The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Pattern of Friendship stamp set, Wildflower Birthday Specialty Paper, Textured Notes Dies, Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and the retiring Tinsel Gems Four Pack.
I started with a piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock for the base of my card. I embossed Pretty in Pink cardstock using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. Then, I adhered the embossed cardstock to the front of my card.
Next, I used the Textured Notes Dies to cut a rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. Then, I stamped “Happy Birthday” in Blueberry Bushel ink onto the rectangle using the Pattern of Friendship stamp set. I selected the cake (it’s a die cut) in the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper and then adhered it to the left of the sentiment. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added three Blueberry Bushel Tinsel Gems below the sentiment and added two more to the rectangle. I also added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
