Reindeer Farm Winter Holidays Card

This card was made for Craft Roulette #239 whose parameters included an interactive card, picnic colors, farm element, and paper strips.

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

Cardbase:  I used a purchased A6 (4.5 x 6.25-inch) cardbase and envelope.

Stable & Reindeer:  Using the Reindeer Stable die set by Scrapping Cottage, cut the stable base from red cardstock and inked the edges with brown ink. All the other pieces were cut from white cardstock and colored. The weathervane was cut twice and glued together to reinforce the tiny piece. I made my own wire wobbler springs using thin florist wire and gluing them in place.

Flying Reindeer Mechanism:  Using dies by Whimsy Stamps kinetic collection, I eventually figured out how to make the reindeer fly over the stable using the die cut paper strips and foam dots. (Watch the tutorial to see how I made it.)

Snow:  Avry Elle white ink spray was used to cover the card with splatters of snow. (I had to color over the facial details and shading on the reindeer after spraying.) The trees have white gel pen to place snow accumulation at the end of the branches.

Sentiments:  All the winter sentiments stamped in black ink are from Waffle Flower. The β€œPull” and arrow are tiny stamps from My Favorite Things.

Envelope:  The card fits into an A6 (4.5x 6.25-inches) size envelope With β€œLet It Snow” on the back flap.

Snowflake Easel Birthday Card

Karen Burniston’s October 2024 release of new dies and sentiment stamps are now available.

Today’s card is an A7 size top-fold easel card that uses the new Postage Pop-Up, Charm Rings, Snow Charms die sets and Winter Hugs stamp set.

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

Cardbase: Β Cut a white 7 1/2 x 5-inch rectangle; score and fold at 7-inches to form a tab. Cut a white 7 x 5-inch rectangle and glue to tab. On panel that does not have the tab glued to it, score at the center (3 1/2-inches) and fold to make an easel. Three decorative panels 3 4/3 x4 3/4-inches will be used to cover the outside of the card.

Postage Stamp Diamond Frames: Β Using the large postage stamp frame and smaller squares and rectangle dies, cut eight frames. Separate the frames so that you have eight small square frames and two large square frames. (Save the other frames and cut-out shapes for other projects.) Glue to frames together to form four small squares and one large square. Watch video to see how window apertures are cut into the easel and how charms are hung.

Decorations: The smaller snowflake charms are from the Winter Charms set while the larger snowflake charm and individual snowflake are from the Snow Charms set. (Save the small circles that pop-out of the snowflakes to decorate the postage frames at the corners.) Watch the tutorial to see how the individual snowflake was made into a charm using the larger snowflake. Use two of the medium size Charm Rings to hang each snowflake.

Sentiments: Β All the sentiments come from the Winter Hugs stamp set and were fussy cut out of the same cardstock as the cardbase. The back of the card uses “I made this cool card” stamp with the maker’s mark below and a pair of mittens from the Snow Charms set.

Envelope: Β The card fits into an A7 (5 x 7-inches) size envelope. The back flap was decorated with a large snowflake from the Snow Charms set.

Triple Poinsettia Slimline Card

It’s Sneak Peak Week for Karen Burniston’s October 2024 release of new dies and sentiment stamps. These dies will be available for purchase on October 28, 2024 on the KB Riley LLC website.

Today’s card uses the new Poinsettia dies set and the Season of Cheer and Special Delivery stamp sets with the previously released Twist Flower Pop-Up die set.

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

Cardbase:  Cut a 7 3/4 x 8 3/4-inch rectangle from light weight cardstock. Fold in half to form a 3 7/8 x 8 3/4-inch side-fold card. Cover the inside panels with gold patterned paper then use the largest of the Long Rectangles – Crosshatch dies to cut two green patterned paper mats for the inside. Cover the outside panels with holly patterned paper. Using the second smallest crosshatch circle in the Circles – Crosshatch die set to cut a window thru the card front by centering the circle die between 3 1/4-inches and 5 1/2-inches from the top of the card and 1/4-inch from the right side of the card.

Poinsettias: Cut six of the smaller flower die from red using the new Poinsettia die set. Cut three of the smaller flower from green. Cut 3 of the flower center from red and three more from yellow backed with double-sided adhesive. (You can glue these yellow dots in if you don’t have double sided adhesive.) Cut six of the small pine branches from green.  Watch YouTube video above for assembly instructions.

Flower Twist Pop Mechanisms:  Cut three mechanisms using the Twist Flower Pop-Up die set. (If using a double-side paper, cut three 1/2-inch by 1 1/2-inch strips of the same paper.) Assemble as shown in assembly video at the bottom of this linked page. Attach center mechanism to show flower through the front circle window. Space out the other two mechanisms on either side and check for catchpoints before permanently gluing into card.

Sentiments:  β€œMerry Christmas” is a previously released die set by Karen Burniston. The inside stamps come from the new stamp set Season of Cheer. The red dots are leftover from the flower centers. The “Made with Love” stamp on the card back is from the new Special Delivery stamp set.

Envelope:  The card fits into #10 business size envelope. I decorated the back flap by covering it with gold paper and leftover fir branches and red dots from the flower centers.

Poinsettia Pop-Up Christmas Card

It’s Sneak Peak Week for Karen Burniston’s October 2024 release of new dies and sentiment stamps. These dies will be available for purchase on October 28, 2024 on the KB Riley LLC website.

Today’s card is an A2 size Christmas card that uses the new die sets of Poinsettia and Merry Christmas Lorna Add-Ons along with Season of Cheer stamp set.

CARDBASE: Cut an 8×6-inch rectangle of a double-sided patterned paper and fold in half to form a top-fold 4×6-inch cardbase.

LORNA LABEL: Follow the assembly video for the Lorna Label Pop-Up but cut out a frame by sandwiching the largest decorator label inside the Lorna Label die. Glue the Merry Christmas Add-Ons frame to the Lorna Label frame and decorate with words from add-on set before gluing the Lorna label pop-up into the card.

POINSETTIA: From the Poinsettia die set, cut one of the large leaves die from green and another from red. Cut one red from smaller leaves die. Brush the edges of the leaves with ink slightly darker than the cardstock. Cut the small, dotted center piece once from red and once from yellow. Save the yellow dots to inlay into the red center. Glue the large red piece onto the large green piece and then top with smaller red piece. Make sure to alternate the leaves for full coverage. Adhere red and yellow flower center. Die cut five pine branches and two of the berry stems to add around the large flower.

SENTIMENTS: The Merry Christmas Lorna Add-On set has a holly leaves shadow die that is just the right size to stamp the word β€œand” onto and glue to the bottom tip of the Lorna Label frame. The β€œand” and β€œHappy New Year” are from the Season of Cheer stamp set. The fishtail banner is a die in the Lorna Label Pop-Up set. The holly leaves and berries are in the Merry Christmas Lorna Add-On set.

Reindeer Games

It’s Sneak Peak Week for Karen Burniston’s October 2024 release of new dies and sentiment stamps. These dies will be available for purchase on October 28, 2024 on the KB Riley LLC website.

This card was inspired by the age-old question pertaining to the Rudolph-The-Red-Nose-Reindeer song – What are reindeer games? My interpretation is Winter games Olympic style with Rudolph winning the sledding race!

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

Cardbase: The cardbase is an A7 size (5 x 7-inch) purchased card base with decorative papers glued to the four panels. I used the largest rectangle in the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch die set to cover the inside of the card and leftover pieces for the outside of the card.

Finish Line Flag Pop-Ups: Two Photo Fans Pop-Ups were created using white cardstock brushed with glitter gloss the arms and decorator pieces. the arm decorator pieces were cut in black and the two sided flags come from the Pirate Ship Add-Ons set. (You can also find a single flag in the Castle Pop-Up set.)

Sitting Reindeer: The sitting reindeer uses the body of the Snowman Pop-Up with the face, antlers, legs and tail from the Penguin and Reindeer Snowman Add-Ons set. The sled is from the Snow Charms set. (If I were to make this card again I would make two sleds and glue them into the card first, placing them so they overlap under the reindeer trimming off the excess front and back sled pieces before gluing the reindeer base over them and into the card.)

Standing Reindeer: Two reindeer were cut using the Christmas Animals die set. One reindeer is assembled on the reverse side so that the reindeer can face each other.

Sentiments: “Reindeer Games” was created using the Mini Alphabet die set while the inside “You’re so Cool” was stamped on a fancy label from the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch set with a stamp from the Winter Hugs stamp set. The “Made with Love” circle image on the back of the card is from the Special Delivery stamp set. The blank personal message label is also from the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch set. (I didn’t have a piece of matching cardstock wide enough for this label die, so I elected to center the die and cut with flat top and bottom of the label.)

Envelope:  The card fits into an A7 size envelope with the back flap decorated with leftover blue flags.

World Card Making Day Card

This card was made to celebrate World Card Making Day and Craft Roulette episode #235 whose parameters were: not a single-fold A2 size card, mood board colors, world element and star.

I cased a card I had previously made and posted back on September 30, 2024 changing the patterned papers, scarf/steering wheel colors and adding a star to the plane’s tail. This card uses Simon Says Stamp! Stamptember with Riley & Company’s Fly By stamp set. (The Simon Says Stamp! Fly BY is sold out, but you can use this Riley & Co. Airplane Riley stamp set instead.) It also uses pop-up dies by Karen Burniston.

Watch the video to see how this card was made.

INSIDE: Plane and banner are interactive because they are on Karen Burniston’s Katherine Label Pop-Ups. The plane moves left and the banner moves right as the card is opened. The window frames on the card front panel were created from dies in Karen Burniston’s Twist Panel Pop-Up.

SENTIMENTS are all from the Riley & Company’s Fly By stamp set. “Flying by to say…Happy Birthday” and “Life is a journey. Enjoy the flight.”

CARD BACK: Signature and Craft Roulette inspired for World Card Making Day stamp with aviator’s cap.

ENVELOPE: Card fits into an A7 5×7-inch envelope stamped with “Your plane awesome: and some clouds.
