Crazy 4 Challenges Sketch Challenge C4C452

This month’s challenge at Crazy 4 Challenges is a sketch challenge.  Here’s the sketch –

Here’s my take on the sketch –

This is a 5 x 7 card using the new Karen Burniston Tree Pivot die on her Crosshatch Circle.  The strip behind it is embossed using the new Stampin Up Swirls & Curls embossing Folder.

Inside is the Karen Burniston Tree Pivot die!  Such a great pop up!  Make sure to check out all the other Crazies designs!  Hugs, Fran

 

Karen Burniston December Challenge Day 1

This month the Karen Burniston Design Challenge is “Home for the Holidays.”

PIU House Pivot 02

For my first card, I went with the House Pivot die and did a triple pivot.  The papers are EDC Shimmer Sheets on the left and Stampin Up’s Holidays Fancy Foil Designer Vellum.  I was pleasantly surprised to find that the two greens matched perfectly! Since each paper is delicate, I started with a white card base and adhered them to that.  And yes, on the foil vellum I added the tiniest bit of glue under each tree and let it dry!  It’s Christmas!  The greeting is Lots of Joy.  The bottom “snow” is EDC Cool White glitter.

It’s very shiny!  That’s my reflection in the center 🙂  On the inside we find the neighbors – Jolly and Jolly – singing Christmas carols!

The neighborhood has an embossed tree.  Very fancy for these parts!
