Triple Poinsettia Slimline Card

| ullycatdesigns

It’s Sneak Peak Week for Karen Burniston’s October 2024 release of new dies and sentiment stamps. These dies will be available for purchase on October 28, 2024 on the KB Riley LLC website.

Today’s card uses the new Poinsettia dies set and the Season of Cheer and Special Delivery stamp sets with the previously released Twist Flower Pop-Up die set.

Watch the process video to see how this card was made.

Cardbase:  Cut a 7 3/4 x 8 3/4-inch rectangle from light weight cardstock. Fold in half to form a 3 7/8 x 8 3/4-inch side-fold card. Cover the inside panels with gold patterned paper then use the largest of the Long Rectangles – Crosshatch dies to cut two green patterned paper mats for the inside. Cover the outside panels with holly patterned paper. Using the second smallest crosshatch circle in the Circles – Crosshatch die set to cut a window thru the card front by centering the circle die between 3 1/4-inches and 5 1/2-inches from the top of the card and 1/4-inch from the right side of the card.

Poinsettias: Cut six of the smaller flower die from red using the new Poinsettia die set. Cut three of the smaller flower from green. Cut 3 of the flower center from red and three more from yellow backed with double-sided adhesive. (You can glue these yellow dots in if you don’t have double sided adhesive.) Cut six of the small pine branches from green.  Watch YouTube video above for assembly instructions.

Flower Twist Pop Mechanisms:  Cut three mechanisms using the Twist Flower Pop-Up die set. (If using a double-side paper, cut three 1/2-inch by 1 1/2-inch strips of the same paper.) Assemble as shown in assembly video at the bottom of this linked page. Attach center mechanism to show flower through the front circle window. Space out the other two mechanisms on either side and check for catchpoints before permanently gluing into card.

Sentiments:  “Merry Christmas” is a previously released die set by Karen Burniston. The inside stamps come from the new stamp set Season of Cheer. The red dots are leftover from the flower centers. The “Made with Love” stamp on the card back is from the new Special Delivery stamp set.

Envelope:  The card fits into #10 business size envelope. I decorated the back flap by covering it with gold paper and leftover fir branches and red dots from the flower centers.
