The base of the card is Pretty Peacock cardstock (you can find all the measurements below the Supply List) with two panels of Brightly Gleaming Designer Series Paper. The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock using Pretty Peacock ink and the stamp set, Wrapped in Christmas. I used the Layering Ovals Dies to cut out the sentiment and the scalloped oval in Silver Foil. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to just the top of the sentiment so the card will easily open. A piece of Very Vanilla cardstock was added to the inside and a rhinestone was placed right below the sentiment to complete the card. Super easy to make!

I began with a piece of Old Olive cardstock and scored it on both ends (I scored it on end, flipped it over to the other side and scored again) which created the gatefold (you can find all the measurements below the Supply List).
I added panels of Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series paper to both sides of the card base and added a panel of Whisper White cardstock to the inside.
It isn’t necessary to add a belly band (mine was made with one of our New In Colors – Bumblebee) but it does help to keep the card closed. The width of the belly band can be any size and mine is 3/4″. I tried a 1″ width but preferred the smaller size for this card. I scored it in two places and wrapped it around the card, securing the two ends with a small amount of Multipurpose Glue. I added two Stampin’ Dimensionals to the the belly band and then placed the sentiment piece on top of it.
The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock with Old Olive ink using the stamp set Tasteful Touches. It was cut out using Stitched Shapes Dies and a die-cutting machine. The Bumblebee and Old Olive scalloped ovals were cut out using the Layering Ovals dies which coordinate beautifully with the Stitched Shapes Dies.

Today’s card is a fun fold that features the Painted Poppies stamp set and the Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder. If you’d like to give it a try, I have a video showing how to make it!
I used Poppy Parade and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends to color the poppies and the flower inside the card but first I stamped the images using Memento Ink. When using alcohol based pens such as Stampin’ Blends, the type of ink you use is important. Because Memento Ink is a water-based dye ink, it’s perfect for use with Stampin’ Blends.
All the supplies I used can be found below in the supply list.

Unfortunately the Happy Birthday Dies, used to create today’s card, have sold out! They were part of a while supplies last promotion and they are now gone. But the good news is that the Happy Birthday to You stamp set, one of our Sale-a-Bration gifts IS still available and the flower image can simply be cut out or stamped directly onto the Whisper White cardstock.
The stamp set I used for the sentiment on my card, Fable Friends, is currently on the Low Inventory List. It’s a great set for Easter so if you’ve been thinking of purchasing it, my recommendation is to grab it while it’s still in stock.

To get the beautiful texture on my Purple Posy cardstock, I used the Country Floral 3D Embossing Folder and my die-cutting machine. I recommend using Multipurpose Glue to adhere the embossed pieces to the Thick Whisper White card base.
After stamping the flower images using Memento Ink, I colored them with Purple Posy & Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. It was so easy cutting the flowers out with the Birthday Dies! I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered them to a circle of Whisper White cardstock that was cut out using the Layering Circles Dies. The sentiment is from the stamp set, Fable Friends, and was inked up with Memento ink. A scalloped circle was cut out of Granny Apple Green cardstock, again using the Layering Circles Dies, and the Whisper White circle was adhered to this. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back (only on the right hand side) before adhering it to the front of the card.
