KB Riley – Karen Burniston Dies and Dare 2B Artzy Collaboration Blog Hop and Give Away

Welcome to the KB Riley – Karen Burniston Dies and Dare 2B Artzy Collaboration Blog Hop! Our Design Team members are excited to share their inspiring creations using some of the fabulous products from both these companies. Read to the bottom for information on the give away!

Hi friends! For this Collaboration Blog Hop with Dare 2 Be Artzy, I chose an adorable stamp set and die called April Showers. This image is so cute and fun to color! I started with an open window card.

Inside it opens up to show off the the Karen Burniston Rockin’ Rectangle die!

Isn’t she cute? And the Rockin’ Rectangle was a great way to show the entire image.

For this card, I decided to do the Dare 2 Be Artzy girl in purples and use an acetate front with the Flap Enclosure die from Karen Burniston on the front. The trim at the bottom is the KB Cake Trim die.

Inside, the sun rises on the KB Parcel Pop Up die.

She’s so sweet in purple!

For this card I used the Crosshatch Rectangle, You’re Sweet and Tile Pattern Plate to make the front.

Inside I used the pop up piece from the Explosion die to stand up the sweet April Showers girl.

I used the Crosshatch Circle to make the sun.

KB Riley – Karen Burniston Dies

Follow the Rainbow

We all need some rainbow right now! Here’s a 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 card using the Karen Burniston Tile Pattern Plate to create a rainbow front for my fun peacock!

The first 4 colors were cut twice and pieced together so they would stretch across the entire card. Each piece was then die cut with the Crosshatch Circle.

The Peacock is from Feathered Animals and the sentiment is a sentiment strip from Simon Says Stamp. I added a few pearls so the peacock didn’t get lost in all the color.

Inside is the Paper Frames die – cut from the different colors and pieced together to echo the rainbow theme.

The peacocks actually stand out better on the white. Those cute hearts are from the Paper Frames die set 🙂

It was easy to piece this together, but I rescored things with a stylus before I started to fold it.

Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
