Slimline Pop Up Card for Karen Burniston's New Release Blog Hop

   

Hello crafty friends

Today we are having a Blog Hop to show you the new Release by Karen Burniston! All the details for the hop and prize information are at the end of my post.

I have a YouTube video for you that shows the card in action and goes over some of the details.

I used the new Pattern Plate Fronds on the front of my card. The die is the size of an A2 card (4.25 x 5.5"), so I cut one full piece and one partial to cover my 8.5" long card, trimming off the excess on the edges. The join was hidden by the patterned paper! With the popularity of Slimline cards, this technique has been done many times by many different card designers, so I thought it would be fun to try it as well.

The tropical leaves are from the new Landscape Scene, and I added a Crosshatch Oval and the Happy Birthday as well. Copper sequins finish it off - I do love a little bling on a birthday card.

Inside I used the new Flip Frame Pop Up, the Safari Animals and Go Wild. I had been trying to make a Gatefold with both the Flip Frame and Palm Tree Pop Up for my card but it was not working so I salvaged one of the palm trees and added it inside my card.

The animals were die cut from white card stock and inked with dye inks and i-crafter blending brushes!.

A a few more copper sequins were added inside, then I put a heart in each of the animals arms. Finally I added the Celebrate!

Below you can see the entire new release! Remember you can click on the photo to have it open up larger in a new window.  

Each DT member will have a $25 Gift Certificate to giveaway on their blog to a random poster. Winners to be announced one week after the hop (July 27th). I will also be counting any YouTube comments when I choose my winner.
