Hello and welcome to today’s cards, which are two more alternatives for the March 2019 Paper Pumpkin, Poppin’ Birthday! I can honestly say this has been such a fun kit to create these alternative ideas to share with you! If you missed my previous post for the first two alternatives, you can see them here. So, let’s get started with today’s cards, which you can make two of each!
Starting with the card on the right, take the pop-out cake sheet and cut the cake pieces out along the score lines:
You will adhere the die-cut candles to the back, cut two for the top, two for the middle, and three for the bottom:
For the base layer, cut the striped card base into two pieces, measuring 4” x 5 ¼” each:
The sentiment for the card front is stamped on the die-cut piece from the kit in Bermuda Bay ink, I lined the “happy” and the “birthday” up on a single block, and adhered one of the die-cut party hats:
To assemble the card front, I adhered the cake layers together, adhered this piece to the base layer with dimensionals, and then adhered the sentiment piece with dimensionals:
This is then adhered to a Bermuda Bay cardstock card base, cut at 4 ¼” x 11”, and scored at 5 ½”:
For the inside sentiment, cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock at 4” x 5 ¼”, stamp the sentiment in Bermuda Bay ink, the streamers in Daffodil Delight ink, and the party hat in Poppy Parade ink:
For the card on the left, you will cut down the striped card base into two base layers, measuring 4” x 5 ¼”, use two of the white die-cut labels, two of the die-cut party hats, two of die-cut bows, five of the polka dot die-cut numbers (I used the odd numbers), and two of the die-cut striped rectangle pieces:
Stamp the sentiment on the die-cut label in Poppy Parade ink and adhere the die-cut party hat and bow:
Adhere the striped die-cut piece to the base layer (this is a little longer across, so just snip the extra off), arrange the numbers where you want them, adhere them with mini dimensionals (except the one behind the sentiment, use snail), and then adhere the sentiment with dimensionals:
This completed piece is adhered to a Thick Whisper White cardstock card base, measuring 4 ¼” x 11”, and scored at 5 ½”:
For the inside, stamp the sentiment and party hat in Poppy Parade ink and the streamers in Daffodil Delight ink:
Here is the second card I made, but this time I used the even numbers from the confetti die-cut numbers:
Another quick and easy set of alternatives! These cards are a great way to use up the products from the kit and make your own special birthday card!! I have two more alternatives that I will be sharing with you next time!
