This card was made for Craft Roulette #248 whose parameters included a tag(s) , Disney colors, January element, and branch (es) or (ing). I used a Craft Roulette stamp set and two Karen Burniston dies die sets.

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

Cardbase:  Using Karen Burniston’s Tag Book Pop-Up die set, I cut two of the large tag frames from heavy weight light blue cardstock and two more from darker blue lightweight cardstock. The rectangular hinge die I cut once from light blue cardstock. The dark blue pieces I trimmed a 1/16-inch off all edges and then glued the dark blue on top of the light blue. The hinge was glued onto the inside of the light blue panels. (Watch Karen’s assembly video for her Tag Book Pop-Up.) You can cut two of the large tags from patterned paper to cover over the hinge on the inside. (It is easier to do the patterned paper background now than after you’ve glued in the yellow pop-up piece as I show in the process video above.) There are a number of decorator dies that come in the Tag Book Pop-Up Set such as the chain rope and hole protectors.

Pop-Up Panels: Cut two of the inside die piece from lightweight yellow cardstock. Cut two sets of the decorating strips die from dark blue. Follow the assembly instructions in her video.

Nautical Elements: The nautical elements of a ship, life preserver, anchor and ship’s wheel are all die cut and stenciled using dies from Karen Burniston’s Cruse Charms. (You can watch Karen’s assembly video for these charms at the bottom of this linked page Cruse Charms.) The chain rope borders and dark blue background mats are all dies in the Tag Book Pop-Up die set. The tags have red and white baker’s twine tied to them.

Sentiments:   The “Happy Birthday” and HBD sign are stamps in the Craft Roulette Funn Friend #1 stamp set. The “HBD” letters and yellow shade were cut using the stamp set’s coordinating dies.

Envelope:  The card fits into a purchased A6 (4.5x 6-inches) size envelope or larger.

Below is the Craft Roulette Community Showcase show on which I originally made this card.
