Alright, so don’t even bother pulling out your stamps and ink this time! Just stick some white cardstock in the printer and print out these pre-made sentiments for yourself! Then, just cut, tape with foam tape to your card, add a little embellishment and you’ve got 4 birthday cards just like that!

Tutorial Tuesday-Simple Birthday Cards

admin — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 02:26:00 +0000

One of my news years resolutions was to make sure I didn’t miss ANY family birthdays. I did really good the first part of last year, but petered off towards the end. (I always called them, it’s just that getting a card made and sent out sometimes was a little much.) So, I spent a Friday night and made birthday cards for everyone in one night. Now I just need to put them into envelopes and I’ll be ready for an entire year of birthdays! Below are two of the ones I did. To keep it simple I used the same layout and just switched the papers depending on who it was for.

I used a layout from my Project Recipe Book. You can read more about the project book by clicking here. It’s a great tool to have and makes it super easy to create cards and scrapbook pages! The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Hey Cupcake set.

Get ready for some Valentine’s Day crafting next week!

Lots of words, no pictures…

So here are some pictures to break up all the words lately!

This is a Birthday Card I made for a coworker of mine. It’s hard to tell but the brown petals have clear embossing powder on them to make it shiny and a little rhinestone center. As usual, it’s much better looking in person!

This one is for no one in particular…just a fun birthday card that fits inside a standard business sized envelope. There’s a little folder inside to hold money or a gift card. I scrunched up the ribbon to make the icing on the cake and then sewed it to hold in place. It turned out really nicely! -Erin

Birthday Card

Here’s a Birthday Card I created for my boss. It might be hard to see but the H and B in Happy Birthday are cut out, mounted with foam tape for dimension and then I embossed then with holographic embossing powder. It’s mounted on a chocolate background…I think it turned out well, and everyone liked it!

This is another card I whipped up today using my scraps!

And here are some more, these are all brown and blue themed!
