Button Heart Gate Fold Aperture Birthday Card

This card was made for Craft Roulette #250 whose parameters included a funn fold card, nostalgic colors, blanket element and buttons.

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

Details and supplies used are below.

Cardbase: Cut a 5.5×12-inch piece of light pink cardstock. Score at 2-inches, 4-inches, 8-inches and 10-inches. Fold as shown in video. On the gate fold panels, place heart die with center points over the fold and die-cut. Repeat on other side lining up the die to make a mirror image. I used the third largest die in Karen Burniston’s Hearts – Crosshatch set.

Buttons: I cut 70 buttons from four shades of pink cardstock. Using thin cotton string, thread the buttons’ holes and hand-tied knots to all of the card front buttons. The buttons were cut using Karen Burniston’s Sewing Charms die set.

Sentiments: All sentiments stamped in black ink on two rectangular panels cut using Karen Burniston’s Rectangles Crosshatch die set. “Happy Birthday is by Rubbernecker Stamps and the other two sentiments are Riley and Company’s Funny Bones stamps.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25×5.5-inch) size envelope. A die-cut button was glued to back flap to hint at whats to come.

A Pop-Up Zoyfold Birthday Card

This card was made for Craft Roulette #249 whose parameters included a zoyfold card, elegant colors, front door and three circles. (This is my second zoyfold card. Click here to see my first.)

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

Details and supplies used are below.

Cardbase: The cardbase is really a blend of two cardbases together. The larger card is a 5×7-inch landscape/horizontal z-fold card with an almost square 4 1/2x 5 1/2-inch card for a joyfold card Hence the newly coined card fold – the zoyfold (The term was coined by Mary Gunn Funn and Irene β€œHattrick” Smith on the Craft Roulette Members Show #244.) Watch the process video for assembly instructions. The back of the card is covered with striped paper and a scalloped rectangle from the Karen Burniston’s Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch die set.

Gingerbread House: (Watch the assembly videos for the Tiny House Pop-Up and Gingerbread Tiny House Add-ons at the bottom of each of the linked pages.) I used Nuvo Jewel Drops, Nellie’s Choice Snow Effects and adhesive backed peppermint candies to decorate the gingerbread house before attaching the house to the card with hot glue.

Sentiments: All sentiments are by Karen Burniston. ”You’re Sweet!” and β€œHappy Birthday” die cuts. The envelope sentiment is from the Sweet Treats stamp set.

Envelope: The card fits into an A7 (5x 7-inch) size envelope.

A Pop-Up Tag Card with a Nautical Theme

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: Β 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.Β 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: Β  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: Β 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.

Accordion Birthday Card For A Crafty Friend

This card was made for Craft Roulette #247 whose parameters included a card for a crafty friend, pretty paper colors, bell(s) or belle(s) element, and something gold. I used Craft Roulette stamp sets and Karen Burniston dies.

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

Cardbase: Β Cut three of the large die from the Landscape Rectangle Accordion die set from heavy weight cardstock. Cut three of the same die from thin decorative papers. Trim out the center pivot panel and side tab to form the decorative frames. Glue frames onto the larger panels. (I used a pretty patterned paper of blue, lavender and green for the center frame and coordinating lavender paper for the other two frames.)

Fence: Β Watch the assembly video at the bottom of this linked page Fence Add-Ons for a how-to on adding the fence into the accordion frame. (I used coordinating striped paper to cover gray cardstock fence pieces before i glued the fence in place.) The bluebell flowers are from the Fence Add-Ons die set.

People: The people were stamped using Craft Roulette’s Funn Friend stamp sets #1 and #2. They are colored with blended watercolor pencils. Using some teal colored twine, I tied a multi-looped bow with a small gold bell onto the card frame.

Sentiments:  On the third panel is the poetic crafty birthday sentiment which was embellished with hand-drawn balloons and a hint of glitter gloss. The sentiment is from the Craft Roulette Funn Sentiments #1 stamp set. The “Happy Birthday” and HBD sign are stamps in the Funn Friend #1 stamp set. “Crafty Friend” was hand written.

Envelope:  The card fits into a purchased A7 (5x 7-inches) size cream envelope. The back flap of the envelope was stamped with “HBD” (Happy Birthday) in a plum colored ink.

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

Cardbase: Β I used a purchased kraft paper cardbase that measures 4.25×11-inches when open and folded is an A2 side-fold card measuring 4.25-inches wide and 5.5-inches tall. The four panels were covered with decorative papers from my stash (Sorry, I don’t know the manufacturer of either paper.)

Pop-Up Mug: Β I modified the Flower Pot Pop-Up by cutting off the folder over flaps on the flower pot and added a handle cut from the mug die from the Tea and Coffee Pop-Up set. (See the video for how the mug was assembled.) Marshmallows are from the Camping Charms while the candy cane comes from the Stocking Pop-Up.

Cookies: The round, jam-filled two-layer Linzer cookie is cut using a scalloped circle die and small star die. The jam is made with Nuvo Glitter Drops and Glossy Accents.  The star cookie was cut with an embossing die using an embossing sandwich on my die-cutting machine. The powdered sugar is white spray ink.

Sentiments: Β On the card front is a die-cut β€œMerry Christmas” made using just the word shadow and words from the Merry Christmas Lorna Add-Ons set. Inside the card two fancy labels were cut from white cardstock using the Rectangles and Labels – Crosshatch and one was stamped in black with β€œKeep Warm and drink Hot Cocoa” from the Winter Hugs stamp set.

Envelope:  The card fits into a purchased A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size kraft paper envelope. Another candycane was glued to the back flap of the envelope.

A Jungle Postage Stamp Thank You Card

This card was made for Craft Roulette #240 whose parameters included a card for a helper, cereal box colors, jungle element, and a paper sack.

I choose to make a thank you card with a paper sack for an itty-bitty gift, stenciling tropical flowers and a large moth that you might see in a jungle. (Please note that after I completed the process video, I decided to add some cancellation stamps to the front of the card. So they are not mentioned in the video, but they are Waffle Flower stamps.)

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

Cardbase:  Cut a 5.5 x 8.5-inch piece of white cardstock and fold in half to form a 4.25×5.5 top-fold A2 size card.

Sentiments:  The front sentiment β€œCheers to you” is from a BetterPress plate and die set while the inside foiled β€œThank You” is a Spellbinders Glimmer plate die cut with a Waffle Flower Postage Collage rectangle die. The β€œItty-bitty gift stamped on the paper sack is from the Craft Roulette Stamp set.

Envelope:  The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope with an extra moth stamp on the back flap.
