A Pop-Up Get Well Card – Fishing Themed

IT’S TIME for the Karen Burniston Products – KB Riley LLC January 2025 Release Blog Hop. (See GIVEAWAY details at the end of this post for blog hop list.) The Design Team have come together with Karen today for a fun blog hop to celebrate the release of 8 new dies and 4 new stamp sets. Sneak peeks of the new release started last week, and the dies are available to order NOW!

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

Cardbase: I started with a 7×10-inch piece of patterned paper folded in half to form an A7 side-fold card. The inside was covered with two rectangles of patterned paper cut using the second largest of the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch dies. Color center fold gap with marker close in color to patterned paper. Add decorative stripes for side borders. Decorate the outside with journaling cards and stickers from decorative paper collection.

Basket Pop-Up: Cut the Flower Pot Pop-Up main pot piece twice from a dark brown cardstock. Cut two sets of strips with smiley faces from the same brown cardstock. (Watch Karen Burniston’s assembly video located at the bottom of the linked Flower Pot Pop-Up page.) Cut four sets of the striped side and top pieces from the Popcorn die set from a light brown paper. Save all five waste strips from each of the sides to weave through the decorative side pieces to make the basket. Cut one square base piece with tabs from the Flower Pot Add-Ons set in dark brown cardstock.

Decorations: From the Fishing Boat Add-Ons die set, cut all three of the fish dies three times from a silver gray cardstock. Cut two of the heart picks from the Bouquet Bits die set in green and save the heart waste pieces to use as greenery in the front corner of the basket. (I ended up only using the heart pick in this card.) Cut one pail and handle from silver mirror cardstock. (Color handle with black alcohol marker.) Cut three cattails from the Bayou Animals die set from green and color cattails brown on both sides. (In the video I call these bulrushes from the gator and frog set.) Cut five green leafy pieces from the Flower Pot Add-Ons set. From the Fishing Boat Add-Ons die set, cut the fishing rod twice. (If using patterned paper, flip paper to backside to cut the mirror image of rod.) Cut one fishing line from silver cardstock.

Sentiments: “Get Well Soon” is from the Bouquet Sayings stamp set and cut out using the die in the Bouquet Bits die set. The green heart pick that holds the card is also in the Bouquet Bits die set. “Every day is a good day when you’re fishing” is from the Fishing Phrases stamp set and cut out using the second smallest crosshatch die in the Squares – Crosshatch die set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A7 size envelope with one of the jumping fish die cuts. “Here fishy, fishy” is stamped in black ink using the Fishing Phrases stamp set.
