Fun Stampers Journey

Pop-Up Chalkboard Birthday Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #306 whose parameters were: A7 card, summer dessert colors, chalkboard element and bottom border. I used a variety of dies and stamps from Concord & 9th, Fun Stampers Journey, Hero Arts and Karen Burniston to make this pop-up birthday card.

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

Cardbase: (Watch the video above for assembly instructions.) Cut from 100 lb. cardstock one 5×7-inch rectangle and one 5×7.5-inch rectangle scored at 7-inches. Using Karen Burniston’s Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch die set, cut four of the largest crosshatch panel from decorative paper. Cut the pop-up tabs from Karen Burniston’s Christmas Trees Pop Stand die set into the inside papers as directed in the video, before gluing them into the card.

Pop-Up Chalkboard: (Watch the video above for assembly instructions.) Cut two sign board easels from brown heavy weight cardstock and two black panels using the dies in the January 2019 My Hero Arts kit. Stamp with clear ink and heat emboss the sentiment and cake image with white detail embossing powder before assembling the easel.

Floral Decorations: (Watch the video above.) My colored cardstock was made by swiping ink pads across white and cream scraps of cardstock. Using Karen Burniston’s Fun Flowers die set, cut out and assemble four sets of flowers in different colors. Cut nine stems of leaves.Cut and decorate two butterflies.

Sentiments: On the card front the newspaper Celebration Times is from the Concord & 9th Happy Headlines stamp set.I printed a generic head shot as a placeholder for the photo of the individual that the card will go to. Inside, the “Happy Birthday is from the Karen Burniston Birthday/Belated stamp set and the “Eat Cake First” is from Fun Stampers Journey’s Birthday Bash set. The white label for a personal message was cut using Karen Burniston’s Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch die set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A7 (5×7-inch) envelope decorated with a stamped sentiment on the back flap from Concord & 9th Happy Headlines stamp set.

Snow-One Sweeter Valentine

| ullycatdesigns

A Valentine for my sweetie! Made with Simon Says Stamp’s collaboration with Pink & Main stamp set called Snow-One Like You and a heart die.

Cardbase: I folded an 8.5×11 sheet of white 65lb. cardstock in half to create a 4.25×5.5-inch rectangle that I cut two heart shaped cardbases from with the left edge of the die slightly over the folded edge. One cardbase I cut apart to glue over the back sides of the colored images.

Sentiments: On the front the cocoa cup reads “There is Snow-One Like You” and inside “Snow-one Sweeter!” and You melt my Heart.” All the sentiments come from Snow-One Like You stamp set.

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