Karen Burniston Photo Collage Assembly Tips and Tricks

[@kim00mik]

Thanks! Very fun to watch a Master in her elements! Thank you for troubleshooting and repair tips...

[@AuntieTriza]

Wow this is amazing!! omg it hurts my brain to think of the wondrous mechanics that go on in your head to have come up with this design!! 😍

I just took advantage of the 'It's Cheaper Than Therapy' sale and added this die and the Parcel Pop Up to my collection. Your cards are so impressive and I love watching your videos. So I couldn't wait to start the Photo Collage and am making cards for my sisters who are twins even though their birthday isn't until Aug. Like your coffee, puppy owl card to your friend Kelly, I love to make personalized card for special friends and family. I just finished a welcome to your new home card with the Spinner Square Pop Up for a friend. Doesn't it make us so happy playing with all our craft supplies while thinking of friends and knowing they get a kick out of our creations! So thanks for your amazing talent and inspiration.

The first time I made this pop-up it was just a practice & it came out great. The next time I think I tried too hard because it was one issue after another. So happy you made this trouble shooting video - thanks. I wanted to make sure my base was extra durable so I cut it out of sturdy acrylic and it worked great. The only thing I had to do extra was make sure the folds were really creased well before affixing the mechanism to the card.

I never had problems with this card but never the less great tips!!!!

[@debmusick]

I love this die. Every card I've made have been so cherished! These tips are so helpful. I have had problems just like you talked about--I appreciate your tips! Thank you! Thank you!

[@denalanham107]

I never realized how easy it is to open a card flat or even past that until I made this card but I have a solution. Right above and below the pop up mechanism I glued in a strip of cardstock about 2 1/2 inches long folded in half. I glued them in to keep the card from going open too far - works perfect & since you can't open too far with those little strips there is no chance of the mountain fold popping into a valley.😁

[@classyart5322]

Where did you place it?

[@KarenHasheck]

Ha - love your humor and advice- should be an inspirational song- climb that mountain and never let it get flat!!

[@janecrisci2658]

Great tutorial!

[@bons589]

I love this die and have used to successfully make numerous cards. However, yesterday I was using it to make another card and it kept ripping. I tried about 5 different card stocks…every one of them ripped - aaaagh! I cannot figure out what is wrong. The only thing I can think is maybe the cardstock is affected by the lack of humidity in the house because the furnace is on…. Is that a crazy idea??? It literally ripped every time! Never happened before. Am going now to try a patch. Fingers crossed.😳

[@esmilily]

Great video! I made my first card today and your tips and tricks were just what I needed. It came out perfect!!!

[@lisettepeters6297]

What glue do you use?

[@ChihuahuamomX3]

Karen, can you tell me where you order your photos for this die set? Are you ordering special size photos or do you cut them to size?

[@KarenBurniston]

If you’re in the USA you can print them at Walgreens. Here’s the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXnaXqpte8ahmKM

[@ChihuahuamomX3]

@@KarenBurniston , thank you ❤️

[@celinamizuno3171]

Hi, what weight of paper do you use?

[@KarenBurniston]

I like 100 lb. heavyweight smooth cardstock for the spinner base and arms of the Photo Collage. After that any weight can be used for the decorative parts. For the card base itself, a sturdy base gives the best performance, so that can be achieved by starting with a heavy cardstock (100 lb.) OR by using a medium-weight cardstock (80 lb.) and decorating with patterned paper panels. The layers will achieve the same sturdiness. HTH.

[@janiscreatesjohnson6630]

Off to cut mine out 😀😍ty ty

[@sandyscrap]

What is a 100 pound card in metric please?

[@KarenBurniston]

According to Google it's 271 GSM. Hope this helps.
