Hi! I hope you were able to schedule some tme in your craft space this weekend.
I paired the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper (FREE with a $50 product purchase until February 29th), with the Hooray For Surprises Bundle. These are two of my favorites. The patterns in the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper will take you and your paper crafting a long way. The same goes for the Hooray for Surprises Bundle. When I first saw this Bundle, I knew I would use it often. It’s a fun bundle with a lot of versatility.
Did you notice the scalloped edge at the bottom of my card? The Basic White cardstock layer is die cut with one of the dies from the Brifght Skies Dies. This is another Bundle I had to have. I’ve already done a lot with it, and I’m sure it’ll be on my craft table again.
So, let’s make a card!
Parts & Pieces
When I choose a color palette for a project, I generally use patterned paper as a guide. There were so many pretty color combinations in this patterned paper, I had to make a decision. I wanted a “bright and happy” card, so I decided to go with Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, and Night of Navy.
- The Crumb Cake cardstock card base is 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″ on the long side.
- The Basic White layer is 1 1/2″ x 5 1/2″. I die cut the edge with a scalloped die from the Bright Skies Dies.
- This layer is tucked under the striped patterned paper layer with the scalloped edge even with the bottom of the card front.
- The striped patterned paper layer is 3 3/4″ x 5 1/2″.
- The Calypso Coral scalloped layer is die cut with one of the Scalloped Contours Dies. It measures about 2 1/2″ x 3 3/4″.
- The Basic White sentiment layer is 2″ x 3 3/8″.
- The die cut flower elements are from the Hooray For Surprises Dies, as is the sentiment.
- I added a patterned paper strip to the writing layer, stamped the sentiment with Night of Navy ink, and stamped the birthday candle with Calupso Coral and Daffodil Delight ink.
So, make a britht and happy birthday card. Find a fun piece of patterned paper, add it to a Neutral card base, decorate the front with a few scallops, and bright elements, and light up the inside with a glowing candle.
… the only limitation is your imagination!
