February 2025 Karen Burniston Designer Challenge

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Welcome to our February Karen Burniston Designer Challenge.

Check out Karen Burniston's blog on Wednesday (US Time) when you will be able to see what all the designers created for the challenge this month, plus Karen will have an amazing video tutorial to share with us all.


Our challenge theme this month is ... "Bouquets" - Make a card of any theme featuring a bouquet (Note - bouquet doesn't necessarily mean flowers!)

As you can see I went with flowers! I used Karen Burniston’s Flower Pot Pop-up along with the Flower Pot Add-ons & Popcorn die set to create my pot or vase of flowers & the flowers. All the flowers etc are die cut from coloured paper that has small polka dots on them. 

I used the label from the Rectangles & Labels Crosshatch die set to add the sentiment & also one for a personal message. The sentiment is from the Seasons Sentiment stamp set.

For the front I used the same papers as I used inside the card. I added the “Happy Birthday” to the centre. I then added a few flowers & butterflies which are from the Flower Pot Add-ons die set.

I love all of the beautiful colors. I still have a problem matching different colors, I've been stamping since the mid 90's.

As ALWAYS, your use of colors blows me away!! Such a bright, beautiful card! I've been a crafter for 15 years but I never seem to come up with such great use of color!
