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.

Another Boho Medley card

July 3, 2020
Here's another pretty card featuring the Boho Indigo Product Medley on page 9 of the annual catalog. See it here online.

Details:
1. I stamped the greeting from the medley onto a scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. Then I added a few die-cuts from the Medley in Misty Moonlight & Granny Apple Green.
2. I colored the rhinestones with a Light Navy blends marker. The designer paper strips are 3" wide by 4 1/2" long and punched with the Banner Triple punch.
3. The Misty Moonlight layer is 3 3/4" X 5" in size. I added a 3/4" X 4 1/4" Granny Apple Green strip of CS across the back.
The Boho Indigo Product Medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers. The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold.

If you purchase this Medley in July you'll earn a $5 coupon code to redeem in August. Yay for Bonus Days!!

There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon) but it is on back order until mid July. It includes the papers and the flowers. See that here.

I'll share another project from this product medley Monday!

Boho Indigo meets the Rectangular Postage punch!

July 2, 2020
The Boho Indigo product medley is beautiful! Check it out on page 9 of the annual catalog or click here.

The medley comes with a whole bunch of products all in one box including stamps, dies, beautiful designer paper in 6 X 6" size, textured card stock, die-cuts, ribbon and paper/bead flowers. The colors are Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy, Vanilla, White, Garden Green & gold.

There's even a refill option (without the stamps, dies & ribbon) but it is on back order until mid July. It includes the papers and the flowers. See that here.

I decided to use the Rectangular Postage punch for a quick, pretty card. See it here.

The colors are Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray & White. The Misty Moonlight pieces are textured with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. The greetings are from the Fancy Phrases stamp set seen here. I used the Tailored Tag punch for the front greeting. That delicate flower on the greeting is included in the Product Medley AND the refill for it.

Measurements:
- White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
- Seaside Spray 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
- Misty Moonlight 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
I'll share another project from this product medley tomorrow!
