A Tri-fold Pop-Up Birthday Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #229 whose parameters included a faux envelope project, berries colors, string element and overlap.

I made this card using dies and stamps by Karen Burniston – Lorna Label Pop-Up, Just A Note Lorna Label Add-Ons, Happy Birthday Lorna Label Add-Ons and the Belated Birthday stamp set.

Watch the process video to learn how I made the card.

Cardbase: Cut an 11 x 5 1/2-inch rectangle and score and fold at 4 1/4-inches and at 8 1/2-inches. Cover with decorative papers cut at 4 x 5 1/4-inches (cut four of these) and then cut two of 2 1/4 x5 1/4-inches.

Envelope: The sentiment stamped on the back is by Technique Tuesday.

Day 1 of 12 Days of Christmas Ovens

| ullycatdesigns

It’s Day 1 of my 12 Days of Christmas Ovens.

I’m using a stamp and die set by Diamond Press to create this interactive card that lets you pull the tab to open the oven door and reveal a Christmas turkey. (Because this kit doesn’t include any holiday sentiments, I had to use ones by other sources.)

Watch video above for a tutorial on how to make the card.

Cardbase: I used a purchased top-fold A2 size (2.25 x5.5-inch) gray cardbase and punched a half circle opening in the top center for a thumb hole to help with the pull tab. To help with the weight of the front, I added a 4×5.25-inch piece of the same green cardstock I had used for the front matching ups the thumb hole notches.

Oven: I watched an assembly video before I started my card. Then I cut the pieces I needed from green colored cardstock and white 65 lb. white cardstock.

Sentiments: For my original card, the outside “Merry Christmas” sentiment, I cut the words from a commercial Christmas card. For the card in my process video, I used stamps from the Greetery saying “Warmest Winter Wishes.” Inside both cards is “Happy Holidays, a die-cut sentiment by Karen Burniston in black.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 envelope.

Let The Music Play – A Sympathy Card

| ullycatdesigns

It’s time for the August 2024 Karen Burniston Design Team Challenge with the theme of LET THE MUSIC PLAY.

While normally I would choose to make an uplifting card for the monthly challenge, I needed a sympathy card for an organist who had recently passed.

The cardbase is made from a 7 1/4 x 8 1/2-inch rectangle of patterned cardstock folded in half to make a top-fold 3 5/8 x 8 1/2-inch slimline card. The inside is covered with strips that are 2 5/8 x 8 1/2-inches.

For the pop-up bar inside, I used a 4 3/4 x 8 1/2 – inch piece of patterned paper that was scored and folded at 1 1/8, 2 1/4, 3 3/8. And 4 1/2 inches.

Gift Card Box with Three Mini Pop-Up Cards

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #224 whose parameters included mini cards, “a pretty day” colors, scent(s)/nose(s) and packaging.

I chose to make a gift card box with three mini pop-up cards to celebrate Christmas. Karen Burniston Dies were used to create the box and pop-up mechanisms.

Cardbases: Mini cards are 2 x 7-inch rectangles of double-sided papers folded in half and trimmed to fit inside the box.

Box:  Using Karen Burniston’s Candy Hearts Box die set, cut one of the box die. Assemble as shown in the video at the bottom of the linked page. Glue journaling cards to decorate the box.
