Yesterday I decided to take on the monthly demonstrator challenge from Stampin’ Up! ® . The theme for this month’s #simplestamping challenge is HAPPY BIRTHDAY; using only stamps, ink and paper.
I used the Note Cards and Envelopes because these are ideal for beginner stampers. Not every new paper crafter will want to rush out and order lots of card stock and a paper trimmer. So these packs of 20 card bases and envelopes make card making more accessible.
I used the LABEL ME BOLD stamp set, three colours, paper snips and multipurpose glue for this card. Six of the birthday sentiments have been layered many times to create height on the card.
This card is more subtle. The sentiment comes from the PERENNIAL BIRTHDAY stamp set and the flower from the ORNATE STYLE stamp set. I coloured the flower using Stampin’ Write Markers ™.
The LAYERED WITH KINDNESS stamp set and two classic stampin’ pads, make this such a quick and easy card.
BIRTHDAY BONANZA is a great name for this stamp set – it is a bonanza of party images and sentiments. I used the same three colours as the first card – Mango Melody, Melon Mambo and Pacific Point – bright and bold.
Using a stamp on – stamp off techniques gives two or three different shades of the one colour. I used the PERENNIAL BIRTHDAY stamp set again, along with the POSITIVE THOUGHTS stamp set for this card. Soft Sea Foam and Crumb Cake – just two colours used for this design.
Five birthday cards and 15 more card bases and envelopes to play with!
Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.
Here are the products I used to create these five cards.
