Category: KB Twist Panel Pop Up

At the Retreat

I went on a crafting retreat last where Karen Burniston taught a lot of projects using her dies! It was at a beautiful retreat setting in Texas called Whitworth Ranch. Just lovely! So I thought I’d share the projects we did!

One of the projects was this cute Circle Tag Book featuring some Feathered Friends! Those are Party Border Blends decorating the sides.

Look at how cute it is opened! That Ostrich is my favorite!

We also did an Oval Frames card. Do you love the goat paper?

Inside is the cute Bunny from Spring Animals. I love how the elements can be placed on this card.

We also did a chipboard album!

The front piece is a waterfall album made with the Frame Pull die. Karen has a video on her channel on how to do this.

This is the second page with the sweet tag and bird fussy cut from the paper.

The third set of pages – it also holds a surprise!

A Twist Panel is enclosed under one of the pages! Is it pretty? Check back tomorrow and I’ll share the rest of the projects. Hugs, Fran

KB Riley – Brutus Monroe – Cat Life

This Brutus Monroe set is called Cat Life – and isn’t it cute!  It made me think of the cartoon pages in the newspaper.  So I decided to do this card in black and white.  The front has sections showing off the cats and their antics.

I used my gray Copics to color the animals.

Inside features the Karen Burniston Twist Panel die!  It’s a great die to use with a scene 🙂

The card winds up with “You are my favorite human!”  Cute!  Remember that there will be a give away on Thursday!  Hugs, Fran

Paper Pros May Challenge – No Socks Day

The Paper Pros have a fun May Challenge – No Socks Day!  I decided to use some cute Mo Manning fairies and Karen Burniston’s Twist Panel die for my card.

These cute images are enjoying the sunshine – and no socks 🙂  Colored with Copic markers with shimmer pen on their wings, the little fairies spread across the Twist Panel.  The pretty scalloped circle piece is a retired KB die.

Make sure to check out the other Paper Pros – and their toes 🙂  Hugs, Fran

Paper Pros March Challenge – Go Green

Green!  This card is for the Paper Pros March challenge.  I used Karen Burniston’s Twist Panel die and Stamping Bella’s Bunny Agenda for my card.  The front is a scene of bunnies, colored with Copic markers, getting ready for spring using the KB Cake Trimming die bows between the scallops.  The colors are Wild Wasabi, Wisteria Wonder, and So Saffron. I also added some retired dots as accents.

Inside the scene continues across the Twist Panel.  I used the clouds from the KB Castle die.  The sky is Distressed Oxides.

Check all the Green creations from the Pros!  Hugs, Fran

Paper Pros December Challenge – Let’s Twist

The December Paper Pros challenge is “Let’s Twist” so of course I had to grab my Karen Burniston Twist Panel die and make some Christmas cards.  I started with the cute Riley image, Christmas Wreath.  I colored the moose twice with Copics and paper pieced his head so it pops up through the wreath.  The background paper is Stampin Up’s Be Merry DSP (from the main catalog.)  And the sentiment is a Riley sentiment from Moose Sayings 1.

But as with all of the KB Dies – the magic happens within!  Inside I used the amazing Twist Panel die and the Riley Elf Riley image.  The elves pop right out of the card when opened!  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you’ll check out what the other Pros have created for this challenge.  Hugs, Fran

Paper Pros – Holiday Cards

Today is the Paper Pro Monthly Challenge – Holiday Cards!  I chose to use Beachy Little Christmas to make an untraditional Christmas card.  The card stock and Designer paper are Marina Mist.  I stamped the tree and the shells in Momento Tux black and colored them with Copic markers.  The front panel is die cut with a stitched rectangle die.  The shells are covered with Glossy Accents and Dazzling Details.

It’s hard to see the sparkle but in real life – it sparkles!  But the fun happens when you open the card!

Inside I used Karen Burniston’s Twist Panel Pop Up die.  Each little beach house is colored in the same colors from the front and the surf boards are covered in Glossy Accents and Dazzling Details.  The cute banners across the top sport the little shells.

Make sure to check out the other Holiday Cards by the Paper Pros.  Hugs, Fran

Twist Panel Birthday

Some Birthday fun today!  I used the cute Designer paper Birthday Memories to create this card.  The fun part about this paper is that the characters can be fussy cut from the paper and used as is!  There is also a matching stamp set that has stamps of many of the images.  But the REAL fun here is in inside 🙂

I used Karen Burniston’s new Twist Panel Pop Up to make the card!  Again, the images are fussy cut from the paper and are marching across the panel.

Here’s a closer look at the panel.  Such a fun die – no measuring!! Hooray!  Just die cut, assemble and go!  Perfect to pair with this paper 🙂  Hugs, Fran

Paper Pros June Challenge – Masculine Cards

(ETA – I goofed!  This was for this Tuesday – not last Tuesday! I’m a week ahead!)  Just in time for Father’s Day, the Paper Pros are sharing masculine cards.  I started with Guy Greetings (my “go to masculine” stamp set) and some retired paper.  I colored just the pants on the strong man and accented the word Father with a hand drawn line.  But the fun is in the inside 🙂

On the inside I used the new Karen Burniston Twist Panel Pop Up card.  These style of cards are SO much fun, and the new die takes all the guess work and measuring out of the equation!  Just die cut and go!  I added a little message strip on the left side by just folding a strip of vanilla card stock and tucking it in the fold.  The banner die across the top comes with the set – so easy!  Have fun checking out all the other ideas from the Paper Pros!  Hugs, Fran

Twist Panel Pop

This 5 x 5 card holds a fun secret inside.  The outside uses a two new dies from Karen Burniston – the Cupcake from the Cupcake Pop Up, rectangle from the Twist Panel Pop Up and the sentiment from Word Set 2.  Then you open it up to find….

And explosion of fun!  This twist panel is a die that does all the hard work for you!  I decorated the panels with the smaller cupcake from the Cupcake Pop Up and stamped the 3rd panel with a small Happy Birthday stamp over and over in different colors.  The edge is done with a die from Karen’s new Nature Edges set.

It’s so easy to create these fun cards!  No more measuring and trying to make your own mechanism 🙂  Too much fun!  Hugs, Fran
