Belated Birthday Card – A Little Birdie Told Me

Belated Birthday Card – A Little Birdie Told Me

It really is a late card.  Today is the birthday and I am mailing the card today.  I have a friend that says the whole month is her birthday celebration, so I suppose it is ok if a card is a bit late.  I used stamps from the 2018 Occasion catalog.  Ordering from it is until May 31 so I have a while to keep ordering product on my list.  Hope you like my card.  Contact me if you would like to join the fun of making and creating cards.

Here is the card recipe:

Card Base:   Cut a piece of Pool Party 8-1/2 x5-1/2 Scored at 4-1/4

Mat: Cut a piece of Peekaboo Peach cardstock 4 x 5 ¼ front mat and inside mat

DSP Mat: Whole Lot of Lovely  cut 3-3/4 x 5

The stamped art piece:   Scalloped Oval Framelits Whisper white cut 3 x 4

  • Adhere your Peekabook Peach mat to the Pool Party  card front
  • The art piece was stamped in Black Memento Ink using the stamp set Bird Banter from the Occasions catalog. Give a few minutes to make sure the ink has dried thoroughly.
  • Color the bird using your Blender pen and the Pool Party stamp pad, use Daffodil Delight Stampin Write Mark to color the bird’s beak.
  • The greeting on the stamped art piece is stamped in Bermuda Bay. I adhered it to the DSP mat using mini-dimensionals.
  • I matted the Sentiment panel on a piece of Peekaboo Peach
  • The Sentiment on the inside of the card is stamped using Bermuda Bay.
  • I adhered these with Tombow Liquid Glue
  • I cut a strip of the Whole Lot of Lovely DSP and fussy cut it to make it look like a vine at the bottom of the inside sentiment piece. I stamped the bird in Memento Black ink, let it dry and then colored with Pool Party and my Blender Pen.
  • I used Linen Thread to make the bow and ribbon around the card.
  • I added one little crystal heart as a bit of bling. I usually put a little heart someplace on each of my cards.

       

Your card is finished.

Another card with different papers

Valentine Panda Card

Valentine Panda Card

I just love using red and black together. Red and black makes me feel good and energized.  It has always been my favorite colors or maybe it is my favorite colors because I have always lived in Georgia and grew up playing on the UGA campus.  So I guess I am a Dawg fan!

Here is the card recipe:

Card Base:   Cut a piece of Real Red cardstock 8-1/2 x5-1/2 Scored at 4-1/4        

Mat: Cut a piece of Basic Black cardstock 4 x 5 ¼

The stamped art piece:  Whisper white  cut 3-3/4  x 5

  • Adhere your Basic Black mat to the Real Red card front
  • The art piece was stamped in Black Memento Ink using the stamp set Party Panda from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Give a few minutes to make sure it has dried thoroughly.
  • Die cut your 2 Real Red hearts to use for the balloons and 1 Basic Black heart for your sentiment using the hearts from Sure Do Love You stamp set in the Occasions Catalog. The small hearts used for the flowers was punched using a small heart punch.
  • The flower border at the bottom of the stamped art piece is a piece cut from one of the cards in the Sale-A-Bration Sweet Soiree & More Card Pack. I adhered it to the stamped art piece using Tombow Liquid Glue
  • The Sentiment is written in white ink on the Basic Black heart.
  • The 2 Real Red hearts and the Basic Black heart are adhered to the stamped art piece using dimensionals.
  • Using Real Red and Old Olive Stampin Write Marker and my Blender Pen I darkened some of the flowers.
  • Adhere your stamped art piece to the card front with dimensionals

Your card is finished.  You may want to add a little bling to some of the flowers at the bottom.  I chose not to do so.

 

Inside Sentiment 

I die cut a heart out of Basic Black and used Tombow Liquid Glue to glue on the corner of the envelope
