Create an Iconic & Simple Birthday Card

Create this Birthday Card with the Iconic Celebrations Designer Series Paper by Stampin' Up! Card by Mary Fish, Stampin' Pretty

I can’t stop reaching for the Stampin’ Up! Iconic Celebrations Designer Series Paper, a new On-Line Exclusive, and today’s simple birthday card shows you why. It was a snap to use three of the darling and easy to mix patterns. I also love, love the Everyday Greetings stamp set, another new On-Line Exclusive which I used for “Birthday.”

WHAT I LOVE! Perfect little shapes for sentiments! That’s what the Greetings of the Season dies (new On-Line Exclusive) deliver including the oval (zoom in to see the dotted border) and Moody Mauve flagged end (cut down).


Stampin Pretty Color Combinations - Moody Mauve, Misty Moonlight, Mossy Meadow

NEED COLOR INSPIRATION?  The color combination for today’s card uses one of the 5 Color Combinations inspired by the NEW Iconic Celebrations Designer Series Paper that I shared yesterday! You can see my Color Combination library here.

Use a Mini MISTI stamp tool to stamp the “birthday” sentiment (Everyday Greetings stamp set) in Misty Moonlight Classic Ink onto the Basic White layer. Watch my 1 Minute to WOW video: The Magic of the Mini MISTI for a quick demonstration here.

Crop the stamped sentiment with the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine (Standard or Mini) and the 2 3/8 x 1 1/4 Greetings of the Season oval tag die.

Tie a bow of white Baker’s Twine Essentials through the hole of the oval tag die.

Adhere the banner and the sentiment to the card as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

POP OF PERSONALITY! Embellish as shown with 3 Moody Mauve 2023-2025 In Color Opaque Sparkle Dots.

PERFECT POLISH! Adhere the 5 3/4 x 2 1/2 Designer Series Paper to the Basic White Medium envelope flap with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. IMPORTANT: Add glue to the flap first, not the Designer Series Paper. Center and line up the Around the Bend curved edge die, tape to secure (Post-It Tape) and crop with a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (Standard). Watch my Stampin’ Pretty WOW Video here.
