Pull Cards!  The challenge this month is to use any of the Karen Burniston Pull dies to create cards.  Today I’m using the Oval Pull Card.

PIU Oval Pull Card 04

I started with Stampin Up’s Hello Honey card stock base and the Botanical Gardens Designer Series paper.  The cute palm tree is from one of Karen’s earlier collections called Palm Tree & Pail.  The sentiment is from her new Cheeky Monkey Clear Stamp set. It’s easy to layer designer paper on the cards with Karen’s Pull Card Edges – and it’s fun!

On the inside I added Jinks the Monkey on the pop up piece from the Rectangle Pull Card.  (The oval has a slider and the rectangle has a pop up – you need them both 🙂 )

Rectangular Pull Card 07

Here’s a Rectangle Pull Card.  This is such a great card because it has a nice, big front that can hold a good size image.  If you like to color, this is a perfect place to show off your images.  The girl is a Saturated Canary image.

Inside I added a piece using the Paris Edges.  The sentiment is Stampin Up’s Teeny Tiny Wishes.

Make sure to pop over to Karen’s blog on Wednesday to see the other creations from the team.  Or find Karen on Facebook and join the community!  Hugs, Fran

A Coffee Gift Card holder card!

This is the inside.

To make the inside of this card-

  1. Cut a piece of turquoise card stock 4 1/4 x 11″ and fold in the middle.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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 –

  1. Use the new Paisley stencil over a 4 x 5 1/4″ piece of turquoise patterned paper and let dry.
  2. Cut the Paris edge the same way as you did for the inside and adhere to the front.
  3. Stamp the little cups the same way as you did for the inside.
  4. 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
