There is a cute, little pyramid box die in the Occasions Catalog that matches the Playful Pals stamp set.  But the box die can be used for so much more.  Here are few animals I made using both the stamp set and the die. For this post, I made a few other things – first a strawberry.  Done in Real Red and Old Olive with the Basic Black marker for the seeds.

The leaf part is made with the Flower Patch stamp set and matching die.  I punched a hole through the top sections and tied a ribbon to make a hanger.

Then I coated each “seed” with Crystal Effects to make them shine.

Pyramid Box chicken

This little chick was cased from an ad I saw in a magazine – that was not in English!  At first I thought it was a Stampin Up ad – but I’m not sure, since I couldn’t read it and Google couldn’t translate what was written on a photo.  (I tried)  The red part is a retired Boho Hearts punch (not sure that’s really the name – 3 hearts on a whale punch).  The beak is a small heart.

The wings are another retired punch – but could be done in any shape that’s fairly round.  Hugs, Fran

Flower Patch 04

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

Flower Patch 02

 

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

Chilly 03

Today is Challenge day for the Karen Burniston Design Team!  This month we were challenged to use the characters – Chilly, Hoppy and Poppy!  On this project I used Chilly to decorate a jar for gift giving.  There are 6 Chillies around this blue Bell jar and some sweet snowflakes from Karen’s Garden Bench die.  I added rhinestones so he could have some bling.

I used Stampin Up’s Oh My Goodies to make the label for the top which matches the  Deco Label Collection Framelits – that were designed by Karen!  Stamped in Real Red and then again in Basic Black, the center is punch with an oval punch and popped up.  I tied the rim with some Real Red cotton ribbon.  Then I filled the jar with peppermints!

Hoppy 03

Next I made a card using Stampin Up’s new In Colors and Flowerpot Designer Series paper. Again I used Oh My Goodies and the Deco Label Collection for the front. The edges of the card are done using two of Karen’s Agatha edges.

Hoppy 03 inside

And inside is Hoppy on Karen’s Lorna Label PopUp.  He’s sitting by his pond with a Stampin’ Up’s Just Sayin die cut with the Chalk Talk dies.  Hoppy comes with his own lily pad and flies!  I attached the flies to some fishing line and mounted them between the lily pads.

The flower is from Stampin Up’s Flower Patch (that also has a matching Framelit set.)  Hoppy is done in Garden Green and Pear Pizzazz.  His “pond” is in Lost Lagoon.  Hope you are enjoying meeting the characters!  Check out the rest of the gang by visiting Karen’s Facebook page and seeing what the rest of the team has created!  And come back tomorrow to see what’s going on with Poppy!  Hugs, Fran
