Seriously – easy! This is a notecard using Balloon Celebration and it’s simply stamped in Blushing Bride with a Soft Suede sentiment. Some of the balloons are stamped full strength, some are stamped off first. It gives such a soft, pretty look. Hugs, Fran

Beautiful Ride
This is my take on the Beautiful Ride card shown on page 15 in the Occasions Catalog. I used Pacific Point and Pool Party. (I believe the sample is Bermuda Bay and Pool Party – but hey!) I stamped the car in Pacific Point on Pool Party yardstick and added some color using a blender pen. The suitcases were colored with Stampin Write Markers, fussy cut and adhered to the top of the card. Hugs, Fran
To My Darling Hanging Charm Pull Card
One more Hanging Charm Pull Card from Karen Burniston’s Pop It Ups – this one using the heart charm. The paper is Stampin UP’s Timeless Elegance Designer Series paper.
This is how it looks when it’s pulled up. It reveals an embossed sentiment from Stampin Up’s Hostess set , Happy Birthday Everyone. Around the outside of the opening, I used Elizabeth Craft Design Peel Off Stickers.
Again, I made this one into a full card. Love all the variety in this die set! Hugs, Fran
Hanging Charm Pull Tab Heart
Sending Love on a string! This Karen Burniston Hanging Charm Pull Card using the heart charm is perfect for Valentine Day. I used Stampin Ups beautiful Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper for the center.
When you pull it up, the heart dangles above the hidden sentiment.
I made this one into a full card. You can leave it as a postcard style if you’d like. You can find Karen’s video on how to make a Hanging Charm Pull Card here. Lovely! Hugs, Fran

Pop It Up Wednesday Sharing Coffee
A Coffee Gift Card holder card!
This is the front and….
This is the inside.
To make the inside of this card-
- Cut a piece of turquoise card stock 4 1/4 x 11″ and fold in the middle.
- Cut a piece of turquoise patterned paper 4 x 10 3/8 and fold in the middle. Align the Sleigh Gift Card holder mechanism in the middle of the score line and run through your die cutting machine.
- Cut the cup out of pink card stock and the steam out of vellum. Layer a 3/8 strip of white onto a 1/2 strip of black card stock. The length doesn’t matter as long as it is longer than the cup is wide. Die cut it from the cup where you want the band to be.
- Die cut 5 flowers from the All Season Tree in turquoise and adhere to the cup band. Attach small pearls to the center of the flowers and attach to the cup. Adhere the cup to the Pop Up.
- Cut the edges of 2 pieces 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 of white card stock with the Paris Edges die. This will give you plenty of room to place the white pieces on your card (see photo.) Trim off the excess. Stamp the small cup from the Coffee & Tea Clear stamp set on the bottom edge of your card.
For the front of the card –
- Use the new Paisley stencil over a 4 x 5 1/4″ piece of turquoise patterned paper and let dry.
- Cut the Paris edge the same way as you did for the inside and adhere to the front.
- Stamp the little cups the same way as you did for the inside.
- Cut a 2 x 4 1/2″ piece of white card stock and add a 2 1/2 piece of turquoise patterned paper to the bottom. Wrap a pink ribbon around the paper. Stamp the images from the Coffee & Tea Clear stamp set as shown. Punch a hole in the top and add ribbon. Attach to the front using pop dots.
Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
Karen Burniston Design Team Challenge Day 2
Or “Jinx in the Jungle!” This 6 x 6 card features Karen Burniston’s new character, Jinx, on an action wobble. He’s backed by some awesome banana embossing! Doesn’t everyone need a banana embossing folder? The paper is Stampin Up’s Botanical Garden and Botanical Gardens washi tape.
Inside, he’s joined by a barrel of his friends! Tossing bananas, no less! They are sitting in Karen’s new Barrel Basket die on the Lots of Pops die. The Barrel Basket die comes with a Pop Stand if you want the card to open flat. The banana embossing at the top is done on the new Pull Card Edges.
Hop over to Karen’s blog to see all the fun designs this month featuring her new dies. Hope you have a happy day! Hugs, Fran
Karen Burniston Design Challenge Day 1
It’s Day 1 for the Karen Burniston Design Team – and it’s Anything New! For this card I choses the new Oval Pull Card die and the new Hot Air Ballon die. The card size is 5 1/2 x 7 and uses Stampin Up’s Bloomin’ Love stamp set and Love Blossoms Designer Series paper.
I also used the new Pull Card Edges. Wow do these dies make decorating your card easy! The mechanism that makes this card move can be placed wherever you choose to put it. As you pull the card open, the Hot Air Balloon moves – cute! All the Design Team cards will be on Karen’s blog this month! Hugs, Fran
