BIRTHDAY WISHES

Today’s card features the Delightful Wishes Bundle, Floral Delight Designer Series Paper and the Spotlight on Nature Dies.  I was looking for ideas for this set as I purchased everything in the collection (I couldn’t help myself I loved all of it) and I came across a cute gate card that StampwithLaurie had posted on Pinterest.  I liked the look so I just altered it to use the DSP I wanted and recreated my own.

Here is what I came up with…

The card base is Old Olive cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 2 1/8” and 6 3/8”.   I added a piece of the beautiful Floral Delight Designer Series Paper that measured 2 x 5 3/8” to the left-hand side and cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to the same size and embossed it with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder before attaching it to the right-hand side.  Next, I cut a circle from the Spotlight on Nature Dies out of a piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock that was 3 ½” square.  Then I cut out the next smaller circle from a piece of Basic White cardstock that measured 3” square. 

I stamped my white circle with the flowers from the stamp set.  These are two step stamps so I first stamped the highlights with Daffodil Delight Ink and then stamped the overall flower stamp in Lemon Lolly.  (I find it easier to line these stamps up by stamping the darker color first and then adding the lighter on top).  Once that was done, I adhered the two circles together and adhered that to the left side of the card front only (remember if you put glue on both sides the card can’t open up.  Now to finish the card, I stamped the word “wishing” from the stamp set onto a piece of Basic White cardstock that measured about 2 x 4 ¼” using Old Olive Ink and die cut that out using the coordinating die in the bundle.  I added that to the center of my circles using Mini Dimensionals.  Then I stamped the sentiment “YOU A HAPPY BIRTHDAY” onto a little scrap of Basic White cardstock in Daffodil Delight Ink and die cut that with the label die in the bundle.  I added that right below my “wishing”.  The final embellishment was to add one of the adorable Tiny Bee Trinkets. 

For the inside of the card and the front of the envelope I simply stamped one of the flowers and leaves from the stamp set one each.  The insert for the card is Basic White cardstock cut to 4 x 5 ¼”.

I hope you enjoy this card I certainly enjoyed making it and the colors were super cheerful.  As always you can find the supplies to create this card and more on my website at https://www.stampinup.com?demoid=2206796 or by clicking the shopping button at the top of this blog or the link to the supplies listed below.  Be sure to follow me at:
