The mice are still decorating! Today is day 2 of Karen Burniston’s Design Teams Christmas in July and I’m still playing with Jolly the Mouse. This card is a 4 1/2 x 6 1/2 card in Real Red with the little mice stacked up high to put the star on top of the tree. The tree is from the Christmas Trees Pop Stand. I just die cut and embossed 4 of them and stacked them off the side of the paper. The present is from the Evergreen Pivot card and was cut in Merry Moments Designer Series paper. The Santa hat is from Props 5 – lots of cute, cute, cute props!

Inside I used the same stamp set, Christmas Messages, as yesterday. There are so many great dies in this collection. To see more amazing creations, go to Karen’s Facebook page! Hugs, Fran

It’s the most wonderful time of the year – a new collection of dies from Karen Burniston! This is a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2″ card. Big enough to hold all the wonderful Christmas joy inside 🙂 The sentiment is a retired SU stamp, Christmas Messages, and the paper is the new Merry Moments Designer Series paper. The swirl across the front is from the new Merry Christmas Pop Ups die.

And inside meet Jolly the Mouse! He and his friend are decorating the new Pop It Ups Christmas Trees Pop Stand! The tree is so much fun to put together! You can use it alone – or with any of the new characters as I’ve done here.

This is a better view of the mice. I snipped off their tails and tucked them behind them so they wouldn’t stick out of the card.

Head over to Karen’s Facebook page to see what the rest of the team is doing with these new dies and get a head start on your Christmas Pop It Ups! Hugs, Fran

Baby We've Grown, Big Shot, Cards, Stamp Sets, Star Accordion

Comments

Happy 4th of July! Hope you have a wonderful and safe celebration! This is Karen Burniston’s Star Accordion Album decorated with some really cute peel-off stickers called Star Buddies from Elizabeth Craft Designs. The paper is Stampin Up’s retired Lullaby. To do the baby animal images, I put the stickers on adhesive sheets, poured glitter over them and colored on the glitter with Copic markers. Els has a great video on this technique here.

I used the Baby We’ve Grown set to finish off this card. And here it is open – with all the animals! Cute! Hugs, Fran

Perfect card for my family today because we have a very sick puppy! This card uses Ray of Sunshine and Karen Burniston’s sweet Buster the Dog Character die and Outdoor Edges. The little bowl and tag are cut from silver foil card stock. The sun was stamped on Daffodil Delight and then fussy cut – straight lines makes it easy! Sometimes the simplest cards say just what needs to be said. Hugs, Fran

Fancy Label Accordion, Flower Patch, Uncategorized

2 Comments

We are still playing the name game for the Karen Burniston June Designer Challenge – matching the first initials of our names to her dies! For this card I chose the Fancy Label Accordion and Fancy Frames dies. The front is the beautiful Butterfly Label peel off sticker done with Microfine Glitter and colored with Copic makers. The sentiment is from Stampin Up’s Flower Patch. The colors I used on this card are Lost Lagoon, Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, Sahara Sand and Early Espresso.

To bring the focus to the sentiment, I simply punched out a circle to add to the Fancy Label die. On the inside left, I slide a thin strip of Pool Party under the Star Fancy Frame Edges to make it stand out. (and to get the letter “S” in the card!)

Rhinestones add some bling to the center of each flower – because everything looks better with bling! Hop over to Karen’s Facebook page to see the rest of the creations for this challenge! Hugs, Fran

Banner Banter, Star Accordion

2 Comments

Our challenge this month was, well…..challenging! We were to make cards using dies that match the first initial of our first and last names! So for this card I chose some Fancy Frames and the Star Accordion Album. The front of the card has the 3-D star, the Star Fancy Frame Edges, some Red Glimmer paper and glitter brads.

The little flag banner at the top shows on the inside too!

The inside shows the red, white and blue – 4th of July card. See the banner showing on both sides? Just make 2 the same size and attach them to the card and each other.

The middle section uses Stampin Up’s Irresistible You paper that has stripes embossed on it. I added a sentiment from Banner Banter and the USA is die cut using the ECD Alphabet 1 die in Marina Mist. The edges are also from the Star Fancy Frames set.

The right side star is not popped up because it closes into the card. I still inked the fold lines to give it the same appearance. So grab some red, white and blue paper and play along! You can find all the cards for this challenge on Karen’s Facebook page. Hugs, Fran

Couldn’t help the title of this post 🙂 This card was created using the Flowerpot DSP. I’m going to be sad to see it retired tomorrow! Notice the little bumblebees holding up the heart. They are a hint at what’s inside.

There’s sweet Honey Bear having a snack with his friends in his Pop It Ups Adirondack chair. The sentiment is from Six Sided Sampler.

Sweet! Hugs, Fran

Congrats from Cheepers

Running late today, but I wanted to share “Cheepers” and her Pop It Ups Rectangular Pull Card. On the outside I used Karen Burniston’s Farm Greetings Clear Stamps and Cheepers, along with a Stampin Up Star Framelit.

Inside is the double of Cheepers and Itty Bitty Banners on the Pop up part. Fun – and useful this time of year! Hugs, Fran

Day 2 for Karen Burniston May Designer Challenge – Barns, Barns, Barns! Here is Virgil the Pig wishing you a happy birthday. I used the new Clear stamp, Farm Greetings, stamped in Memento ink and colored with Stampin Write Markers. The Designer paper in Flower Pot.

The angle on this picture is sort of wonky but when you open the card, Virgil and his barn pop up! I left the doors of the Barn open so he looks like he’s walking out to greet you! Love that about this barn!

There, that’s better! His barn is decorated with a little Flag Punch banner. Fun! Hugs, Fran
