CARD
Front
Taking an 8.5×11-inch sheet of cream cardstock and cut into four 4.25×5.5-inch panels (I used 100 lb cardstock.)
Die-cut two of the panels in the center of panel with the texture die
Die-Cut Texture
Emboss the remaining panels using die-cutting machine’s embossing sandwich to emboss the die into the cardstock (I like the texture this gives to the panel, but it was harder to line-up the stencils.)
Embossed Texture
Using the five layered stencils, color the image with ink (I used a blue/orange/yellow color palette.)
Trim off the panel edges to the embossed die edge
Adhere to the center of card fronts (I used double-sided tape.)
Add black sentiment strips to front
Inside
Die-cut four mechanism arms using Karen Burniston’sKatherine Label Pop-Up L-shaped die from cream colored cardstock (I used 65 lb weight cardstock.)
Watch the assembly video located at the bottom of the linked page for the Katherine Label Pop-Up

Glue the words to shadow
Stamp the verse from the Craft Roulette’s Funn Sentiments #01 inside the cardbase just below the center of the panel

This card was made for CRAFT ROULETTE #286 whose parameters included a dude’s card, sunflower field colors, bird(s) element, and soot. Today’s card uses Spellbinders’ dies and embossing folder and Karen Burniston dies and stamps.
Watch the video below to see how this card was made.
Cardbase: Cut from blue cardstock one 1.5×5.5-inch strip and one 3.5×5.5-inch rectangle. Score and fold .5-inch from the edge on both pieces to form 1.5×5-inch strip and 3.5 x5-inch rectangle. From an 8×6 sheet of heavy blue cardstock spritz with water and use the Spellbinder’s 3D Nautical Knots embossing folder to emboss the piece. Let piece dry flat. Trim down to two pieces that are 3.5×5-inches. (I made the mistake of cutting my cardstock to finished size I wanted before I embossed, forgetting that the embossing would consume some of my cardstock. So it is better to emboss a piece bigger than what you need and then trim down.)
Ships Wheel: Cut two ships wheels with stitching holes – one from black and one from brown cardstock using the Spellbinder’s stitching Ahoy, Matey! die set. Cut one ships wheel without the stitching holes from brown. Glue the two with holes together, keeping the glue from filling the holes. Stitch the pattern using two strands of brown embroidery floss. Glue the last brown wheel to cover over the back threads. Cut one “Ahoy” sign from silver using the die in the same stitching die set. Go over the letters with a thin-tipped black marker. Glue to bottom center of wheel. Using a pencil trace the openings of the wheel onto the blue strip as shown in the video above. Cut the openings out using a kraft knife. Glue wheel to blue strip.
Walrus and Seagull: Follow the directions on packaging of the Spellbinders Shipmates die set to assemble the pair. (I glued black eyes onto the walrus and used a pink marker to color the cheeks on both animals. Also did some shading on pipe with brown ink. ) Attach each creature as shown in the video above.
Card Assembly: Glue the strip with the ships wheel to the lower right side of one of the 3.5×5-inch rope embossed rectangles. Glue the 3.5×5-inch rectangle with the walrus glued to it on the left side of the rope embossed rectangle. Glue the remaining rope embossed rectangle to the back of the card to cover the card flap tabs.
Pop-Up Mechanism: Cut one of the L-shaped mechanisms from blue cardstock using theKaren BurnistonKatherine Label Pop-Up die set. (Watch the assembly video at the bottom of the linked page for the die set.) Attach inside the card as shown in the video above.
Sentiments: Using the Karen Burniston “Happy Birthday” and its Shadowdies, cut the inside sentiment and glue together. Adhere the seagull to the top of the words. Glue entire piece onto the pop-up mechanism, checking that it is hidden inside the card and does not become a catchpoint for the mechanism. Stamp “Ahoy Matey!”to the card front using Karen Burniston’s Pirate Sentiments stamp set.
