Paper Pros January Challenge – Love

January 8, 2019

Love is in the Air! The Paper Pros challenge is LOVE and I’m all for that 🙂 I had some bits and pieces around from a Stampin Up kit and decided they would make a great card. Inside the window is the cake die cut with a flower die cut and when you open it….

You find the Karen Burniston Spinner Square with some wedding wishes. I love these colors and I love the sentiment popping out from behind the cake. Make sure to check out the other Paper Pros and see their LOVEly cards! Hugs, Fran

Karen Burniston Designer Challenge – Anything NEW

KB Spinner Square, KB Tag Book

Comments

Happy New Year! It’s so much fun to start the New Year with a challenge for the KB Design Team! Anything New – a tag book? That’s not new to me 🙂 But what is new to me is the inside.

I used a double Spinner Square card inside – shown by Karen last month. The foil paper was a bit difficult to attach things too – but I made it work.

I used lots of balloons to decorate the inside! Nothing like a few balloons to brighten up the celebration! The sentiments and greetings are from a new Stampin Up set called Itty Bitty Birthday. I embossed them in gold.

The greeting is die cut from black Glitter paper. Hope you enjoy! Karen’s card will be posted tomorrow on her blog so make sure to check it out! Hugs, Fran

This week’s Crazy 4 Challenges challenge is to make a birthday card and put numbers on it. I started with a Concord and Ninth Turnabout stamp set – Mosaic – and stamped it in bright colors. The numbers are die cut from the Karen Burniston Numbers die and the Happy Birthday is from Karen Burniston’s Birthday Greetings. The card is 5 x 5.

I used the Karen Burniston Spinner Square die to make the card and decorated the inside with a Stampin Up balloon punch. The “again” is put together using letters from Karen Burniston’s word set – Happy, Birthday and Congrats. Enjoy all the cards by the Crazies this week! Hugs, Fran

A day late AND using retired products! This is the Karen Burniston Spinner Square and the Truly Tailored suite from Stampin Up.

This Spinner Square is so easy to adapt to any theme/stamp! The block is large enough to show off any sentiment or image. Hugs, Fran

Here’s a sparkly mermaid card for someone special. I started with Karen Burniston’s Spinner Square die, the Princess and Mermaid die and the Outdoor scenes die – and lots of glitter paper!. The background was stamped with Stampin Up’s Playful Backgrounds stamp and then I went all the little bubbles with glossy accents. The mermaids are wearing green glitter paper tails to go with the blue glitter paper wave.

Inside a mermaid pops out to wish the birthday girl a special day!

I love how this die works! Hugs, Fran

Riley the Moose is cookin’! My youngest is a chef and I thought this would be a cute card for her. The star is Riley the Moose and Karen Burniston’s Square Spinner die.

So you can tell Riley has really been cooking up a storm! The hamburger and hotdog are punch art and the bottle is from Stampin’ Up’s Bubble Over. They slide out as the card is opened.

I think she’ll enjoy this! Hugs, Fran

Karen Burniston Designer Challenge for April – Hip to be Square

Bubble Over, KB Spinner Square, Uncategorized

This month the Karen Burniston Design Team is Hip to Be Square! I started with the Stampin Up’s Bubble Over stamp set and matching Designer Series paper and used the KB Riley Spinner Square die. The card is 5 x 5 and has a stack of squares on the front – each one die cut with an opening in the middle. Between the layers I put a piece of acetate.

Inside the bottles pop out and the sentiment swings forward. The bottles are covered with Wink of Stella and the caps and bubbles have Glossy Accents coating them.

I love this mechanism! It’s so much fun! Check out the other designers (Karen will post on Wednesday) to see how “Hip” they are! Hugs, Fran

This month’s Paper Pro challenge is Love. I used the new Karen Burniston Spinner Square Pop Up die to make a Valentine card. The front uses the Painted Love DSP and Gold foil papers along with Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry and Tangerine Tango card stocks. The little heart is Powder Pink, painted with a shimmer pen and cover with Glossy Accents. The row of gold hearts are die cut with Karen Burniston’s Cake Trim die. It’s all finished off with a Powder Pink ribbon.
