Golden Honey Birthday Candles! So cute!


I saw a card like this online and HAD to make one! I believe the original designer is Libby Fens. Look at this colorful, clever card!

I wish I'd come up with the idea myself but I cased it.  Sometimes I feel a bit guilty casing from others. But when people case me I take it as a huge compliment. So I get over my guilt pretty quickly! 😉

The candles are made from the Golden Honey specialty designer paper that was available as part of our Sale-a-Bration offering.  It is now sold out but I know many of you own it already so I thought I'd share the card for you.  Or maybe you own some similar patterned paper you could use instead.

The candles are about 3/8" wide and 3" tall.  The paper is originally white with gold diagonal dashes.  I colored them in with Blends markers in light and dark of each color.  The colors are Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather.  

For the flames I punched out a daisy from the Medium Daisy punch in Gold Glimmer paper.  I cut off the petals and adhered them under the top of each candle.  Then I popped up each candle with mini dimensionals.  

Other Details

  • The Let's Celebrate You greeting is from Bonanza Buddies set on page 34 of the 2020 January-June mini catalog. 
  • The stitched rectangle is from the Stitched so Sweetly dies
  • Granny Apple Green

Here's a view of the Stitched So Sweetly bundle; it includes a fabulous stamp set and amazing dies.  If you buy it this month you'll earn a free Sale-a-Bration choice!  See it here.

  • Storybook Moments fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this easy fun fold card on last week's video. I made it for an online swap in December.  

    It features the Storybook Moments designer series paper from our new 2025 Spring catalog. It reminds many people of Beatrix Potter. You can see this unique paper here.   It has two sheets of printed die-cuts in each pack that make it easy to add coordinating layers. 

    I love this fun fold because it uses your card stock so effectively.  It starts with a card base at 11" X 4 1/4".  Simply trim off 3 1/4" square from one end and use it as the extra layer on the front flap.  The DSP in the center is 3" square and the side is 2" X 4". Super simple and a great use of your double sided designer paper.

  • Fruit Salad fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I shared this cute card on last week's Live video.  It features the colorful Fruit Salad 6 X 6" DSP from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with any $60 purchase. 

    I chose to highlight the red fruits in the Fruit Salad DSP along with a bit of Daffodil Delight or Granny Apple Green.  I absolutely love how our projects coordinate so perfectly!  This paper is free during Sale-a-Bration. 

    The greeting is from the Mixed Labels Online Exclusive stamp set. I love the sentiments and have used them a lot. And the coordinating dies are awesome!

    It's an easy fun fold card that has an extra fold on the right. Fold it back towards the center and add a coordinating strip of DSP to show off our double-sided papers!  I love this quick & easy fun fold and how well it makes good use of your designer paper.  I hope you save it and give it a try.
