Love you more than ice cream -February designer Challenge

Posted on February 5, 2023February 7, 2023 by mymessycraftroom5

Its that time again, it’s time for the February Karen Burniston designers challenge. This months challenge is all about Love. We were given the option of a Valentine, wedding or anniversary card. I decided to go with a Valentine. When making a Valentine for my hubby I try to stay a way from pink, I found this purple and blue striped paper from my stash so I went with it. Ice cream is our guilty pleasure so I thought it would be fun to use the Ice-cream sundae pop-up dieset.

All the fun is in the reveal, to see this card in action please check out my FACEBOOK page, feel free to join if you would like to share your own crafty creations. You can also see a video of this card on my INSTAGRAM page.

So as fun as I thought it was I never made another one, with a trimmer anyway. I’ve made a few using Karen Burnistons Frame Pull Pop up, but that also needs some alterations. This is my first time using Karen Burnistons Waterfall Card die set and this set definitely makes it way easier. I made this card in one evening.

I have a bright and sparkly card this week. I needed a special card for my sister and I want to find a way to make it a bit extra sooooo I decided to add a few windows and and add a shaker element to the back panel and it turned out better than I thought. The bright colours were chosen because the colours matched a package of sequins I had recently purchase. This is what I came up with……
