Star Accordion 01

 

Happy 4th of July!  Hope you have a wonderful and safe celebration!  This is Karen Burniston’s Star Accordion Album decorated with some really cute peel-off stickers called Star Buddies from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  The paper is Stampin Up’s retired Lullaby.  To do the baby animal images, I put the stickers on adhesive sheets, poured glitter over them and colored on the glitter with Copic markers.  Els has a great video on this technique here.

I used the Baby We’ve Grown set to finish off this card.  And here it is open – with all the animals!  Cute!  Hugs, Fran

Ray of Sunshine 01

 

Perfect card for my family today because we have a very sick puppy!  This card uses Ray of Sunshine and Karen Burniston’s sweet Buster the Dog Character die and Outdoor Edges.  The little bowl and tag are cut from silver foil card stock.  The sun was stamped on Daffodil Delight and then fussy cut – straight lines makes it easy!  Sometimes the simplest cards say just what needs to be said.  Hugs, Fran

Couldn’t help the title of this post 🙂  This card was created using the Flowerpot DSP.  I’m going to be sad to see it retired tomorrow! Notice the little bumblebees holding up the heart.  They are a hint at what’s inside.

There’s sweet Honey Bear having a snack with his friends in his  Pop It Ups Adirondack chair.  The sentiment is from Six Sided Sampler.

PIU Cheepers 02

Running late today, but I wanted to share “Cheepers” and her Pop It Ups Rectangular Pull Card.  On the outside I used Karen Burniston’s Farm Greetings Clear Stamps and Cheepers, along with a Stampin Up Star Framelit.

Inside is the double of Cheepers and Itty Bitty Banners on the Pop up part.  Fun – and useful this time of year!  Hugs, Fran

Day 2 for Karen Burniston May Designer Challenge – Barns, Barns, Barns!  Here is Virgil the Pig wishing you a happy birthday.  I used the new Clear stamp, Farm Greetings, stamped in Memento ink and colored with Stampin Write Markers.  The Designer paper in Flower Pot.

The angle on this picture is sort of wonky but when you open the card, Virgil and his barn pop up!  I left the doors of the Barn open so he looks like he’s walking out to greet you!  Love that about this barn!

There, that’s better!  His barn is decorated with a little Flag Punch banner. Fun!  Hugs, Fran

PIU Brownie 02

Today is day one for Karen Burniston’s Design Team May Challenge – Barns, Barns, Barns!  And I bring you Brownie the Cow getting ready to party 🙂  The stamp is from Life’s Adventure (a Stampin Up hostess set that’s getting ready to retire!) on some very fun Birthday Bash Designer Series paper.

The cake was colored with Copic markers and the party hat is from Karen’s Props 2 die set.

And here’s the herd at the barn- what a celebration!  The barn Pop It Ups stand fits perfectly into the fold – holding up the barn (which is holding up the cows!) The word bubble is computer generated and the sentiment is from Sassy Salutations.  The balloons (from the Spiral Pull Card die) are on fishing line.  You can easily face the cows in any direction by simply flipping the die cuts over.

I added 1 3/4″ to my barn to make it higher by simply gluing an extra piece of yardstick on the bottom of the front and back barn. You can check out all the other cards on Karen’s Facebook page!  Hugs, Fran

Rectangular Accordion 06

There are a lot of finals going on in my family!  This card is going out to one of the hard-working students:)  The image is Saturated Canary (Reader), colored with Copics.  The paper is Back to Black on a Pop It Ups Rectangular Accordion Album.

The center image says it all!  But the best part is when you look at the back you will see –

She may not ever look at the back – but I know it’s there!  Funny, Aunt Fran 🙂

PIU Cheepers 01

Here is Ms Cheepers – a new die from Karen Burniston – blinged out for the front of a card!  She is strutting her stuff on some pretty Flower Pot Designer Series paper wearing her pearls.

PIU Cheepers 01 open

Her friends are nesting on the Pop It Up Barn Pop Stand and the sentiments were created in My Digital Studio. Because I used card stock to create these chicks, it was easy to turn them in either direction.  (DSP is easy too – just takes some thinking.)  To cover the back of the Pop Up stand, I used a 1 1/4″ x 3 piece of card stock, scored at 1/4.”

PIU Barn 01

Loving this new barn die from Karen Burniston!  We have a farm and our barns are black with red roofs and trim, so I decided to make this one look like ours.  Using Real Red and Basic Black I cut the barn and used it on the front of the card.  When the doors open you can see the Hay There die. The Sunshine is from the So You stamp set in the mini catalog.

And here are all the characters – Brownie the Cow (1022), Virgil the Pig (1024) and Cheepers the Chicken (1024) with a computer generated sentiment on the Pop It Ups Lots of Pops die.

The little banner is punched from the banner punch.  Wouldn’t these guys put a smile on someone’s face?  Hugs, Fran
