My card today is a cheerful, summery birthday card. I have a few friends with June birthdays and want to create especially “happy” cards for them this year. Although, I guess I always try to create those kinds of birthday cards but it was more so in my mind this year. All the “pretty” on this card came from the new Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper. As sad as I was to see the Best Dressed DSP retire, I was equally happy to see this new paper. It’s so bright and cheerful and highlights the new In-Colors beautifully. I’ve already made a few cards with it and keep coming up with more ideas…it’s that inspiring!
Today’s card is a fun fold and came together surprisingly quickly…for me. I’ll admit that I labor over some of these cards a little too much. So when I create a card relatively quickly and I’m pleased with it, I’m pretty surprised.
Here is the fold which would be consider a gate fold. It’s a regular 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ card and it’s scored at 2 1/2″ and 6 1/2″ to create two front panels.
The daises that I like so much work really well with this paper, along with the new Celebrate Sunflowers stamps, which I’ll get to soon!
I did use a sentiment from the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set for the inside along with a sentiment from the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set.
You may have noticed that I’ve changed up my blogging format a little today and didn’t give measurements or directions like I usually do. Instead of listing everything here, I’ve created a downloadable PDF for this project. This will have all photos and card directions that can be viewed and printed out for future reference.
