Driving By meets Simply Marbelous for a retro style Birthday card

February 24, 2022

We made retro style birthday cards at my February card clubs. Look at this:

It's perfect for a guy or even a young adult. The Simply Marbelous designer series paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog is absolutely amazing! It does look a little psychedelic doesn't it?!

SIMPLY MARBLEOUS 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER

I covered the entire card front with it; no border at all. I rarely do this but I wanted this unique & special paper to shine! It has 6 different color combinations in it; all monochromatic too! Everyone had a choice of their favorite color.

The birthday greeting is from the Slim Sayings stamp set seen here. We stamped it in Versamark ink and heat embossed with Black embossing powder.

*There's a video to see how this card was created. You can watch it here.

The car images were stamped with Black Memento ink on a Basic White Stitched rectangle die-cut and then colored in with our Stampin' Up! Blends markers.

I trimmed the balloon image off of the convertible so it could be added to any of the vehicles. See the Driving By stamp set here; it's free with any $50 order through February.

The cute stitched banner is cut from more Simply Marbelous DSP using the Triangle dies.

After the card was assembled we added a finishing tough to the windows – a bit of Shimmery Crystal Effects for some shine.

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.
