The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Inspiring Thoughts Stamp Set and the Inspiring Canopy Dies along with the Timbers 3-D Embossing Folder.

Happy Birthday is the occasion I am choosing for this Watercooler Wednesday Challenge – it is Marsha’s Challenge: All About Occasions.

The Sisterhood of Crafters theme for this challenge is LEAF it to chance.  I believe my leaf will qualify for that.

Start with a card base of Basic White card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Timber 3-D Embossing Folder.  This panel is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Cut a piece of Basic White card stock and crop and emboss the small piece at the bottom behind the trees.  Adhere this small embossed piece at the card front bottom over the other embossed panel.

From a panel of the Cork paper crop, the trees from the Inspiring Canopy Dies.  Pop the trees over the embossed card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Crop a few leaves from scraps of Calypso Coral card stock and So Saffron card stock using a die Grapevine Dies.  Pop these leaves around the tree trunk using Mini Glue Dots.  The little bird in the tree is from a left over stash item.  

A greeting from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock and then fussy cut around the greeting and pop on the card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set and the Happy Birthday is from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set.  Both are stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink.

 

 

A medium Basic White envelope gets the envelope flap embossed using the Timber 3-D Embossing Folder.  

If you would like to create this card all the products used and the card cuts are at the end of this post.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you took the time to linger and look at my other blog post and cards and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.
