Creating a Simple Birthday Card Using the Frames & Florals Designer Series Paper
July 18, 2024
Today we're Creating a Simple Birthday Card Using the Frames & Florals Designer Series Paper. Tuesday we designed a Get Well Card using this set of paper & dies...if you missed it check it out here Click here to see Tuesday's card.
As we mentioned Tuesday--this is a super set of papers & die cuts to quickly and easily create multiple cards because everything coordinates in color and in imagery. In case you missed it..here's the photo of the combo.
This is today's creation...
with a bit closer look...
For today's creation we began with a layer of the lagoon designer paper...we bordered it with a slim layer of Pretty Peacock to define the edges a bit. Then we layered this unit on a Thick Basic White card base.
We nabbed the greenery arch die cut and positioned it to the left of center. Then layered on the 'happy birthday' die cut from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. This awesome greeting is from the Wanted to Say Dies.
Then to accessorize we added a Pretty Peacock & Gold Bow to the center of the greenery arch and 3 large Pretty Peacock sequins (Sequin Trio) which gave a bit of shine to the right side of the card.
Using this designer paper and die cuts takes all the guesswork out of designing and leaves you plenty of time to design some more!!
I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.
