It's a Banner Birthday

The colors in this card are pulled from my current favorite designer series paper, Wildflower Birthday! The subtle shades of pink, green and blue are feminine and sweet. 


The layout would also be nice in primary colors for a child. Using the Sale A Bration Star Struck Embossing Folder and Purple Sequins adds the best touches to the card. 
It is an easy card to put together except for fussy cutting the small flowers and leaves.

Soft Sea Foam-8 1/2 x 5 1/2 (score at 4 1/4), 3 x 4
Basic White - 4 x 5 1/4 (emboss with Star Stuck Embossing Folder), 2 7/8 x

A Horizontal Front Flap card

Image
  What a cute idea for a card opening and I love the dual use of the Blooming Phrases stamp set. First let's do the folding of the card. Cut a piece of Designer Series Paper 8 x 6 3/4 being mindful of any pattern you have to consider, using a landscape orientation. Score on the left side and top at 2 3/4. Fold and gently burnish the left score line and make a tic mark as indicated. Now fold and burnish the top score line the same way, making the tic mark as indicated. To create the diagonal score, match the tic marks up on your paper trimmer and make the score, fold and burnish To create the fold, push the diagonal fold in and create the square on the top of the Designer Series Paper. Adhere this to the Daffodil Delight Card base. Now for the fun part, the stamping. On the Basic White square, stamp the greeting in Old Olive ink. To create the flower stems, use the "tail end" of the greeting stamp  Create seven stems of different lengths with Old Olive ink. Stamp the flowe...
