This is the third card which I made in this set...  I used the  Flip-its Scallop Oval Card die set , along with the cat, this time, from Sizzix's 'Animal Portraits' Thinlits die set. I used loads of foam pads for dimension, hand cut the bunting flags, and used Reverse Confetti's 'Hello' die. The background papers were from a Stampin' up pad, and  the stripey cat paper was from a My Favorite Things 6x6 pad. And here's the full set! Products Used:

This card has such a fun mechanism, created by the Twist Panel Pop-up die set . Even my kids were impressed with how all of this emerges from a a folded card! It's also a lot simpler to make than it might look. Loads of dies come in this set, including layers for decorating the pop-out parts, hearts, tags and bunting. I used 12x12 papers from My Mind's Eye Jubilee Tangerine range, plus brads from the same range. I used Tim Holtz 'Simple Sayings' stamps, and his Movers and Shakers Vintage Globe die, which I used with the Movers and Shapers Base Tray. Here's the card partially closed, so you can see how the mechanism folds everything up when the card closes. I decorated the top and bottom of the card with turquoise cardstock cut with a circle punch, to create scalloped edges. For the main sentiment, I used a Concord and 9th 'Globe Greetings' stamp, and Karen Burniston's  Word Set 1: Greetings die set. Product links:    

I made this card for one of my best friends' daughter's sixth birthday this week, using Karen Burniston's Cupcake Pop-up Die set .  I used a Paper Smooches stamp, and Neat and Tangled's 'Journaling Alphas' dies for the name. All the papers are from Basic Grey's 'Fresh Cut' 6x6 pad. For the card front, I used the little cupcake dies from the same Cupcake Pop-up Die Set, and a label to write a message in, from the Katherine Label Pop-up Die Set. I used Stampin' Up ribbon, ink and scalloped border punch. Other products used:    

It's Karen Burniston's Design Team Challenge day today, with the theme of 'G-G-G-GHOST!' - yep, Halloween cards! I don't make many Halloween cards, but I really enjoyed doing this one, using dies from Karen's super-cute Halloween Elements Die Set , with the Charm Accordion Die Set  for the background card. I used papers from Echo Park's 'The Apothecary Emporium' 6x6 pad, and on the first panel used the hedgehog from the Winter Animals  die set. I drew a little pumpkin for the hedgehog to hold, and decorated the bottom of all the panels with fence die cuts from House & Fence Pop-Up set, and grass from the Nature Edges Die Set . I used a raven from the Halloween Elements set to make the charm in the first charm frame, and the ghost is from the same set. For the third and fourth panels I used more dies from the Halloween Elements set - they're the perfect size for the Charm Accordion floating panels! I also used an old stamp for the sentiment,
