What a great masculine card with the double vision card design. It is made with the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper and the Beautiful Motifs stamps and dies from Stampin’ Up. My friend and upline did this on a Facebook Live going vertical instead of this horizontal at her My Stampin’ Style page.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Mossy Meadow card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Beautiful Gallery designer series paper (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Beautiful Motifs stamp set and dies (retired Stampin’ Up)
- “Happy Birthday to You” stamp (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
- Pop dots
I have designed this to the pieces are all the same size, most of them are two different sizes depending on if up or down piece. For your card base cut a piece of Mossy Meadow to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. From the Beautiful Gallery find three pieces of the cottage paper, or one piece and you can use Basic Beige for the other two pieces. Cut two pieces of the back of the cottage paper to 4” x 5 ¼” and one for a label to ½” x 2”. Cut the cottage piece out to 3 ¾” x 5”, getting the part you want for your card front. Then cut that into five 1” strips, or you can do ten ½” strips if you prefer to make them smaller.
Take one of the tan pieces and adhere to the front of your card base. Use pop dots to adhere your first strip to the front of that leaving about 1/8” to the left, adhere the next one directly to the paper and keep going with every other so you have three up on pop dots (if you choose to use the ½” strips your starter will end up popped up and the last one down, if you do the 5 then both ends will be popped up). With some Mossy Meadow ink and the “celebrate” greeting stamp on your label strip you cut out. Adhere that to the lower left corner adhering to two of the raised pieces, so watch where you put your adhesive as it won’t need it in the middle.
For the inside take your other tan piece and use the leaf die from your Beautiful Motif dies to cut in the lower left corner, which cuts a leaf pattern, but doesn’t cut the whole thing. Adhere to the inside back of your card base. Use the Mossy Meadow ink to stamp the “Happy birthday to you!” greeting (an old Stampin’ Up stamp but I don’t know the set name).
What a great masculine birthday card in the double vision design.
