Category: Birthday

This month I am going to blow up your inbox with so many birthday wishes your are going to think it is YOUR special day! Next to Christmas cards, birthday cards are my most made and sent cards. My guess is that it is yours too so get ready for tons of inspiration. Find card 1 HERE, card 2 HERE, card 3 HERE, card 4 HERE, card 5 HERE. (This is starting to remind me of roll call in school).

In the previous post from this series I showed you the inspiration card from Leigh Amburgey using the Approaching Perfection stamp set from Sale-A-Bration. I wanted to design a “simple stamping” card using this set that could be made by anyone at any time with minimal supplies. Let me say that for those of us who are completely addicted “simple stamping” cards are HARD because we always want to add just one more X. I would say we need a 12 step program to help but then I am sure I would add a 13th step :).

Since this card is only really 1 layer I used the Basic White Thick as my base. I chose Pacific Point, Smokey Slate and Real Red ink colors as I really wanted a more masculine feel to the card. Only 1 D size clear block is needed and a pair of paper snips. Dimensionals were used to pop up the sentiment and some Wink of Stella gives it some shine but that is my inner junkie coming out again. The inside is stamped Happy Birthday! in Smokey Slate.

My type A personality made me keep the candles in line at the top and bottom to the best of my ability but I think next time I will make them a bit more CrAzY. If you want to step up the card without going to too much effort put a layer of Basic Black under the sentiment like Leigh did in the previous post.
