It's your Birthday, It's your Birthday!!!!  Birthdays are so much fun even if your not a kid anymore.  Aren't we all kids deep down?  I know I am.  I love to celebrate   Eating cake, and ice cream...Did I mention eating cake.  It's so much fun getting together with family and friends to celebrate that special day.

Supplies used:  All items used are current Stampin' Up! products.

• 
  

Here’s How I made it!

Cut:

• Sahara Sands Cardstock 5 1/2 x 8 1/2
• Basic White Cardstock 4 7/8 x 3 1/2

Before stamping your Basic White Cardstock, using washi tape, place a very thin border around the border.

Stamp using Calming Camellia:

• using Sahara Sand Ink, randomly stamp on the Basic White cardstock.  The stamp does not have to be perfect.  It can be stamped off as well.

Stamp using Friendly Hello:

• Stamp in Soft Suede Ink the sentiment "Hope you have the BEST BIRTHDAY"

Die cut using Stictched So Sweetly Dies:

• place the rectangle die that measures 2 3/16 x  1 3/16 around your sentiment and die cut

Assemble the Card:

• Fold the Sahara Sands Cardstock, burnish the fold with a bone folder.
• Take the Embroidered Ribbon, cut a piece that will run across the middle of the stamped image. Make the ribbon long enough to slightly wrap around the back of the stamped image.  Adhere to the stamped image.  Using another piece of ribbon, make a bow.  Place on the left hand side of the stamped image. Adhere.
• Using dimensionals, place on the back side of the sentiment that was die cut with the Stitch So Sweetly die.  Adhere in the middle of the ribbon.
• Adhere the Basic White cardstock that was stamped with Calming Camellia

I hope you enjoyed making this card with me.  It was such a simple, easy card to make when you need something quick.  I bet this card would be fabulous with a bright pink color.  

Happy Crafting,

Lisa
