Karen Burniston Design Team March Challenge – Coffee and Cake

Garden in Bloom, KB Coffee Cup

This month’s challenge for the Karen Burniston Design is Coffee and Cake – which will you choose?  I chose coffee (though I’m not opposed to cake with my coffee!)  Using the Coffee Pop Up die and some retire Stampin Up patterned paper, I created 2 cards.

The sentiment on the front is from Garden in Bloom and featured the Pansy punch.

Inside is the wonderful Coffee Pop Up die that has little tabs on the cup to hold a gift card.  The card then works with the Pop Up piece.  A light weight paper works best with the cup and patterned paper is wonderful.

I decorated my coffee cup with the included die and another pansy.  Make sure to check out the other designers!  It’s a great coffee break 🙂  Hugs, Fran

Stylized Birthday

Garden in Bloom, Paisleys & Posies, Stylized Birthday
Comments

Totally inspired by a Jennifer McGuire card, these feature the Stylized Birthday stamp set.

For this one I stamped the background using Paisleys & Posies stamp set in Versamark and then sponged ink over it.  (Night of Navy, Marina Mist, Wild Wasabi, Crushed Curry and Daffodil Delight)  The sentiment was stamped on a stitched Framelit and the top Paisley stamped above it.  Little enamel dots and Dazzling Details were added.

This was done the same way using Garden in Bloom with Bermuda Bay, Pool Party, Pear Pizzazz and Wild Wasabi.  Very fun to make!  Hugs, Fran
