Sleigh Pop Up

I found some embellishments and pattern papers in my stash and put together a quick Christmas card using Karen Burniston's Sleigh Pop Up.  I used Nature Edges to make a snowy edge, added a ribbon and embelishments and the front is complete.

I added a tree embellishment in the sleigh, stamped a sentiment from Stampin' Up!'s Season Like Christmas and the inside is done too!  The mechanism for the sleigh is sandwiched between the two sleighs (makes it easy to add panels to the top and bottom of the card).

Happy Stampin',

Karen Burniston Paper Pros - Holiday Cards

It's time for the Holiday themed Paper Pros challenge.  Caz Council set the challenge this month to make a holiday themed card.  With some help from Karen Burniston's Snowman, I chose Christmas themed card.

I had just enough room on my snowman's body to stamp a sentiment from Stampin Up!'s  Season Like Christmas stamp set. 

Oh what's that on the inside?  Well keep opening the card and you will see lots of snowmen!

I used the Christmas Tree Pop Up as a base for all those snowmen (8 to be exact).  I did snip a little bit of the bottom of the tree off, otherwise they fit on there very nicely.  I followed the guidelines for a tree with a star because I wasn't sure how much room I needed for the hats.  To ensure that the hats were within the confines of the card, I adhered them while the card was slightly closed.  You can see the hats aren't taller than the tree itself; however, they are wider.

Season Like Christmas

I make this simple Christmas card using the new stamp set from Stampin' Up! called Season Like Christmas.

 I stamped the largest tree in Garden Green and the smaller tree in Mossy Meadow.  The trunk of the tree is a separate stamp and it's so easy to line up.  I embossed the little circle/snow stamp in Encore Gold and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.  The die cut sentiment is from Karen Burniston called Word Set 3 - Holiday.  To top off the tree, I used a Metallic Enamel Shape.

I used a die cut from Karen Burniston's Twist Panel Pop Up to stamp the sentiment on.  For a regal touch, I added a small strip of gold card stock.

Santa Paws

I think the new Santa Paws stamp set from Stampin' Up! is so adorable!  I also wanted to try out Karen Burniston's new Christmas Tree Pop Up.....so here's my card for the animal lover.

I colored the images using alcohol based markers.  I traced around the image with a gel pen by leaving the card stock in the die and traced around the edge.

OMG look at that adorable tree stamped with all the animals!  The sentiment also comes in the Santa Paws set.

Assembling the tree is very easy - much easier than I anticipated I'll admit.  Instead of a star, I thought it fitting to have a paw topper.

Karen Burniston Designer Challenge - All I want for Christmas

The theme for the Karen Burniston Designer Challenge is "All I want for Christmas" in the world of Pop it Ups.  So if I didn't already have all of the Pop it Ups dies, what die would I want or what die is my favorite?  Lorna Label is definitely one of my favorite dies as it's so versatile.
I kept the front simple with a stamped greeting and I traced around the die cut with markers.  I used liquid glue under the ribbon and to my surprise it shows the glue marks.......so enter the button and I think I might need to add another little something to cover the other little splotches.😏

 Here's one of my favorite characters, Rocky the Crab, sitting on the Adirondack Chair for his Florida Christmas!  Where else can Rocky go on Christmas but the beach?  He's all set with his santa hat, beard and mustache courtesy of Props 5.

 From the side you can see how Rocky fits perfectly into the chair; I added a little bit of glue to his top legs only and adhered it to the legs of the chair.

Merry Mice

I stamped this adorable mouse image from Stampin' Up!'s new Merry Mice stamp set onto Whisper White.  I colored the image using several colors of Classic Ink and an Aquapainter.  I also used the new Candy Cane Lane Designer Series Paper - it almost mimics snow!

I kept the inside very simple by stamping the greeting from Suite Seasons.  This is a quick and easy card to duplicate for all your holiday cards.

Crazy 4 Challenges - O' Christmas Tree

The Crazy 4 Challenges team gets their inspiration from the lyrics of the song O' Christmas Tree this week.  The card can include a Christmas tree, pine branches of a Christmas tree or even a tree in Summer or Winter setting.
I decided to use Karen Burniston's Christmas Tree Pop Stand for my card and lots of pattern paper that I found in my stash.  I used Silver Metallic Shimmer Sheetz to die cut the garland/lights.

I added more of the Silver Metallic Shimmer Sheetz garland/lights to the inside trees too.  I cut them into smaller pieces to fit the tree to allow the tree to still move around when the card is opened.  For the tree skirt, I used Paris Edges.
