Birthday Card #2

I created these birthday cards for ladies in our local church. I combined something old with something new. I used the same basic layout for each card set, just changed the Designer Series Paper.

Happy Birthday Stamp is from the NEW 2011-12 Hostess Sets. Which you can earn when you Host your own StampIn' Up! party

Card Stock: Whisper White, Rose Red, Pretty in Pink
Other: Retired Designer Series Paper, Retired Kiwi Kiss Ribbon, Pink Satin Ribbon, Eyelet Border Punch
Big Shot Dies: Island Floral, Fun Flowers, Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder

Same card layout as above, just changed up the Designer Series paper and Card Stock

Card Stock: Whisper White, Melon Mambo, Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight, Tempting Turquoise
Other: 1 1/4" Square Punch, Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch, Scallop border Punch, Retired Melon Mambo Polka Dot Ribbon, Bold Brights Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack
Ink: Melon Mambo

Birthday Card


I had so much fun creating this Birthday Card for a StampIn' Up! Spring Get Together in May, we were asked to create cards using stamp sets from the NEW Summer Mini Catalog.

Stamp Set: Summer Splash and Family Phrases
Card Stock: Pacific Point, Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Whisper White
Ink: Pacific Point, Real Red
Other: 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon Old Olive , 1/2" & 3/4" & 1" Circle Punches, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Extra Large Punch, Scallop Circle Extra Large Punch Big Shot Die Circle #2, Square Lattice embossing folder

Side Note: I first punched out all the circles, then glued them on to the Real Red Card Stock. Trimming off any circles that hung over the edge of the Real Red Card Stock. Next I just placed the RR CS in my Square Lattice Embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot. I just love the textured look it gave the card.
