Twisted Panel Pop-Up Christmas Cards ... Three Versions

Here are the close up photos of my three Christmas cards I made this week using the Karen Burniston Twisted Panel Pop-Up Die Set #1009.   Each photo set has a cover shot and one of the inside.   The chipboard items and the stickers are from Echo Park.  Card stock and printed paper is from FSJ.   I also did a YouTube video showing these 3 cards.  These cards will fit in an A2 envelope, but would require extra postage because they are thicker.

Video Showing 3 Christmas Cards Using Twisted Panel Pop-Up Die Set

I am a BIG FAN of Karen Burniston's pop-up cards and dies.   Making them into Christmas cards was a MUST for me the last couple of days.   I made a video to showcase the 3 cards I just made.   Hope you enjoy it.

Spinner Square Pop-Up Die Set

Another Karen Burniston die set to share with you today.   This one is the 1042 - Spinner Square Pop-up Die Set.   Karen really does an amazing job on explaining how to put these die sets together to create the cards.   There are so many to choose from on her website. 

The photo below is of the die set that I purchased.

Card stock is from FSJ.   Butterflies, flowers, and sentiment dies are from Crafter's Companion.  It is called Create-a-Card Butterflies Accessories Pack.   I did make this a window card for the front. 

Starting to open the card.

Opening just a bit more.  See the small blue piece starting to peek out?

When the card is fully opened the small blue piece pops out. 

Karen's step by step video tutorial on how to assemble this die set is:

Twist Panel Pop-up Card

One of my favorite designer is Karen Burniston.   She has such a wide variety of dies and unique styles for the cards they create.   I have two of her dies.   Today I wanted to showcase the 1009 - Twist Panel Pop-Up Card Die Set.   This is a photo of the die set.   Each of her dies have step by step videos on her website.

This card is a top fold card.   Card stock, printed paper, ink, and stamps are from FSJ.   Card base with top fold shown below.

This shows the insert and the twist panel as the card is being opened.

This is the twist panel (inside of the card) fully opened but not yet decorated.

FSJ Stamp Set is Dandelion Wishes SS-0497 from FSJ.    This is the card front.

This is the inside of the card with layers and stamped images.

This card is an A2 (4.25 x 5 1/2") but is a bit thicker so may require additional postage.   If a "belly band" is put over it, it would help keep it flatter for mailing.

The twist panel moves so smoothly.   I can't wait to make more.   Here's the direct link to the video tutorial for this specific die:   https://youtu.be/BuNlkY3x4t0
