It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s June 2025 release of ten new die sets and five new clear stamp sets. For this interactive glitter unicorn birthday card, I used several of the new dies including the Leaping Animals, Display Helpers, Whirly Wheel and Rainbow Add-Ons as well as the stamps in Birthday Magic and Movie Night sets.

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

Cardbase: An 5.5×8.5-inch sheet of light weight white cardstock was scored and folded into a side-fold 4.5×5.5 size card. Watch the video above to see how I cut the half circle into the card and cut my decorator panels of patterned cardstock using the Rectangles – Crosshatch dies.

Unicorns: I used four unicorns on the card made with the Leaping Animals die set. Watch the video above to see how to assemble the animals. There are five dies needed for the unicorn – body, underbelly, horn, mane and tail. Cut the tail, mane and underbelly from pink, horn from gold and body from white.

Whirly Wheel: Cut one wheel and one large thermometer from sturdy pink cardstock using the Whirly Wheel die set. Cut one washer from a sturdy cardstock. (Color doesn’t matter as it will be hidden.) Using stencil feature, ink in arrows on the wheel (or use the Whirly Wheel Words stamp set.) Assemble wheel as shown in video above.

Lorna Label Pop-Up: Watch either the video above or the assembly video located at the bottom of the page linked to the Lorna Label Pop-Up.

Sentiments: The sentiments were stamped using the glitter and unicorns sentiment and “Let’s celebrate!” from the Birthday Magic stamp set. The “Happy Birthday” from the Movie Night set.

Display Helpers: Using the lift dies from the Display Helpers, install at either side of the Lorna Label Pop-Up following the video above. (Using the Display Helpers stamp set, you can stamp out a note to include in your card that says “Lift the tab for display and lower the tab to close the card.”)

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope with a die-cut heart from the Lorna Label Pop-Up set glued to the back flap.
