Birthday Monkey Around

A Karen Burniston Tag Book featuring Mama elephant’s Little Monkey Agenda!  The front also features the Pam Tree Pop Up.  These monkeys are up to fun!

Inside the monkeys are are having a great time swinging from Palm Tree Pop Ups!  Each monkey is colored with Copic markers.

I also used the Tropical Scenes die for the base of the Tag Book.  I just added some trees to the stabilizing pieces.

There are a few monkeys hiding in other places too 🙂  Lots of fun!  Hugs, Fran

Karen Burniston May Challenge – Paradise


What do you think of when you think of “paradise”?  For today’s challenge I’m thinking of a vacation on a deserted island and, if it happened to have buried treasury, great!  I started with some digi stamps from The Happy Graphic and colored them with Copic markers.  Using the Karen Burniston Tropical Scenes dies, I made an island for the center mat and used the waves for the background.

The inside features the Karen Burniston Palm Tree Pop Up!  Isn’t it fun?  This top view gives you an idea of how it goes together.  The hammock is hanging from the tree with twine.

I love how this die practically explodes out the center of the card 🙂  Make sure to check out the other designers card (Karen will post on Wednesday.)  Hugs, Fran

Hello Friend

Here’s a fun card using Karen Burniston’s Palm Tree Pop Up and her Tropical Scene dies and some cute StampingBella stamps.  The card is 5 x 5.  The images are stamped in Momento ink and colored with Copic markers. The sunglasses, sun, and seashells are coated with a Wink of Stella pen and then coated with Glossy Accents.

And inside is the Palm Tree Pop Up!  I have tied the hammock to the tree and added the little sunbather to the hammock.  On the bottom of the sentiment strip, I’ve added Wink of Stella and Glossy Accents to the shells, glasses, turtle shell, umbrella and duck’s beak.

Here’s the sunbather hanging out in the hammock.  A fun card for a friend!  Hugs, Fran
