Designer Challenge - Four Seasons

 Hello friends,

Thanks for stopping by today, it is Designer Challenge Day and this month Karen Burniston has challenged the team with the theme of "Four Seasons".  I used the Triple Flip Die Set for my card but as you will see, I have added 2 panels.  I have used this technique in the past and I made a video to show you how to add the extra panels.  I have linked that video below as well as Karen's instruction video for the Triple Flip.  This is a slimline card that measures 9" X 4".


Happy Crafting,
S@ndy

Strike Up Some Fun

 Hello my friends,

I have a fun bowling card to share today.  I made it for our friend who loves bowling - each year I challenge myself to make a pop up bowing card for him.  This time I used the Karen Burniston Pop 'N Swap die set to create the perfect strike.  I have linked all the products I used below as well as Karen's instruction video on how assemble the Pop 'N Swap.   For the bowling ball and pins - I used the Scan n Cut.

Karen Burniston small dies and charms with the Postage Collage

 

Hello my friends and welcome back,

I recently purchased the Postage Collage from Waffle Flower and I just love creating cards with it.  However, the best thing that I have discovered is that it works perfectly with the Karen Burniston small dies and charms that I already have in my collection. I had so much fun with this one that I have decided to make a complete series. Each card will have the postage collage on the front with a different theme on the inside, there will be a different pop-up for each card.  One or more for each month that I will be sharing as the time comes, but for today, I will give you a small sneak peek at the card fronts I have started. The Crosshatch Rectangle fits perfectly as a mat.

Let's go camping!

 Summer is here so time to think about a trip to the lake.  When our children were young, we used to go tent camping at the lake.  Fishing was a big part of our day and then we would have fish for dinner.  A good time and a great memory.  When I made this card, it took me back to those days.


This gate fold card is perfect for the tent and the new Boat Pop Up.  Always fun to add a critter and a tree on a Bam Box.  

ENJOY!
