banners and bees.  Check out how the banner pieces have the little design in the die!  The Celebrate is from Tabs for Everything.  Hugs, Fran

You can see more cards from the entire team here! Karen will publish on Wednesday.
