Driving By meets Simply Marbelous for a retro style Birthday card


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?! 

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. 


Here's the video below:

  • Velvet Meadow gatefold card with video & free project sheet


    This is another card we made at my July card clubs. It features the Velvet Meadow specialty DSP seen here.

    It’s a simple gatefold card. I matched most of the DSP so it created a full panel on the front. This DSP has fussy or flocked areas on it. It does feel velvety!

    I also used the new Exciting Times punch bundle for the center. You can see it here.

    Here’s what the inside looks like. I added a strip of the DSP along with the white for stamping and signing. Then added a skinny divider of Bubble Bath for a little accent color.

    My colors include Berry Burst, Bubble Bath and Peaceful Pine.

    I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download or print it. Remember it’s a great idea to save these on your computer for easy access.

    The video tutorial for this card and one more neat fun fold is below. Thanks for popping in today!
