IT’S TIME for the Karen Burniston Products – KB Riley LLC November 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 15 new dies and 5 new stamp sets. Sneak peeks of the new release started last week, and the dies are available to pre-order NOW!

Today’s card uses the new dies of Greeting Labels, Mini Ball Access Tabs, Surprise Ball Access Tabs and Animal Add-Ons 6 and a new stamp set – Bug Greetings. The card also uses previously released die sets of Mini Ball Pop-Up, Hexagons – Crosshatch and Ovals -Crosshatch.

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

Cardbase: Cut eight dotted lavender cardstock hexagons using the largest die in the Hexagons – Crosshatch. Using the next two plain edged hexagon dies in the set, cut a total of 12 of the medium hexagon from patterned paper and six of the smaller die also from patterned paper. Cut two sets of the Surprise Ball Access Tabs from the dotted lavender cardstock. Assemble card as show in video.

Bee Pop-Up: Cut two ball halves and 12 decorative pieces from yellow cardstock using the Mini Ball Pop-Up set. Also cut one set of Mini Ball Access Tabs from yellow cardstock. Assemble Mini Ball as shown in the video above using the access tabs. Create the bee using the Animal Add-Ons 6 set. Cut four sets of the antenna, one large circle and two small eye ovals from black cardstock. Cut two of the smaller circle from white cardstock and the mouth from pink. (I cut the mouth from white and colored with a pink marker.) Cut one set of wings and two wing vein overlays from clear vellum. Assemble as shown in video above. Cut one lavender oval for the base for the bee to set on using the medium die in the Ovals -Crosshatch set.

Sentiments: All the sentiments are stamped on white cardstock using the Bug Greetings stamp set and the Greeting Labels die set was used to cut the belly band label out. The large label on the back used the largest crosshatch die in the Hexagons – Crosshatch set.

Monster Pop-Up Card

| ullycatdesigns

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s November 2025 Release of new dies and stamps.

Today’s card uses the new dies of Playful Pop-Up, Monster Playful Add-Ons, Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons, Greeting Labels and Rawr! As well as Ovals – Crosshatch and Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch. The dies and stamps will be available for pre-order starting November 24, 2025.

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

Cardbase: I used a 12×12-inch sheet of yellow cardstock folded in half and used the largest plain rectangle die from the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch set placed with one corner over the fold to get a diagonal opening card base. Assemble card as show in video.

Monster Pop-Up: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut one of the largest die, the decorative notched square and the “Y” piece die from blue cardstock. From the Monster Playful Add-Ons die set, cut the large eye and tooth from white. Cut the arms from blue. Cut the eye center and mouth with tongue from black. Cut the horns from green and stencil on the stripes. Follow the video above and photos to assemble.

Monster Body: The body is an oval from the Ovals – Crosshatch die set. The leg is the “Y” piece die from the Playful Pop-Up set cut down. Eye highlights, finger nails and toe nails along with buttons were added with a white gel pen.

Bow: From the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die set, cut from yellow cardstock – the largest eyeball, the largest cat ears and the paw arms. Trim off the paw end of the arms to make a fish tail ribbon ends and assemble as shown above.

Sentiments: Rawr! Is die cut into the green panel before being glued onto the yellow cardbase. The blue shadow was cut with the word die taped inside the shadow die and the tiny pieces from the centers of the R’s and A glued in place onto the yellow. Inside the sentiments were stamped using the Monster Sayings set and cut out using the Greeting Labels die set. A white label cut from the same labels set is for a personal message. The card back has an eyeball and “I only have eye for you.”

Envelope: The card fits into an A6 (6 1/2×4 3/4-inches) size envelope.

Cardbase: I cut an 8.5×11 sheet of white 65lb. cardstock in half to create two 5.5×8.5-inch rectangles that I fold in half to make side-fold A2 cardbases. Cut one cardbase into two 4.25×5.5 panels.

Watch the process video to see how I made this card. (I apologize for the video quality. I was having some technical issues while recording it.)

Cardbase: I used a 12×12-inch sheet of dark pink cardstock folded in half and used the scalloped rectangle die from the Rectangles – Crosshatch set placed with one corner over the fold to get a diagonal opening card base. Cut two full scalloped rectangles from light pink cardstock and four smaller rectangles from flower patterned paper. Glue flower panels to the inside of the dark pink cardbase trimming of diagonal corners. Glue remaining two panels to light pink pieces. Assemble card as show in video.

Cat Pop-Up: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut one of the largest die and the “Y” piece die from white cardstock. From gray cardstock, cut the decorative notched square die in the Playful Pop-Up set, and from the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons, the paws, and large cat ears . From pink cardstock, cut two of the paw backing die, the small cat ears and tongue. From black, cut one nose-mouth piece and one set of small eyeballs. From white, cut one set of large eyeballs and whiskers. Follow the video above and photos to assemble.

Sentiments: The die-cut sentiments of Sending Love and the tiny hearts are from the die set of the same name. MEOW! is cut from light pink cardstock using the die of the same name. The shadows behind “Love” and MEOW! are cut from pink vellum. Pink sparkle heart embellishments finish the card front. “Big Hugs” is from the Cat Sayings stamp set. The labels are cut using dies from the Greeting Labels. The paw on the card back comes from MEOW!

Envelope: The card fits into an A6 (6 1/2×4 3/4-inches) size envelope.

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s November 2025 Release of new dies and stamps.

Watch the process video to see how I made these cards.

Cardbase: Cut from black cardstock a 7.5 x8.5-inch rectangle. Score and fold at 3.75-inches to form a 3.75×8.5-inch slimline cardbase. Using the largest of the Long Rectangles – Crosshatch dies, cut four from patterned paper. Adhere the rectangles to all four panels of the card.

Playful Mechanisms: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut three of the largest die and three of the “K” piece die from a green cardstock. Cut the decorative notched square die from patterned paper. Follow the video above to assemble.

I made one of the without legs bodies into a flying ladybug.) Watch the video above for assembly instructions.

Wild Puppy

| ullycatdesigns

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s November 2025 Release of new dies and stamps.

Today’s cards use the new dies of Playful Pop-Up, Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons, Greeting Labels, Dog Borders and Woof! as well as Go Wild!, Rectangles – Crosshatch and Waterfall Card. A new stamp set, Dog Sayings, was also used. The dies and stamps will be available for pre-order starting November 24, 2025.

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

(NOTE: Below are the specifics for the A2 right pull teal colored card.)

Cardbase: I used a purchased kraft side-fold A2 cardbase. Using the largest of the Rectangles – Crosshatch dies, cut two from patterned paper. Adhere the rectangles to the front of the card and to the inside right panel. (Cut a piece of pattern paper 4.5×5.75-inches and save to cover the back panel once the staples have been added to the card assembly.)

Dog Pop-Up: Using the Playful Pop-Up set, cut one of the largest die and the “Y” piece die from a dark brown cardstock. Cut the decorative notched square die from light brown cardstock. Follow the video above to assemble but do so in reverse for a right pull strip. Cut one rectangle .75×1-inch from the patterned paper. Cut one piece of clear thick plastic packaging .75×2.5-inches and another strip of lighter weight acetate .5×3-inches. Cut a cover strip also .5×3-inches from the same pattern paper as the inside panel. (The .5×3-inch pieces are the guide strip.) Once the guide strip over the pull piece has been installed and stapled in place, glue the 4.5×5.75-inch piece of pattern paper over the card back to hid the staples.

From the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die set, cut from a light brown cardstock the paw arms and the dog ears. From dark brown cardstock, cut two of the paw backing die. From black, cut one nose-mouth piece and one set of the small eyeballs. From white, cut one set of large eyeballs. From pink cut one tongue. Watch the video above for how to assemble.

Bow: From the Dog and Cat Playful Add-Ons die set, cut from red cardstock – the largest eyeball, the largest cat ears and the paw arms. Trim off the paw end of the arms to make a fish tail ribbon ends and assemble as shown above.

Card Front
Card Back

Sentiments: The card sentiments “Go Wild!“ and “Woof!” are die cut. “Woof! Is used twice inside the card and once on the card back. Inside there is a stamped sentiment of “Your dog thinks you’re cool (and I do too!)” was stamped in black and cut out using the largest oval from the Greeting Labels die set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope.

Autumn Leaves Accordion Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for CRAFT ROULETTE #287 whose parameters included “saying hi”, crisp colors, sun/sunny(ies) element, and pennants. Today’s card uses Karen Burniston dies and her new Fall Phrases stamps.

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

Cardbase: (Watch the assembly video for this die set located at the bottom of the linked page.) Cut three of the Landscape Rectangle Accordion frames from brown cardstock. From one frame die cut two apertures in the pivot panel using the stitched rectangle die in the set. Decorate the panels first and then glue the frames together as shown in the assembly video.

Leaf Pennants: From the Tree Pop-Up die set cut two sets of oak leaves – once from yellow and one from brown. Daub the leaf edges with brown ink and then splatter with white paint and bronze ink to age them. Sandwich a piece 8-10-inches of black sewing thread between two leaves (of the same color) and glue in place. Repeat with remaining leaves. (Note: I lost one of my leave pairs, so I only added five dangling leaves to my card.) Using a thin sewing needle, piece a hole into the top of one of the window apertures panel and pull the thread through the hole, adjust length of leaf thread and tie off the thread. (Make sure to only wrap thread one the window frame below the hole as any thread above the hole will be seen and won’t be covered by the decorative frame.) Repeat with other leaves. Cut four picture frames from dark brown using the wood embossed picture frame die in the set. Glue picture frames over the openings to be centered on panel and cover the thread knots.

Gourds and Leaves: Cut two of each of the leaves and pumpkin dies in the Autumn Elements die set. Daub the edges with brown ink and then splatter with white and black paint to age them. (Note: I cut the yellow leaves from a scrap of paper I had inked with red to get that orange mottling effect.) Cut two tiny pumpkin gourds from orange or white with brown stem vines using the dies from the Haunted Tiny House Add-Ons set. Decorate the first and last panels on both sides using the leaves and pumpkins and gourds.

Sentiments: Using the new Karen Burniston Fall Phrases stamp set, stamp “Hello Gourd-geous!” “Warm Autumn Wishes” and “May your fall be crisp, cozy and colorful” onto white cardstock. Die cut using the last two phrases using the two smallest label dies in the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch set. Using a paper trimmer, cut the first phrase into a .8-inch wide stripe and cut a triangle from each end to make it into a fishtail banner. Using the Tropical Scene die set, cut the sun rays from orange and the circle from yellow and glue together to illustrate “Warm Autumn Wishes.”

Card Assembly: Line up the accordion frames in the order you desire after decorating the panels front and back. Train the folds on the frames and panels. Glue the large frames tabs first. Trim off the unused tab. Once the glue has set on the tabs, train the pivot panels movement. Decide which way the panels will move when open and closed. Glue the panels together having one connection behind the joining frames and the other connection going in front of the joining frames. Trim off unused panel tab.

Envelope: The card fits into a mini slimline envelope.

Pumpkin Spice Coffee

| ullycatdesigns

There’s a new mini release of five new stamp sets from Karen Burniston. For this card I’ve used the new Fall Phrases and Coffee Chat sentiment stamps along with previously released die sets – Fancy Label Accordion, Haunted Tiny House Add-Ons, Tea and Coffee Pop-Up and Fancy Solid Frame.

Cardbase: Cut three of the accordion frames from a plaid cardstock and followed the the assembly video for the Fancy Label Accordion die set. (Assembly video is at the bottom of the linked page for the die set.) Glue the frames together using the long tabs. Cut three sets of the Fancy Solid Frame and adhere to the back side of the accordion frames to hide the connecting tabs.

Card Front: Using the decorator dies in the Fancy Label Accordion set, cut a large plaid label and a smaller white label. Stamp on the white label “Let’s give ’em pumpkin to talk about” from the Fall Phrases stamp set. Glue the labels together and them on to the back of the lead pivot panel. From orange and green cardstock, cut and emboss the small pumpkin from the Haunted Tiny House Add-On die set. Glue to the label.

Coffee Mugs: Cut three of the mugs from white cardstock and two from the plaid cardstock using the Tea and Coffee Pop-Up die set. Stamp coffee sentiments onto the white mugs using the Coffee Chat stamp set. Adhere the mugs to the front and back of the pivot panels.

Sweater Weather Pop-Up Card

| ullycatdesigns

There’s a new mini release of five new stamp sets from Karen Burniston. For this card I’ve used the new Fall Phrases sentiment stamps along with previously released die sets – Cupcake Pop-Up, Coffee Charms, Tiny Trees Pop-Up, Border Blends – Trims, Bam Box Pop-Up and Display Helpers.

Watch the video below to learn how I made this card.

Cardbase: Start with an 11×4.25-inch rectangle of cream colored cardstock. Score and fold at 5.5-inches to form an A2 (4.25×5.5-inch) side-fold card. Watch video above for how the four panels are covered.

Card Back

Card Front: Cut a 4.125×5.25-inch rectangle of cream cardstock. Cut .5-inch wide stripes of decorative paper to be used as a mat behind the rectangle above. Adhere strips as shown in video above to the front panel of the cardbase.

Watch the assembly videos at the bottom of each of the dies’ linked pages. Die cut from red and orange cardstock backed with double-sided tape (I had scraps from cutting rainbows) lots of the two types of leaves in the Tiny Trees Pop-Up set. Use brown ink to age the leaves.

From the Border Blends – Trims die set, cut six of the wave strands in die #1. Weave/braid two strands together as shown in the video above. Repeat with rest of strands to form the three cable sweater stripes that are on the front panel. Glue in the center of the cream panel. trim as needed.

Cut and assemble two coffee cups-to-go from the Coffee Charms set. (I used the package design to make mine.)

Once the leaves were added to the panel, I splattered some bronze ink onto the panel and then added some flat glitter spots. My leftover leaves were used to decorate the card back and the inside of the card.

Pop-Up Platform: Watch the assembly video at the bottom of the Cupcake Pop-Up linked page. Then follow the steps in the video above for how I glued the pop-up platform into the card. I added a display helper to keep the card open. Watch the assembly video for the Display Helpers to see how the “LIFT” piece is installed. (Circled in photo below.)

Card Front

Sentiments: All the sentiments were stamped in black ink using the Fall Phrases stamps set. They were cut and embossed using various dies in the Bam Box Pop-Up set. See the video above for how the labels were embossed.
