Happy Valentine’s Day! This card is a 5 x 5 and the front is done with every little heart stamp I could dig out of my stash and the Gina K Wreath builder template. I used the so so pretty All My Love DSP.
The inside features the beautiful Karen Burniston Heart Pivot die with a pattern on pattern design.
Here’s a close up to show you the details. These hearts are so pretty! Hugs, Fran
This month’s Paper Pro’s challenge is masculine birthday cards! I pulled out Karen Burniston’s Coffee die to make some cards that can hold a gift card inside. The outside is decorated with Karen’s Crosshatch Rectangle die, the Happy Birthday die and Honey Bee’s Coffee Break stamp and die that were colored with Copic markers.
One of my favorite things about the Coffee die is that you can slip a gift card in the side of the coffee cup to make it a gift too! Hugs, Fran
This idea comes from the Karen Burniston Pop Up Peeps group on Facebook! Karen did a video on how to make a double long basket card from the Woven Basket die and I gave it a try. I decorated the inside with the Easter Charms and Spring Animals dies.
I tucked lots of chicks inside with the bunny taking front and center. Instead of flowers, I used the eggs from both the die sets.
The bunny’s tail is puffed up with a Marvy snow marker! Come on over to the group and see how easy this is to put together! Hugs, Fran
February is the month of Love, Sweet Love, and the Design Team has some sweet cards for you! I started with a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 card showing off the Karen Burniston Ice Cream Sundae die. The sentiment is a Simon Says Stamp die/stamp called Love You Like.
Aren’t the Ice Cream Cones cute? I added the face to coordinate with the patterned paper.
Inside is the Ice Cream Sundae pop up mechanism with all the lovely designer pieces! The bowl and spoon have a great emboss on them! I also used the KB Border Blends Party die to make the accent border. The movement with this die is amazing.
That spoon really moves as the card is opened!
Isn’t love sweet? Check out Karen’s blog post tomorrow to see her card and all the design teams creations! Hugs, Fran
Here’s a special Valentine’s card for a special someone. This is a 5 x 5 card that has glitter embossing paste in hearts on the left side and stripes on the right side. I added some Petal Pink re-inker to the hearts to make it more tone on tone.
The heart is dry embossed with the Abstract Impressions die and then die cut with a Meant To Be heart. The Love You is from Karen Burniston’s Love Word set. The scallop on the side is die cut with the die from Colorful Seasons.
Inside is the Karen Burniston Heart Pivot die. Note – these colors were so hard to photograph! Most of the details from the front are repeated on the inside.
Here’s a close up of the Heart Pivot. (You can click on the pictures to make them larger)
Such a pretty die! Hugs, Fran
Thought I sneak in another Karen Burniston Circle Charm card using the Get Well Charms. Since everyone around here is sniffling and sneezing it seemed appropriate!
Aren’t these germs cute? Whoever thought I’d say that? But they are a great way to let someone know that you’re thinking of them.
I added some googly eyes to my germs just for fun! Hope you are well 🙂 Hugs, Fran
This is a new die from Karen Burniston called Garden Charms. I paired it with the Circle Charm Die.
I die cut the Garden Charms in white and colored them my Copic markers. I even added a little border on the sides with the new Border Blends Party die.
Behind the center circle I added a piece of window sheet just to give it a bit more stability. Really fun to make! Hugs, Fran
This is a really fun new die from Karen Burniston – Woven Basket. It’s a box card, fold flat and makes a wonderful card!
When you pop the card into it’s box position you have a 3-D bouquet! It’s super easy to put together too.
When you collapse it, it fits nicely in an envelope. These dies will be available for purchase at the end of the month 🙂 Hugs, Fran
Another sneak peek of a new die from Karen Burniston! This 5 x 5 card uses Happy Birthday on the front – and lots of foil paper which doesn’t photograph very well at all! The paper is the new How Sweet It Is from Stampin Up,
It’s an Ice Cream Sundae on the inside! Isn’t it cute? The movement as it opens is amazing!
The bowl and spoon dies create some really nice embossing. You might also spy some new border dies 🙂 Yep – they’re coming too! Hugs, Fran
How about some treat packaging for Valentines Day? I started with the new All My Love DSP and die cut it using the Petite Treats die with the heart topper. Then I stamped the heart from Meant to Be, added some color and a cute sentiment from Itty Bitty Greetings. There’s a frame heart that I die cut and added around the heart and glued it to the treat.
It’s super cute and holds quite a bit! And it’s easy to make up so you can make lots of them. Hugs, Fran
