Hello Friends! Happy Saturday!

Today’s  card is a simple and colorful way to send a “big” birthday wish.  I’m showcasing the Biggest Wish stamp set.  The larges, bold sentiments in the set  are so much fun to use.  There are nine sentiments and a small image stamp.  The sentiments are mixed fonts that make it easy to create your own messages… “happy birthday”, birthday hello”, “hello friend” and on and on. This card can be used as a masculine birthday wish or a birthday wish for a child.

I kept the design simple, adding a few quick and easy details – an embossed layer, a little ink splatter and punched circles as embellishments.

Today’s Card Pieces and Parts

  • So Saffron, Bermuda Bay and Poppy Parade is today’s color palette.  Love these colors together.
  • The sentiment is stamped with Night of Navy ink. (It looks black, but I just re-inked my Night of Navy and it was pretty juicy so the image stamped darker than usual).
  • The card base is a Basic White A-2 tent fold that measures 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″.
  • The So Saffron card front layer is 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ and embossed with the Hive 3-D Embossing Folder.
  • The So Saffron card front is attached to the card base with Multipurpose Glue.
  • I fine that glue is a better adhesive when working with layers.  You have some time to slide your layers exactly where you want them.
  • The Basic White sentiment layer is die cut with one of the Rectangle Stitched Dies and attached to the card front with Dimensionals.
  • I cut two strips for the banners.  One is Bermuda Bay and the other is Poppy Parade.  They’re each 3/4″ wide.
  • The hand cut flagged banners are attached to the back of the sentiment layer.
  • My sentiment layer needed a little something more… I found an ink splatter stamp in the Color & Contour stamp set and “splattered” a little Bermuds Bay ink around the sentiment.
  • The ink splatter is stamped off once.
  • I used my Cupcake Builder Punch to punch a few small circles from Bermuda Bay, Poppy Parade and So saffron cardstock.
  • They work well as embellishments.

So, find that fun “big” stamp, emboss a card layer, add a little ink splatter and create a “big” birthday wish.

…the only limitation is your imagination!
