T his birthday card is an A2 size card using the Pampered Pets stamp & die set. Also, the other stamp/die sets used are: Waves Dies and the Hey Birthday Chick stamp and dies. You can view my YouTube video on how I put this card together @ Craft With Barbara Drake
Project Recipe
Cut your card base (Soft Suede) 8.50 x 5.50 and score at 4.25" for an A2 size card.
Cut Real Red layer 4 x 5.25"
Cut Basic White layer 3.75 x 5" and emboss using the Brick and Mortar 3D Embossing Folder.
On the embossed cardstock, using a blending brush and Soft Suede stampin ink pad, lightly brush color on cardstock.
Adhere the Real Red cardstock to card base. Adhere the embossed cardstock to the Real Red layer. Adhere both to the card base.
Using Basic White card stock, stamp the dog and cat using Memento Tuxedo Ink pad.
Using your die cutting machine, die cut the stamped images of the dog and cat.
Using the bow die from the Hey Birthday Chick die set, die cut with Real Red card stock.
Using the Hey Birthday Chick stamped image with the balloon, stamp on Basic White with Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad. Die cut out and snip off just the balloon. Using Stampin' Blends color the balloon using Lt. Granny Apple Green.
Using Stampin' Blend markers, color the dog with Lt Crumb Cake. His nose with Lt Black and collar with Real Red.
Using Stampin' Blend markers, color the cat with Lt. Gray Granite and the ears with Lt. Petal Pink.
Glue the red bow to the cat's neck area.
Using the Double Oval Punch, punch out cardstock from the In Colors Regal Red using the plaid pattern. Glue these down on the embossed cardstock.
Glue down the dog on the smaller oval. Use dimensionals on the cat, then adhere to the larger scalloped oval punch piece.
Glue the balloon behind the cat.
Stamp sentiment, "I hope your day...." onto Basic White card stock using Soft Suede ink. Using the larger die from "The Waves" die set, die cut the sentiment.
Use ribbon from the Playful Pets Trim and interlock on the sides of the die as shown in my YouTube video. Using dimensionals, adhere to the sentiment and center near the top of the card.
Using the stamp "Happy Birthday" from the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set, stamp using Soft Suede ink onto Pear Pizzazz card stock. Cut out using the Double Oval Punch (smaller oval). Adhere to the inside piece of Basic White card stock. Glue this layer to the inside of the card.
