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


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.

  • Springtime Scenes diagonal fold – 2 ways!


    I’m excited to share this neat card with you today. We made it at my April Card Clubs.

    Isn’t it beautiful? It features the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here and the Delicate Dreams DSP seen here. This DSP is so pretty they cannot keep it in stock! Be sure to add your email to the product so you get notified when it comes back in stock.

    This card might look like it’s difficult but it’s as simple as trimming off one half of the card front at a diagonal and flipping it over. Yup; that’s it! Watch my video below to see how it’s done.

    My colors include Secret Sea, Hydrangea Hue (new in color), White and Crumb Cake. The largest circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. The small White circle is from Stylish Shapes dies.

    We tried this layout in both landscape & vertical position. Which do you prefer?

    I created a free project sheet for this card with measurements, directions, photos and supplies listed. Click here to download or print it.

    Below is the video tutorial with tips on assembly.
