Karen Burniston Design Team Challenge Day 2

PIU Jinx 02

Or “Jinx in the Jungle!”  This 6 x 6 card features Karen Burniston’s new character, Jinx, on an action wobble.  He’s backed by some awesome banana embossing!  Doesn’t everyone need a banana embossing folder?  The paper is Stampin Up’s Botanical Garden and Botanical Gardens washi tape.

PIU Jinx 02 open

Inside, he’s joined by a barrel of his friends!  Tossing bananas, no less!  They are sitting in Karen’s new Barrel Basket die on the Lots of Pops die. The Barrel Basket die comes with a Pop Stand if you want the card to open flat. The banana embossing at the top is done on the new Pull Card Edges.

PIU Halloween 01

Characters in Costumes – Day 2 🙂  And which holiday makes us think of costumes more than Halloween?  So starting with a 4 1/2 x 8 1/2 card, stamped with this awesome image from Stampin Up’s Six Sayings (hostess set in the Holiday Mini)

And here are the characters!  Everyone is dressed up in their costume for Halloween and popping up on a Lots of Pops die.   The All Season Tree is in the background.  The wagon is hand cut.

Cheepers the Chicken is dressed as a cowboy. Chilly the Penguin is wearing an Owl mask.  William the Goat is wearing funny glasses and a bow tie.  And Cocoa the Horse is dressed up as bandit.

Hope there’s lots of chocolate involved!  Take time to check out all the other Characters in Costumes on Karen’s Facebook Page.  Hugs, Fran

Crazy 4 Challenges C4C302

I’ve been asked to be the guest designer with the “Crazies” over at Crazy 4 Challenges this month!  The first challenge is to make a card showing how you’re going to celebrate Labor Day.  I will be spending time at our farm having a bonfire – and that means s’mores!  I thought I make a card for my niece who won’t be able to join us.

PIU Brownie 05

 

I used Karen Burniston’s Brownie the Cow (we raised black angus!) and Agatha Edges on the front with a SU sentiment from Wetlands.  The leaves are from Karen’s All Season Tree.

And here’s the inside – Lots of Pops with a computer generated sentiment.

The logs are from the Pop It Ups Fence Pop Stand and the flames are Cocoa the Horse’s mane and tail and Wiliam the Goat’s goat-tee!

So that’s where I’ll be – sitting with the cows making s’mores!

Check out all the other Crazy’s designs for this challenge and play along!  Hugs, Fran
