Pop Up Anniversary Card

Welcome to Fun Fold Friday here on my blog!  Today I’m sharing a fun pop-up card made for our eldest daughter and hubby for their anniversary. I found this patterned paper in my stash - there was no cover sheet, so I don’t know who made it, but I love the colours so that is what inspired the start to my card.

Both the scribble heart and the love are older dies by Stampin’ Up. 

Inside is all the fun, with Karen Burniston’s Photo Fan Pop Up. I added lots of hearts using dies from her Heart Collage Pop Up and a leftover photo I had printed back when I did hubby’s birthday card in December. 

The Happy Anniversary is a sticker printed with my little Nimbot printer …  a gift Santa left for me under the tree and I just love it.  There was lots of room on the right side of the card for us to write a message and the card was hand delivered with love.

Supplies used:

5 x 6.5" card & envelope

patterned paper - old, from my stash. No cover sheet anymore!

Photo Fan Pop Up Birthday Card

I had SO much fun making this card and I couldn't wait to give it to my hubby for his birthday.  I used Karen Burniston's new Photo Fan Pop Up die set - actually all the dies I used on this card are hers. 🥰

We had been visiting Arizona, so I followed Karen Burniston's video instructions on having the collage photos printed at Walgreens. I don't know if we have the same options at photo places in Canada, but I'm going to have to check because ... how FUN!!  I kept the front nice and simple because all the fun is on the inside.

Ta Da!  Honestly, I looked at the dies and thought those little 1" photos would be almost invisible ... but nope - everyone is easily recognizable and each picture brought back such happy memories.

Needless to say, he loved his card. I haven't had much crafting time lately but I look forward to more playtime with this die set in the coming months.

'Having Surgery?' Pop Up Card

It's Fun Fold Friday here on my blog and today I'm sharing my first play with Karen Burniston's Photo Fan Pop Up. We had a friend who had surgery so this is the card I made for him. 

We were in Arizona at the time, & I had only brought a few craft supplies down with me so I was fairly limited in embellishments, sentiment stamps etc etc. However this fun (and years old) paper package seemed perfect and I was able to fussy cut feathers from one of the sheets to decorate the squares. I used markers to create the custom sentiments and he really liked his card.

Once again I wish I'd watched the assembly video before I got to work on it - but instead I followed the directions on the package. Karen B always has great tips in her videos - like adding a backing square to the two outer fan squares, and I wish I'd done that. 

I was not expecting to like this die as much as I do - it's so fun!
