'You Are A Treasure' Sneak Peek Card

Today is the day the Design Team can start sharing sneak peeks of Karen Burniston's upcoming release! Above you can see the whole release, which will be shipping February 20th. Meanwhile - I hope you enjoy what the team is sharing. 

I love how well all of her dies work together, so I pulled in several others to work with the new release and actually started with the Cupcake Pop Up. You can disguise the cupcake part, as I did here with the Treasure Chest. On this one I had to trim off the top part of the cupcake icing as it did stick up above the Treasure Chest.  

Lots of shimmer and shine on this card, from the mirrored card stock. 😊

My top folding card is sized 4-1/2 x 6" and fits into an A6 envelope. The new Beach Borders are so fun - here, I cut them from a pink mirrored card stock. I used scraps of metallic mirrored cardstock for the coins and jewels in the treasure chest as well.

The treasure chest lid doesn't pop up, it's more of a 'lift flap' feature on the card. But since you see both sides, I snipped one of the crabs from the crab border and added it to the top of the chest.

The new Rectangles and Labels Crosshatch have label dies that coordinate with the Label Charm Pop Up, so I added one of them as a place for the sentiment.

I have been asked how many cards I make but I didn't have a clear number. Since many of my posts include more than a single card or project, I thought it would be fun to keep track this year.

Crabs & Treasure Chest Pop Up BLOG HOP Card!

Hello crafty friends ...

The Karen Burniston Design Team is having a Blog Hop to kick off previewing the new release AND there is a Giveaway! Each of the Design Team will have a chance for you to win a $25 Gift Certificate! Details on how to win are at the end of my post.

I have a link below the prize information, that will take you to a 'flip book' of the new release, which is always fun to see.

A friend gifted me with this fun nautical themed 6 x 6" patterned paper, so I used it for my card today.   As usual, I created the inside first, then used the leftover strips of patterned paper to then decorate the front. The 'Ahoy Matey' piece is a cut-apart from the paper pad, and the HELLO is from the Word Set 6 Summer.

Remember you can always see my interactive cards on my YouTube Channel HERE

Inside I used the NEW Treasure Chest and Treasure Charms with the older Sea Animals and Ocean Animals ... paired with the Parcel Pop Up. Whew - that was a mouthful.

When you lift the flap of the treasure chest, you see the gold and jewels inside, and a stamped greeting. I also used some crab arms to hold onto the matted labels (from the new Paper Frames Pop Up) which is where we can sign our names.

GIVEAWAY:

To celebrate the release Karen Burniston and each of the Karen Burniston - KB Riley LLC Design Team members will be giving away a $25 Gift Certificate to some lucky person who comments on our blog posts, so make sure you join the hop and comment on everyone's blog post.
