Pop It Ups Wednesday With - Disappearing Katie Label Pivot Card

I am blogging on the Elizabeth Craft Designs' blog today with a full tutorial on this card.  What's really amazing is that I've only used one die set to create this card.  Notice on the front of the card you see "It's somebunny's birthday" but you don't see it anymore when you open the card!  Ohhhh magic!
I also have another sample of this style card here.

Happy Stampin',

Karen Burniston Designer Challenge - Artsy

Welcome back to my second card for Karen Burniston's Designer Challenge.  For my artsy card, I used Katie Label Pivot along with Heart Pivot Card (key & keyhole).  I was inspired by Karen's embossing & brayerinking video and I wanted to try it out.
I made a frame around the sentiment by nesting two Katie Labels and die cutting.  For the other Katie Label, I brayer Lost Lagoon onto my light blue cardstock, embossed using Katie Labels, brayer again, then die cut.  For the keys, I embossed the key onto silver cardstock, then brayer Black Memento.  Add some Silver Border Lines and my artsy creation is complete.

Happy Crafting,
Raquel

Making Spirits Bright

I created this Katie Label Pivot Card for the Spectrum Noir Christmas/Winter challenge.

The base card was cut from Season of Style DSP and Old Olive card stock using Karen Burniston's Katie Label Pivot Card.  I used a companion die from Fancy Label Accordion to stamp my image from Making Spirits Bright stamp set and colored with Spectrum Noir markers.  To make the candy cane, I die cut the handle from the Umbrella die set from red/white striped paper.

I used Adorning Accents Edgelits & embossing folder to cover the middle seam of the card.

Happy Stamping,
Raquel

Hoppy is a poisonous dart frog

I love how versatile Hoppy the Frog can be!  Hoppy is one the new characters from Karen Burniston.  I can see he'll be "hopping" into a lot of my cards.
I cut Hoppy from blue textured card stock & used markers to make spots to resemble a poisonous dart frog.  I cut the dragonfly from Turquoise Gemstone Shimmer Sheetz and Basic Black cardstock.

I used Lots of Pops to animate the flagpoles, "Birthday" and Hoppy.  Did I mention how much I adore Hoppy?  He also comes with those flies and a lily pad - super cute.  The "Birthday" is a die cut from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I used a larger stitched Katie Label for the signature area.
If you have any questions, please ask in the comments - I do read them all.

Happy Stamping,

House Pivot- Vest

I've used Karen Burniston's new House Pivot Card to create this masculine card.  I don't know about you, but I do find masculine cards more difficult to create.
To cut the base card, fold your paper in half and keep it in half when cutting.  You will place the House Pivot die ONLY on one side of the paper, keeping the pivot marks of the die on the fold, you don't want the fence portion on your paper at all, then run this through your die cutting machine.  When you open your card up, you will have two houses!

I stamped the sentiment from Bring on the Cake onto a Katie Label & added a bow from Four Bows.  I used the Trendy Tiles embossing folder on the side panels.

SO classy!  To make the handkerchief, I used the brick house die (included in the set) & just cut it shorter to fit into the little pocket.  The bow tie & buttons are only glued to the right side so it will stick out when opened & not actually have a bend in it.  I can see so many posibilities with Karen's new House Pivot, so you know I will be posting a few more samples over the next few weeks.

Thanks for visiting & Happy Stamping,
Raquel

I Dig You

This card is part of Studio Els in Scrapbooking.com Magazine, April 2014 issue, along with more spring projects from other designers.

The stamp set is Delightful Dogs #2 from Inky Antics and it's filled with adorable dog images & several sentiments.  I used Real Red for the backing card with dog patterned paper, red washi tape & two dies from the Katie Label Pivot Card that I have stamped my sentiment onto.

Too cute!  That sweet little dog is staring up at his bone tree wishing a bone would fall off.  I saw this stamp set & wanted it just for this sentiment  "Sittin' & thinkin' about you!" - perfect for Karen Burniston's Garden Bench.
I cut the cloud patterned paper at the same time as I cut the base card so I know that it will fit perfectly on my card.  You don't have to worry about the dies cutting through 2 layers of card stock, they cut like a charm.  I die cut the All Seasons Tree using Early Espresso Core'dinations & the foliage from Kiwi Kiss.  I made a cover for the bench by cutting a tan piece of paper with the Garden Bench die then cutting it out in 4 spots (top & bottom of the arms) to create a bench cover that I can glue over the top of the white bench on my base card.  I used the grass die that's included in the Garden Bench set to die cut several pieces of grass.  I glued a line of grass all along the fold of the card & pop dotted one in front of the tree.  I sponged Peeled Paint Distress Ink onto my white base bottom portion.  I used the Katie Label Pivot Card dies for my sentiments.

I stamped the bones onto Whisper White using Baked Brown Sugar ink, then fussy cut them & used a Stampin' Write Marker to trace around the edges of the bones to hide some white areas due to imperfect cutting.  I stamped the dog on Whisper White using Black Tuxedo Memento ink & colored using Spectrum Noir markers.
