Cut cardstock and Multipurpose Adhesive pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Poppy Parade Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 1-3/4" x 5-1/2" from Daffodil Delight Cardstock
- 1" x 5-1/2" from Mango Melody Cardstock
- 1" x 5-1/4" from Poppy Parade Cardstock
- 7/8" x 5-1/8" from Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets
- 1-1/2" x 4" from Mango Melody Cardstock
- 1-3/8" x 3-7/8" from Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets
- 1" x 2-1/2" from Daffodil Delight Cardstock
Mount the line of little candles image from the Birthday Backgrounds Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Poppy Parade Ink Pad and stamp it on the very bottom edge of the front of the Poppy Parade card on the left side. Re-ink the stamp and stamp it again on the right side of the bottom edge of the card front.
Mount the grouping of tiny, scattered hearts, stars, and flowers image from the Birthday Backgrounds Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Poppy Parade Ink Pad. Stamp it randomly all over the 1-3/4" x 5-1/2" strip of Daffodil Delight Cardstock. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time. Rotate the stamp a little each time and stamp so some of the images go off the edges.
Adhere the 1" x 5-1/2" strip of Mango Melody Cardstock to the back of the stamped Daffodil Delight strip so only about 1/8" of the Mango Melody shows along the long, bottom edge.
Adhere the Daffodil Delight/Mango Melody strip to the top of the stamped Poppy Parade card front.
Place the 1" x 2-1/2" strip of Daffodil Delight cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image as you stamp.
Mount the less filled in, more striped candle image from the Sweet Cupcake Set on Block G. Ink it up with the Mango Melody Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the small Daffodil Delight strip.
Pick out the candle framelit from the Cupcake Cutouts Framelits. Place the stamped candle image on the Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on the Big Shot. Place the candle framelit on top so it is centered over the candle image. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Carefully peel up the protective backing on one side of the 7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet and adhere the adhesive sheet to one side of the Poppy Parade strip. Leave the other protective backing piece in place.
Place the piece of cardstock on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot so that the adhesive side (with protective backing in place) is on the bottom (Poppy Parade facing up).
Place a piece of wax paper on top of the cardstock on the Big Shot.
Pick out the long, squiggly line thinlit from the Cupcake Cutouts Framelits. Place it on top of the wax paper on top of the cardstock on the Big Shot. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush and Paper-Piercing Tool to remove the pieces.
Peel the protective backing off of the long, squiggly line of Poppy Parade and adhere it to the bottom center of the stamped Daffodil Delight strip on the front of the card.
Carefully peel up the protective backing on one side of the 1-3/8" x 3-7/8" piece of Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet and adhere the adhesive sheet to one side of the 1-1/2" x 4" strip of Mango Melody Cardstock. Leave the other protective backing piece in place.
Place the piece of cardstock on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot so that the adhesive side (with protective backing in place) is on the bottom (Mango Melody facing up).
Place a piece of wax paper on top of the cardstock on the Big Shot.
Pick out the wish thinlit from the Cupcake Cutouts Framelits. Place it on top of the wax paper on top of the cardstock on the Big Shot. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush and Paper-Piercing Tool to remove the pieces.
WITHOUT adhering, place the wish cutout along the bottom of the card front just above the stamped candles. When happy with the placement, use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere the candle cut out to the card front at a slight angle so the bottom of the candle will be hidden by the curve at the end of the "h" in the wish.
Now, peel the protective backing off of the wish cut out. Adhere it to the bottom of the card front just above the stamped candles so the curve at the end of the "h" covers the bottom of the candle.
Carefully peel up a Daffodil Delight heart from a sheet of Brights Enamel Shapes making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it as the dot on the "i" in the word wish.
Carefully peel up a Daffodil Delight star from a sheet of Brights Enamel Shapes making sure that you get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere it as the flame over the candle.
