Hi everyone, and welcome to the Creating Kindness Design Team January Blog & Video Hop!This month our theme is Celebrate, our guest designer is the talented Sara Levin, she can be found at www.theartfulinker.com
I have a fun birthday card to share with all of you for this months hop!
How fun and adorable are these Pandas, they are just so happy to be celebrating a birthday!!
I created this super fun card for my daughter Danielle’s birthday in December, she thought it was just so cute and it brought a big smile to her face!!
Here is a close up of one of the cute Pandas.
The Party Pandas stamp set (page 15 of the SAB Brochure) is one of the amazing Sale-A-Bration offerings this year (spend $60 before taxes and shipping and you can choose this cute set for FREE from the SAB Brochure), it was at the top of my must haves when I placed my demonstrator order at the beginning of December.
The fun Bubbles & Fizz DSP (Designer Series Paper) on my card is also a SAB (Sale-A-Bration) offering, it can be found on page 13 of the SAB Brochure.
I pulled the Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight colours from the DSP to create my card. My Pandas are stamped across the Thick Whisper White cardstock three times, I just rotated them slightly each time to give them the look of dancing across the front of the card. I attached some Whisper White Bakers Twine across the three Pandas hands using glue (mini glue dots were too big I found) and popped up the Happy Birthday sentiment in the center of the long banner.
I just love how my card turned out, I hope you do as well!!
Here are the measurements so you can recreate this adorable birthday card at home!
Bermuda Bay cardstock; 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″
Daffodil Delight cardstock; 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″
Bubbles & Fizz DSP; 5-1/4″ x 4″
Bermuda Bay cardstock; 5-1/4″ x 2-1/2″, this is popped up using dimensionals
Thick Whisper White cardstock; 5-1/8″ x 2-3/8″
My Pandas are stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and I used the Light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Marker and the Colour Lifter to give a slight shadow along the inside of the black lines of the Pandas head and tummy. I used the Dark Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers for the hats. My sentiment is stamped in Bermuda Bay ink on a piece of regular Whisper White cardstock.
Here is the video I created to go along with my card.
