Cake Time Birthday Cards

| ullycatdesigns

Having just received the new Waffle Flower Cake Time Texture die and stencil set, I decide to make a batch of birthday cards.

I used purchased A2 (4.25×5.5-inch) plaid cardbases with white envelopes to start.

CARD

Front

  • Taking an 8.5×11-inch sheet of cream cardstock and cut into four 4.25×5.5-inch panels (I used 100 lb cardstock.)
  • Die-cut two of the panels in the center of panel with the texture die
Die-Cut Texture
  • Emboss the remaining panels using die-cutting machine’s embossing sandwich to emboss the die into the cardstock (I like the texture this gives to the panel, but it was harder to line-up the stencils.)
Embossed Texture
  • Using the five layered stencils, color the image with ink (I used a blue/orange/yellow color palette.)
  • Trim off the panel edges to the embossed die edge
  • Adhere to the center of card fronts (I used double-sided tape.)
  • Add black sentiment strips to front

Inside

  • Die-cut four mechanism arms using Karen Burniston’s Katherine Label Pop-Up L-shaped die from cream colored cardstock (I used 65 lb weight cardstock.)
  • Watch the assembly video located at the bottom of the linked page for the Katherine Label Pop-Up
  • Die-cut from white cardstock four of Karen Burniston’s Happy Birthday Shadows
  • Die-cut from blue cardstock four of Karen Burniston’s Happy Birthday
  • Glue the words to shadow
  • Stamp the verse from the Craft Roulette’s Funn Sentiments #01 inside the cardbase just below the center of the panel
  • Glue in the pop-up mechanism
  • Attach the “Happy Birthday” to the box pop-up making sure there are no catchpoints and that the sentiment stays inside the card when closed
  • Add glitter gloss to “Happy Birthday” and the word Glitter in the stamped verse

ENVELOPE

  • Stencil the envelope flap with the pennant using similar colors to the card
  • Stamp “HBD” over the stenciling using the Craft Roulette’s Funn Sentiments #01

Haunted Woods Pop-Up Halloween Card

| ullycatdesigns

It’s the Karen Burniston design team challenge for October 2025 using the theme of PEEK-A-BOO!” – What is hiding in your card? I chose to make a Halloween card with a haunted woods using the Arch Pop-Up, Tree Pop-Up, Halloween Elements, Slim Pattern Plate – Spiders and Ovals- Crosshatch die sets and the new Halloween Phrases stamp set.

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

Cardbase: Start with a white, purchased A2 (4.25×5.5-inch) cardbase. Covered the four panels with decorative papers.

Arch Pop-Up: Watch the assembly video (located at the bottom of the linked die set page) for the Arch Pop-Up. For details on how I decorated the arch with nine trees cut from the Tree Pop-Up die set, watch the video above. (Four of the trees are glued onto the arch side pop-ups and the remaining five are cut up for their branches which are glued onto the arch and the back pop-out strip. Orange leaves were cut also from the Tree Pop-Up set.)

Decorations: Three ghosts were cut from pearlescent vellum using the Halloween Elements dies. The dangling spider is made up of two spiders cut using the Slim Pattern Plate – Spiders. (You can use the spider from the Halloween Scene set as well.) Sandwich a piece of white thread between the two spider die cuts and tie onto back pop-out strip behind the arch.

Sentiments: Pearlescent vellum was using again to cut the “Boo!” (Halloween Elements) and the larger oval for a personal message (Ovals-Crosshatch). Graphic 45 Midnight Tales papers and ephemera are used for their sentiments on the card front and back. The “Happy Haunting” sentiment is from the newly released Halloween Phrases stamp set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope with its back flap decorated with more of the Graphic 45 papers.

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.

Seafaring Tri-Fold Pop-Up Birthday Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for CRAFT ROULETTE #286 whose parameters included a dude’s card, sunflower field colors, bird(s) element, and soot. Today’s card uses Spellbinders’ dies and embossing folder and Karen Burniston dies and stamps.

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

Cardbase: Cut from blue cardstock one 1.5×5.5-inch strip and one 3.5×5.5-inch rectangle. Score and fold .5-inch from the edge on both pieces to form 1.5×5-inch strip and 3.5 x5-inch rectangle. From an 8×6 sheet of heavy blue cardstock spritz with water and use the Spellbinder’s 3D Nautical Knots embossing folder to emboss the piece. Let piece dry flat. Trim down to two pieces that are 3.5×5-inches. (I made the mistake of cutting my cardstock to finished size I wanted before I embossed, forgetting that the embossing would consume some of my cardstock. So it is better to emboss a piece bigger than what you need and then trim down.)

Ships Wheel: Cut two ships wheels with stitching holes – one from black and one from brown cardstock using the Spellbinder’s stitching Ahoy, Matey! die set. Cut one ships wheel without the stitching holes from brown. Glue the two with holes together, keeping the glue from filling the holes. Stitch the pattern using two strands of brown embroidery floss. Glue the last brown wheel to cover over the back threads. Cut one “Ahoy” sign from silver using the die in the same stitching die set. Go over the letters with a thin-tipped black marker. Glue to bottom center of wheel. Using a pencil trace the openings of the wheel onto the blue strip as shown in the video above. Cut the openings out using a kraft knife. Glue wheel to blue strip.

Walrus and Seagull: Follow the directions on packaging of the Spellbinders Shipmates die set to assemble the pair. (I glued black eyes onto the walrus and used a pink marker to color the cheeks on both animals. Also did some shading on pipe with brown ink. ) Attach each creature as shown in the video above.

Card Assembly: Glue the strip with the ships wheel to the lower right side of one of the 3.5×5-inch rope embossed rectangles. Glue the 3.5×5-inch rectangle with the walrus glued to it on the left side of the rope embossed rectangle. Glue the remaining rope embossed rectangle to the back of the card to cover the card flap tabs.

Pop-Up Mechanism: Cut one of the L-shaped mechanisms from blue cardstock using the Karen Burniston Katherine Label Pop-Up die set. (Watch the assembly video at the bottom of the linked page for the die set.) Attach inside the card as shown in the video above.

Sentiments: Using the Karen Burniston “Happy Birthday” and its Shadow dies, cut the inside sentiment and glue together. Adhere the seagull to the top of the words. Glue entire piece onto the pop-up mechanism, checking that it is hidden inside the card and does not become a catchpoint for the mechanism. Stamp “Ahoy Matey!”to the card front using Karen Burniston’s Pirate Sentiments stamp set.

Envelope: Stamp in blue ink “Ahoy Matey!”to the back flap using Karen Burniston’s Pirate Sentiments stamp set.
