Super quick 'n' easy birthday card



Good afternoon to you all, what a cold one it is too, hopefully it will soon warm up and we can all look forward to the spring flowers popping their little heads up!

I thought I'd come on very quick and share a quick card that I've made this afternoon. It's a very simple and straight forward card and I really liked the finish of it so I thought I'd share with you all. So let's begin.....................

Materials needed:

Basic white thick cardstock

1pc - 4-1/8" x 11-1/2" scored at 5-3/4" for cardbase

2pc - 4" x 5-5/8" for the inside and front of card layer

1pc - approx 4" x 5-5/8" for the stamping and punching out of 3 circles

Scrap piece for the sentiment - should be enough leftover from punching circles out piece


2020-2022 enamel dots

3 for the front of card


Card recipe:

1. Fold and burnish the cardbase.

2. Stamp all of the images using the 'Circle celebrations' stampset, over the front of card layer, stamping the one that looks like a planet using second generation ink, I've used Mint macaron for mine, and then overstamp this image using the image that has little flowers going round in a circle, this time using 1st generation ink. Fill in the gaps as you wish using some of the other images. I've used all of the ones shown below.


3. Once all of the images have been stamped this can be glued flat to the front of the cardbase.

4. Stamp onto one of the corners of the inside layer and then glue this in place flat.


5. Stamp 3 more images onto the card piece that is going to be punched out and then just punch the middle section out like below.


6. Glue the three circles flat over the images that match up on the card front.

7. Stamp the sentiment from the 'You are amazing' stampset, I've used Shaded spruce ink for this and then using my snips I've cut the two words out so that they're seperate from each other, then I've attached to the card front using mini dimensionals.

8. Adhere three of the enamel dots onto the card front, and the card is finished.

I loved how this card turned out and it only took minutes to make, and using a different colour scheme will give it a completely different look.
Thanks for popping onto my blog and having a look I really appreciate it. Until next time take care and keep crafting!
