80th Birthday Surprise Pop Up




Hello my crafty friends!

Today I have a card I created for you combining dies from Spellbinders/Susan's Garden and pop up dies from KB Riley & Company.  I created this card for the wonderful lady that owns the nursery where I buy my plants she just turned 80.

My card is a 6" X 6" card base with a belly band which is adorned with Spellbinders/Susan's Garden S4-1234 Carolina Allspice from The Painters Garden Collection, S5-507 Floribunda Rose from Garden Gate Collection and  Eucalyptus from Foliage & Ladybug S4-1079 Autumn Flora Collection.

S4-1151 Fluted Classic Squares by Spellbinders was used on the belly band for the flowers.  Flowers were cut from Spellbinders/Susan's Garden Specialty Paper colored with alcohol markers and shaped using Spellbinders Susan's Garden Ultimate Tool Kit.  They were all built and attached using Kids Choice Glue.  Susan's YouTube videos for creating these flowers are as follows - Floribunda Rose 
Carolina Allspice  Eucalyptus

On inside I created everything using the following Karen Burniston dies. 

1222 Bam Box Pop Up
1157 Tiny House  Pop Up
1085 Garden Charms
1097 Farm Edges
1212 Fireplace Extras 2
1030 Happy Birthday
1031 Numbers

Hope this has been inspirational and you will go make a card.
Thanks for stopping by and until next time- Happy Crafting!

Good Morning Everyone!  Sorry it has been so long since I have posted but I have been busy getting ready to go to Creative Keepsake Convention and then going to convention. I had a great time taking classes, shopping, eating and enjoying great friends. My post today is using one of Susan's Garden new dies and one of Karen Burniston's pop up dies.  It was hard to get a good clear picture because of the shine from the glitter. Card base is an A2 size card (4-1/4 X 5-1/2) 1.  Panel is made by using Karen Burniston's accordion rectangle die.  Attach a piece of sticker paper  4-1/2 X 5-3/4 to a pc of white cardstock the same size using clear double sided adhesive. Cut 1 frame from this.  Cut the rectangle and tabs from center of frame and the long tab on the left edge of the frame. Run this frame through Sizzix machine using Hearts Entwined embossing folder (or other embossing folder of your choice)  Peel the paper from the front of the frame ( protective paper covering adhesive

Family Birthday Cards

Welcome my crafty friends! Today I have a couple birthday cards I did for our grandson and my hubby.  Our grandson and hubby share their birthday - grandson was best birthday gift ever. Our grandson turned 18 and he loves to fish he has a boat and fishes when he is not working.  Hubby turned 79 and loves his John Deere tractor.   Cards are both 6" X 6" and I used a combination of dies and Cricut to make my cards. The pop up mechanism was same for both it was an old die set of Karen Burniston when she was with Elizabeth Craft Designs - Bathtub Pop Up.  Another time I would reshape the bathtub into a boat but I had already hand cut the boat then went looking for a die set that had a pop up mechanism to use kind of like putting the cart before the horse. KB Riley  1003  Word 2 Birthday, 1031 Numbers and 1049 Camping Charms  were used.  The fisherman, fish and the silhouette of boat and fisherman were cut on Cricut.  Hooked On Fishing was  cut from a top strip of design paper fro

  Hello my crafty friends! Another Breast Cancer Survivor card that I created in October.  Once again I used Spellbinders Susan's Garden Sunflower, Acacia and Berry Branch and for this card Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame die set. My card base is 5" X 7" made from 100# white cardstock.  Embossed layer is 4-3/4" X 6-3/4" white cardstock.  I used a swiss dot embossing folder (it is an old 8-1/2" X 11" embossing folder - I have used it so much it is taped together now).  This piece was attached to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive .  Using the Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame 2  largest dies I cut 1 from pink cardstock adhered to card front using Bearly Art Glue.   I printed sentiment on white cardstock then die cut using the next 2 dies from Lisette die set then attached to card front using dimensional tape. Susan's Garden Sunflower S4-1177 from Garden Favorites Release was cut from Susan's Specialty
