Pretty Pink! The sentiment on this card is from Remembering Your Birthday and it’s perfect for this card. I used the retired Hearts Framelits to make a series of hearts – one stenciled with Karen Burniston’s Flower stencil and glitter, one with the sentiment and one small heart.
Open it up – and you have a pink Pop It Up Cake with lots of glitter!
Karen has a great video showing how to make this background. But be careful – glitter is addicting! Hugs, Fran
This card uses Flower Patch and the matching die, Flower Fair Framelits. I tried several color combinations – Melon Mambo and Pink Pirouette, Bermuda Bay and Pool Party, So Saffron and Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral and Real Red, Elegant Eggplant and Wisteria Wonder and Pumpkin Pie and Tangerine Tango. The centers are embellished with the Metal Rimmed Pearls. Can you think of any other good color combos? Hugs, Fran
This card is made with the Large Number Framelits dies and a new Saleabration set coming out of the 15th of this month – Party Pants. The 1,3 and 5 are die cut and colored underneath and the 2 and 4 are popped up.
Then I added lots of Candy Dots! Inspired by one I saw online (I think it was Mama Elephant) that used little numbers, I knew I could make this with the Large Numbers (just fewer numbers.) I think this would make a cute kiddos card or switch up the numbers, have it say 29 – and send it to me 🙂 Hugs, Fran
Glitter! This month challenge is glitter. That wonderful, sparkly stuff (that stays with all day) and makes all our cards special 🙂 Today’s card is Rocky the crab on an Oval Pull Card. He’s out on the sparkly sand. His sunglasses are the Santa glasses from Props 5 covered in Crystal Effects. His bright, sunny paper is Stampin Up’s Schoolhouse Designer Series paper.
Glitter is hard to photograph! It was done with the ECD Silk Microfine glitter in Cool Diamonds.
Here’s the inside. The sun is on the mechanism from the Rectangle Pull card and it’s covered in glitter. The sentiment is computer generated.
Here’s Rocky taking a better look! I’m wearing glitter today. Check out the other cards on Karen’s blog. Have a sparkly day – Hugs, Fran
Another catalog case using the new Party Pop Up dies. These easy to use dies make your cards hold a fun surprise. I used the It’s My Party Designer Series Paper Stack. It has 48 sheets of cute designs! That’s a lot of paper 🙂
Inside is the other die – popping out to celebrate. That’s a fun card! Hugs, Fran
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
Isn’t this a great sentiment? This is Love You Sew, a hostess set from the Occasions Mini. I paired it with Number of Years and the Birthday Bouquet Designer Series paper to make this card. I could give out lots of this card – even give one to myself! Hugs, Fran
These Petite Cafe Bags make cute packaging for just about any occasion. I cased the project in the Occasions Mini using Suite Sayings and the Botanical Builder Framelits Die. Quick, easy and cute – my kind of project! Hugs, Fran
There’s a new cake in town 🙂 A Pop It Ups Cake from Karen Burniston! This sweet die (coming soon) creates a cake that pops out of your card for a special birthday wish. And it’s so easy to use! Here I’ve paired it with Stampin UP’s Remembering Your Birthday.
Gotta love a Pop It Ups card! Hugs, Fran
Aren’t they fun? The Honeycomb Embellishments (page 9 Occasions Mini) gives such a nice touch to every project. They don’t flatten – so you might want to skip mailing them – but they are just fun!
I used them for tags on some Gift Bag Punch Board bags. To use the Honeycomb Embellishments, peel off half the backing, attach to your project, and then remove the other half. Hugs, Fran
