It’s Day One of Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s June 2025 release of ten new dies and five new clear stamps. For this double rainbow birthday card, I used several of the new sets including Arch Pop-Up and Rainbow Add-Ons die sets and Rainbow Greetings stamp set. This card was also made using Craft Roulette #270’s parameters of an A7 card, 1980s colors, interjection!!!, and include an arch.
Cardbase: I used an A7 (5×7-inch) purchased kraft cardbase and matching envelope. The front panel is covered with a 4.5×6.5 sheet of decorative paper.
Arch Pop-Up: Cut out the two large arch dies in the Arch Pop-Up from solid 65-80lb. cardstock. Assemble the arch by gluing the two halves together and then adding the rainbow strips which were cut using double-sided adhesive tape and the Rainbow Add-Ons die set. Make a second arch. Trim off the bottom tabs of the second rainbow and fold the feet of the arch to form tabs of a similar size to what was cut-off. Glue the largest arch into the card first and add the second rainbow checking for catchpoints. Decorate with the rainbows with the sun and clouds in the Rainbow Add-Ons.
Animals: The animals come from the previously released the Monkey and Lion and the Safari Animals die sets.
Sentiments: Other than the die-cut “Go Wild!” all the sentiments were stamped using the Rainbow Greetings stamp set in black ink on white cardstock. Inside the card, “Wishing you sunshine and rainbows” was cut out using the smallest fancy label die in the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch die set with the larger crosshatch fancy label being used for the personal message label. On the card front, “Happy Birthday” was cut out using the oval die in the Lorna Label Pop-Up die set.
Envelope: The card fits into A7 (5×7-inches) size envelope with the back flap covered with decorative paper.
