Birthday card ideas you’ll want to case! Free project sheet too

November 9, 2026

On last week’s video I shared two birthday card ideas I know you’ll want to copy/case.

Isn’t this a great idea?! To create the present, I cut a small square of DSP and wrapped ribbon around it with a few loops at the top.

I drew lines from the top of the present for the star die-cuts. The Shining Stars dies worked perfectly. These dies just sold out! They were the product of the month for October; I’m surprised they lasted as long as they did.

This card is a gatefold and the images are from the Candle Party stamp set seen here. It’s so cute! It does come with coordinating dies in the bundle seen here. My colors include Lemon Lime Twist with Azure Afternoon and Poppy Parade. The Designer paper inside is the Timeless Christmas.

I used a white ribbon on the gift but colored it with my Poppy Parade Blends marker. Perfect match!
This is a special and unique birthday card anyone would love to receive!

I did create a free project sheet for this card; click here to download or print it.

And below is the video tutorial for this card and one more fabulous idea using this stamp set and the Shining Stars dies.

Let’s Chat is cute & nostalgic! See the video & free project sheet

April 22, 2024

Today I'm sharing one of the Club cards we made during my April Card Clubs. I chose the 'Let's Chat' stamp set seen here.

I love this set! Between the fun old-fashioned telephone, the greetings and the curvy 'cord' images it's a blast to create with.

I chose to use the retiring Hot Air Balloon designer paper seen here for my color palette of Fresh Freesia & Balmy Blue. We did fussy cut the head set to add at the top with Stampin' Dimensionals.

For the inside of the card I used the Happy Little Things stamp set seen here. I really like the many greeting combinations you can make. t's one of our online exclusives.

Below is the video on how I made this card along with a few resist techniques featuring new Annual Catalog products. I hope you watch it AND subscribe to my YouTube channel too.

Have you seen the clever Happy Houseplants kit?!

April 19, 2024

One of our most unique kits lately is the Happy Houseplant kit. It includes 4 frames with everything you need to create adorable home decor!

It's in our Kit Collection seen here and is all inclusive. That means it includes everything you need to create the 4 pieces of framed art all for just $25. They're 7" square when finished.

I think they're perfect to place in a hall, bathroom or a guest room. Maybe near a real plant as a coordinating accent.

A few tips on putting these together. The clear acrylic cover sheet has adhesive on both sides for protection. Remove them before assembling.

See how 3D they are? I used a bone folder to curl the plants a bit. The kit comes with Dimensionals for adding an elevated look.

Because the pre-cut plant layers are meant to be popped up for a 3D look I added foam adhesive strips seen here to the edges of my frame after I added the clear acrylic sheet. *don't look too close; I added the adhesive strips to the frame edges before I added the clear sheet and had to remove them!

I love the plants & pots this kit creates. What a beautiful set of home decor art!

This kit would make a fabulous gift for someone who has a new home and needs art, someone who likes to craft but not collect, or someone who is redecorating.

While you're shopping be sure to check out the rest of the kits in our Kit Collection here.

Also don't forget about the Last Chance sale – grab some products on sale! See it all here.
