Wishing you a Delightful Birthday!

Hello and welcome to today’s card, which is a fun and sweet birthday card using three different stamp sets! Sometimes card and craft making can be a little like baking, you add a little bit of this stamp set, a little bit of that stamp set, and then top if off with a fun stamp set! Now you have your own recipe for a super cute card! Lol I will also show you a little trick to create a custom size label with the Stitched Nested Labels!

Your base layer for this card is this design from the Mosaic Mood DSP, cut at 4” x 5 ¼”:

For the card front you will need:

1. Enough Mint Macaron Textile Ribbon to tie into a bow around the base layer DSP.

2. Three of the small butterflies from Butterfly Gala, stamp the solid background butterfly in Blushing Bride ink on Whisper White cardstock, stamp the outline and body in Terracotta ink, and then punch out with the Butterfly Duet Punch.

3. Stamp the sentiment in Terracotta Tile ink on Whisper White cardstock, cut out with the third largest Stitched Nested Label (see below for tip on custom cut down) and then cut out a layering piece in Blushing Bride cardstock with the second largest Stitched Nested Label.

4. To create a “custom” label, simply adjust the size by lining up the holes on the side, they align easily, and then use a piece of tape or sticky note to keep it in place. I cut out the Blushing Bride layer and then used the sentiment as a guide as to where is should be cut down to:

To assemble the card front, tie the ribbon into a bow, adhere the layered sentiment with dimensionals, adhere one of the butterflies to the sentiment and the other two with mini dimensionals to the DSP:

This completed piece is adhered to a Garden Green cardstock card base, cut at 5 ½” x 8 ½”, and scored at 4 ¼”. I decided to use three of the small Terracotta Tile Faceted Dots on the layered sentiment piece:

The inside sentiment is on Whisper White cardstock, cut at 4” x 5 ¼”, stamped in Garden Green ink, and adhere a ¾” x 4” piece of cardstock along the bottom, the same that you used on the front:

So, what do you think about my “recipe” to make this card?? While having a stamp set with coordinating DSP is fun and easy, change things up by using different stamp sets with the DSP!!

I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator located in Norfolk, Virginia and was first introduced to Stampin' Up! in 2004 when I attended my very first card class with my Mother-in-Law and I was immediately hooked! I first started out by making simple holiday cards and over the years as my stash has grown, so have my card and craft making skills. It has always warmed my heart when family and friends love my cards, but they actually keep them! In 2016 I decided to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and figured I could just do it for a hobby, but now I am going to branch out for all to world to see. So grab your favorite beverage, sit in your favorite chair, and join me as I share my cards and crafts with you! Enjoy!
