Karen Burniston's June 2016 Designer Challenge, Card #1

Good morning friends

Today's share is my first card for Karen Burniston's June Designer Challenge - Summer Lovin'.

My card front has layered circles, a Pull Card Edge panel, a stencilled Kraft panel, banners and a postage edge border. You get to decide on the size with the Pop-it Ups and this card is a full 7 x 5".  After adding a couple of 'banners' using the Ring Frame Edges, I did some pen work and hand lettering.


Along the bottom edge, I used the Rain Stage it Stencil to create the stripes. To get the soft and mottled look from the Swirly Flourished stencil, I pounced the ink pad onto the stencil and rubbed it through the stencil with a baby wipe.


Inside I used a photo printed card stock photo with embossed bits and the Adirondack Chair Pop-Up.


When I was placing my ECD order this Spring, Joset's banner dies were the first thing in my shopping cart. Here I used them with the Alpha Caps 1 to spell RELAX. It seemed perfect for an Adirondack chair on a dock on a white sandy beach.


I love this Adirondack Chair Pop-Up - look at the embossing on the arms of the chair!


The clouds were each cut twice - once from a scrap of the same blue photo printed card stock and once from white Soft Finish Card stock. Then they were off-set with foam tape.


Finally, here is a side view of the card so you can see the Pop-Up from a different angle.
