Deer in the Forest Birthday Card

I made this lovely guy card for my husband for his birthday but wanted to share it as well.  Another card that is easy to make as long as you have the Deer in the Forest Background die from Inlovearts.  Excluding the dies, the rest of the card is made with Stampin’ Up products.    

To create this card you just need a few things:

  • Crumb Cake card stock
  • Blue Plaid paper from the Timeless Plaid designer series paper pack
  • Boho Blue card stock
  • White card stock
  • With You in Mind stamp set
  • Inlovearts Deer in the Forest Background Die
  • Inlovearts Deer in the Forst Frame Die Set using the small deer die
  • Twine
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

For the base card cut a piece of Boho Blue card stock to 4 ¼” x 5 ¾”, the background die is 5 ½” so you need to make your card slightly larger than normal.  Take your blue plaid piece of designer series paper and cut that to 4 1/8” x 5 5/8” and a strip cut to 1” x 4” for the inside of your card.  Then cut your Crumb Cake card stock to 4 ½” x 5 ¾” just to give you some space for the die to cut out.  You will also need a piece of white card stock cut to 4” x 5 ½” for the inside of your card. 

Grab your piece of Crumb Cake card stock and the Deer in the Forest background die and cut out the deer in the forest.  Take your twine and using two holes in the upper left corner tie a bow.  Then adhere your brown deer background to blue plaid paper, and adhere to plaid paper to the front of your blue card front. 

Now take the white piece of card stock for the inside of your card and adhere the plaid 1” x 4” strip toward the bottom of it, leaving about ¼” of white showing at the bottom.  Now take a small piece of Crumb Cake card stock and your small deer die and cut out the deer.  Adhere that just above the plaid strip in the lower right corner of your inside piece.  Use the Happy Birthday stamp from the With You in Mind stamp set from Stampin’ Ups’ January to April 2025 Mini Catalog along with Crumb Cake ink to stamp your greeting. 

This is an easy card to make for the men in your life.
