August 2025 Karen Burniston Designer Challenge

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Welcome to our August 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 ... "BOTTOM FOLD CARDS" - Let's flip things up and make some pop-ups in bottom fold cards.


For my card for this challenge I decided to create something that is a blast from the past… a file folder card. I made my card so the finished card measures 5 x 7 inches. I trimmed 1/2 inch from the top of the front of the card before adding my tabs. For the tabs I used my Envelope Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers, punching at the edge and then at 2 1/2 inches on both the front & the back.


For the inside of my card I added the Little Labels Pop-up die to create the pop up portion of the card. I madded the presents from the Big Birthday Charm die set to mimic the patterned paper on the front. The sentiment on the centre label is from the Seasons of Cheer Clear Stamp set.




On the lower panel on the inside I added the poinsettia using the Poinsettia die set. I added a large label from te Lorna Labels die set to add a personal message. 



To finish off my card I added the Merry Christmas sentiment using the Merry Christmas Lorna Add-ons die set.
