Karen Burniston Design Team June Challenge – Set the Scene

Set the Scene is the challenge and I’ve created a Slimline Flaps and Frame card using the Princesses and Knights in the Castle for you.

For this card I combined the top two Flaps. I used the Word Set 5- Royalty for the sentiment. “Queen” is die cut from silver foil and backed is dark gray. The “for a day” is inset into the white banner.

The bottom two Flaps are more images from the set. The tops of the castle have been cut apart so the Flaps can open.

Inside the large, top Flap is the Castle die!

This might give you a better idea of how it looks from the top.

So this is my scene! Make sure to check out the cards from the other designers. Karen’s card will post on Wednesday! Hugs, Fran

All New Dies – Design Team Challenge

Today, the Karen Burniston Design Team challenge is to share any of the new release dies! I chose the Waterfall Card die.

I started with the Flower Plate background die, Castle die, and Princess and Mermaid. The “hello” is from the Summer Words.

I used glue to attach the Flower Plate so it doesn’t interfere with the motion of the Waterfall. The Castle Pop Up is used flat.

It tells a little story by using the Knight and Dragon on the inside.

All the cute edges in the Waterfall Card die make this so fun to use!

And here they live happily ever after! :).

I made this on a top fold card so you can write a note inside. Make sure to check out the other designer’s card! Karen’s card will be posted on Wednesday. Hugs, Fran

Paper Pros – Kids

The Paper Pros challenge this month is all about Kids! I started with the Karen Burniston Castle die flat across the front of this card with the Sweet from Home Sweet Home as the sentiment. I also used the Nature’s Edge die for the grass.

When opened, you find the Photo Collage die with the Princess and Mermaid, Knight and Dragon, and Horse Unicorn and Zebra dies in the frame! Enjoy! Hugs, Fran

Karen Burniston Design Team Challenge for February – Castles

This month’s Karen Burniston Design Team Challenge is Castles featuring Karen’s new Castle Pop Up die.  I made some boxes and tags with the Castle die, Princess and Mermaid die, Knight and Dragon die and the Word set die 5 – Royalty.  This tag uses the Castle die in Smoky Slate, Pink Pirouette and Melon Mambo.  The sky was done with Distress Oxide inks and the grass is Pear Pizzaz.  The little princess wears a Pool Party dress embellished with some Dazzling Diamonds. (Sounds like we’re at the Oscars!)  The tag itself is from the Karen Burniston Tag Book. I just used the Castle die flat – no score lines – across the tag.

Every Princess needs a box for their gift!  Here I used the Castle die flat across a box.  I finished it off with some birds from the Karen Burniston Outdoor Scene die.  It took me 3 1/2 castle strips to do this box.  (A retired SU box – any box would work.)  I tied it off with some pink ribbon from my stash.

Now for your little Knight –

This was done the same way as the Princess tag using Bermuda Bay, Pool Party and Smoky Slate.  I added some Glossy Accents to his shield.

For his box I added the cute, cute dragon in Daffodil Delight!

So there’s the Castle die used flat!  Check out all the other designers and see what they’ve done with the Castle!  Hugs, Fran
