Simple Happy Birthday

Hello fellow crafters,

It's my brother in-law's birthday today and this is what I came up with.

Sometimes I like to go for clean and simple cards, and this is a great one. But if I did it again I'd go for a lighter background dsp as the Happy Birthday sentiment doesn't stand out very well. 


To recreate this card follow the guide below:
® = retired, (sab) = Sale-A-Bration, (H) = Hostess, (nsu) = not stampin’ up, (ss) = Stamp set, dsp = designer series paper, CS = Card Stock

Start with a base card of Whisper White (cs) measuring 13.5 X 27 cm scored at 13.5 cm.

Using the Subtle folder, emboss the front of the card base.
Using an off cut of Whisper White stamp the sentiment (nsu) in Soft Suede and emboss using the Subtle folder.
Cut 2 pieces of Neutrals dsp measuring 9 x 9 cm and adhere them to the base card using liquid glue and them set at a slight angle.
Die cut the Happy Birthday using Gold Foil and the Happy Birthday thinlits, and use dimensional pads to adhere to the dsp.
Punch out the sentiment using the Washi Label ® punch and use dimensional pads to adhere to the bottom left corner.


Will be back again soon with more cards


Love Annette x
