For a different twist I did a diagonal card with the Delicate Dreams designer series paper using the new 2026-2028 In Color Hydrangea Hue from Stampin’ Up for the card base and my flower.

To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Hydrangea Hue card stock (2026-2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
- Crumb Cake card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- White card stock
- Delicate Dreams designer series paper (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Delicate Whispers stamp set and dies (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar stamp set and dies (2026 Advent Calendar Stampin’ Up)
- 3” circle die (Stampin’ Up)
- Natural Matte Dots embellishments (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Hydrangea Hue ink (2026-2028 In Color Stampin’ Up)
- Secret Sea ink (2025-2027 In Color Stampin’ Up)
- Scoring board or scoring blade for paper trimmer
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
For you card base take a piece of Hydrangea Hue card stock and cut it on the diagonal in half from the top left to the lower right. Then score on the 11” side at 5 ½” and on the 8 ½” side at 4 ¼”. Fold the 4 ¼” side in and the 5 ½” down to form you card base. From Crumb Cake cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and cut in half on the diagonal and adhere to each side. Then with the floral piece from the Delicate Dreams designer series paper pack cut to 3 ¾” x 5” and cut on the diagonal and adhere to your Crumb Cake pieces.

With a white piece of card stock cut out a 3” circle with a die. To the lower right side use the “for someone extra special” greeting from the 12 Days of Crafting stamp set and stamp in Secret Sea ink. On a scrap piece of white card stock use the large flower stamp from the 12 Days of Crafting stamp set and stamp in Hydrangea Hue ink, use the die to cut it out. Then use Secret Sea ink to stamp the flower center. Use the leaf spray die and the Mossy Meadow paper from the Delicate Dreams designer series paper to cut out.

Adhere the leaf spray to the left and upper part of your circle and then the flower to the left side of your words. Add a few of the Natural Matte Dots embellishments to the white spaces of your circle. Put adhesive to the upper left side of the back of your circle and adhere to the upper center of your card front, adhering only to the upper diagonal.

For the inside of your card cut a piece of Crumb Cake card stock to 4” x 5 ¼” and a piece of white cards stock to 3 ¾” x 5”. Adhere the white piece to the Crumb Cake and then adhere to the inside back of your card base. Use Secret Sea ink to stamp the “Birthday wishes” greeting to the upper center of the white piece from the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar stamp set.

A really pretty card for anyone’s birthday.
