Heights of Birthday Delights Card by Donna Idlet

Birthday Delights!

Today Donna pairs our new die set with some birthday favorites to create adorable card that is filled with birthday delights!

She started out by coloring that adorable image of kitties climbing a tall birthday cake from our Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set. She also colored birthday hats and gifts and added glitter to the layers of frosting on the cake for added sparkle! All the images were cut out using the coordinating Newton's Birthday Delights Die Set. 

For her card background she used our new A2 Card Layout 2 Die Set. She cut it from blue paper to create the outer frame and then cut it again several times using fun papers from our Birthday Meows Paper Pad. Isn't it fun how the patterned papers match the image? She stamped the sentiment over the pink pattern and then layered her colored images onto the card. 

This delightful birthday card would be purr-fect to send to a cat lover!

Happy Birthday with a Cherry On Top Card by Amanda Wilcox

Ice Cream Birthday Wishes!

What is sweeter than a birthday wish with ice cream? How about adding some sweet kitties too!? Today Amanda has a yummy birthday card that is filled with a big stack of both!

She started by stamping the fun tall image of kitties and ice cream scoops from our Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set. She colored the kitties in neutral tones of gray and used fun bright teals, pinks and chocolate brown for the ice cream colors! Of course a red cherry on top finishes it off! She cut the image out using the coordinating Newton's Birthday Delights Die Set. 

For her card she started with a white card base and added a fun pale pink panel that was stenciled with stars using our Cascading Stars Stencil and splattered with pink and brown ink splatters. The torn edge on the bottom gives a fun bit of texture.  She layered this onto her card and then layered a vellum square at an angle (cut out using our Frames Squared Die Set). The ice cream stack is the final layer along with the sentiment, which was stamped onto a white stitched cirle, also from our Frames Squared Die Set. A bit of pink twine across finishes the fun layout. 

We love how this card is simple yet filled with small details and textures! What a fun way to make a special birthday greeting!

Dog & Cat Birthday Shaker Cards Cards by Larissa Heskett

Shake Up Some Birthday Fun!

Today we are sharing a duo of run birthday shaker cards by Larissa. One for dog lovers, and one for the cat lovers! 

For both versions of this card she used our fun new birthday themed paper pads. On the dog card she chose the pattern with rows of dogs wearing birthday hats from our Birthday Woofs Paper Pad. Then she found a similar print with kitties wearing rows of birthday hats from our Birthday Meows Paper Pad. She cut each of the papers out to fit just inside the scalloped frame panel from our Frames & Flags Die Set. Then she made each card into a shaker by stitching an acetate window onto the front and filling it with sequins!

Here is the dog version:

Here is the cat version:

For the sentiments, she used messages from our Birthday Barks Stamp Set and Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set. She stamped each message onto a stack of circles that were die cut using our Circle Frames Die Set. 

Do you need a card for a dog lover? 

Or for a cat lover? 

Either way, these cards will definitely do the trick! 

We hope you enjoyed these fun projects by Larissa today! To say hello to Larissa and see more of her creations, you can visit her over at her blog, Larissa Heskett Designs.

Heights of Delights Birthday Card by Diane Morales

 

Heights of Birthday Delights!

This adorable birthday card by Diane will leave you with a craving for ice cream!

She features the cute image of kitties peeking through the scoops of ice cream on a tall ice cream cone from our new Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set. She colored the kitty faces gray and then looked at the colors on the papers from our Birthday Meows Paper Pad and colored the ice cream scoops to match the paper! So fun! She cut the image out using the coordinating Newton's Birthday Delights Die Set. 

For the card, she used our Frames Squared Die Set and cut out a scalloped square for her card base from yellow paper. Then she cut out the rounded square from the same die set twice. Once from white paper and once from the striped paper sheet from our Birthday Meows Paper Pad. She layered these two rectangles together, cutting the striped paper at a diagonal to divide the panel. Then she stamped the sentiment "Heights of delights for your Birthday!" from our Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set.  A few matching enamel dots add a finishing pop of color!

Do you feel like eating an ice cream yet?

Bright Birthday Wishes Card by Maria Russell

Fun and Bright Birthday Card!

Today we are sharing a a fun kitty themed birthday card by Maria using some of our fun new products! 

She started by stamping the image of the kitties climbing the tall cake from our Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set. She colored the image leaving the kitties in neutral browns and adding chocolate icing and yellow polka dots. She cut the image out using the coordinating Newton's Birthday Delights Die Set. 

Next, she created a fun shaker window to put behind the kitties. The teal frame for the window was cut out using our Framework Die Set and she added vellum to the inside. Then she filled the window frame with fun sequins! Perfect for a birthday greeting!

For the card base, she started with a white card base and then added colorful circles over the top. The three patterned paper prints are from pages of our Birthday Meows Paper Pad and our Birthday Party Paper Pad. She cut these cute patterns into scalloped circles using our Circle Frames Die Set.

Last, she added a fun foiled sentiment using our Birthday Greetings Hot Foil Plate and bright teal blue foil. She cut the sentiment out using the banner from our Banner Duo Die Set. 

All the fun prints and colors make this birthday card by Maria a work of art! Plus, the foil adds the perfect finishing shimmer!  To see more of Maria's work, you can visit her over at her blog, Maria Russell Designs !

Cat and Dog Hot Foiled Cards by Jennifer Jackson

Hip Hip Hooray! 

Hello! Jen here today and I'm sharing a couple more cards using our new Dog and Cat birthday themed products along with our new Hot Foil Products! 

The first card features those kitties from our new Newton's Birthday Delights Stamp Set. Isn't it cut how the kitty faces are peeking through the scoops of ice cream!? I colored the image using watercolors markers and cut it out using the coordinating Newton's Birthday Delights Die Set. 

For the card, I decided to add some sparkle so I used our new Confetti Hot Foil Plate and added the thick stripe of confetti to the background using gold hot foil and my hot foil machine on a piece of pink cardstock. I love how this looks! 

Next, I used the Happy Birthday sentiment from our Birthday Greetings Hot Foil Plates with teal foil onto a light teal cardstock. After it was foiled I used our Banner Duo Die Set to cut it out into a small rectangle shape. Then I layered everything together, framing the pink panel with a piece of darker pink cardstock for a bit more added color. 

For my second card, I used the fun stack of pups from our new Birthday Barks Stamp Set. These cute doggies make me smile with their stack of birthday fun! 

I colored this image using copic markers and then used the coordinating Birthday Barks Die Set to cut the image out. This time I added a bit of silver sparkle using our Paw Prints Hot Foil Plate with silver foil onto a blue paper. For the sentiment I again used the Happy Birthday sentiment from our Birthday Greetings Hot Foil Plates with teal foil. This time I used a lime green cardstock. After it was foiled I used our Banner Duo Die Set to cut it out into a small rectangle shape.I also added a bit of pattern up the side of the card, using a plaid print from the new Birthday Woofs Paper Pad.

Isn't fun how you can combine all of our new products together to make fun and sparkly birthday cards!? Don't forget to head over to our shop this weekend and get your new goodies on sale!
