Today I have a sweet birthday card that I made for my Nana. Her 88th birthday was this week and I wanted to make her a beautiful birthday card to help her celebrate. She always loves receiving cards and whenever I make a bunch of cards I bring them with me when I visit her and let her pick some to keep and send out to friends and family for their special occasions. She really enjoys seeing what I make and always fawns over them when I bring them. I think she gets really excited when I come visit because she knows I’ll have cards and I usually bring food too.
Here’s a closer look at the card…
And here’s another angle…
Card Recipe:
(Don’t forget to see the complete product showcase at the bottom of this post)
Cut Your Paper:
Petal Pink Card Base: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
Purple Posy Strip: 1″ x 5 1/2″
Best Dressed Floral DSP: 2 1/4″ x 5 1/2″
Stamp:
1.Stamp the sentiment from the Beautiful Friendship stamp set onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock in Mint Macaron ink.
Die-Cut:
1. Cut out the sentiment piece using the second largest oval from the Stitched Shapes Dies.
2. Cut out the Purple Posy border using the border die from the Ornate Borders Dies. Be sure to line the die up as close to the edge as possible so that you have a strip of cardstock to run your Snail Adhesive on.
Assemble:
1. Run a strip of Snail Adhesive on the Purple Posy piece and adhere the Best Dressed DSP to it.
2. Apply Snail Adhesive to the back of these pieces and adhere to the card base as shown.
3. Pop the sentiment on to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
4. Apply a few Pearl Basic Jewels as shown and you’re done!
