I made this pretty card for a friend of mine who was turning 40. It uses the Wildflower Birthday designer series paper and cut outs and while there are a lot of layers it is just some cutting and assembly so it is really easy to make.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Blueberry Bushel Card Stock
- Pretty in Pink card stock
- White card stock
- Wildflower Birthday designer series paper and cut outs
- Blueberry Bushel ink
- Birthday stamp (random die I have had for a long time and not from a specific set)
- Layered Number Dies (old school Sizzix dies)
- Tag Die
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
- Pop dots
For your card base take a piece of Blueberry Bushel paper and cut to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. Cut another piece to 2 ¾” x 4”. With your Pretty in Pink card stock cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”, one to 4” x 5 ¼” for the inside and then one to 2 5/8” x 3 7/8”. Now grab your Wildflower Birthday paper pack and find the floral piece with the light blue background and also the angled stripe piece. Cut the light blue floral piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and the stripes piece to 2 ½” x 3 ¾”.
Take the large piece of Pretty in Pink and adhere the light blue floral piece to it and adhere that to the front of your card. Then build the second layer by adhering the striped piece to the Pretty in Pink and that to the Blueberry Bushel and then adhere that to the center of the front of your card. Take some spare pieces of Blueberry Bushel and Pretty in Pink card stock and cut your “40”. From the Wildflower Birthday pack find the cut outs page and take the large pink tiered cake and one of the medium pink flowers. Put pop dots on the back of the cake and adhere to the center of the striped paper. Put pop dots on the back of your layered “40” and adhere those in the lower left corner and then pop dot the flower and adhere to the lower right side.
For the inside of the card adhere your white card stock piece to the Pretty in Pink piece and adhere to the inside of your card. Find the two large floral corner cut outs from the Wildflower Birthday pack and adhere in the upper left and lower right corners. With a scrap piece of Pretty in Pink card stock and your Blueberry Bushel ink, stamp your “Birthday Wishes” and cut out with a label die and layer some Blueberry Bushel behind that. Adhere with your flowers in the upper left corner.
This is just an adorable birthday card and really easy to make, just takes a little time to cut the layers but otherwise it is just building it up with the cut outs that are all ready to go.
