Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Are you ready to embark on a creative journey filled with a blast of color and a touch of sass? Well, you’re in for a treat today as we dive into today’s birthday card that’s as fun and vibrant as it gets. So, grab your Patchwork Pieces Dies, Stargazing Designer Paper, and Wanted to Say Dies, because we’re about to get crafty!

Start by selecting your Lemon Lime Twist cardstock for the card base. This lively green hue sets the stage for our vibrant creation. Cut the cardstock to 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ and fold it in half – this will be the canvas for your masterpiece.

Now, it’s time to incorporate some whimsical patterns into our design. Take out your Stargazing Designer Paper, and die cut one of each of the Lemon Lime Twist and Pumpkin Pie patterns … This gives you enough for 2 cards. I added a piece of black and white dotted designer paper from some I had laying around to add some fun pops of white. Cut a piece of Basic Black 4″ x 5-1/5″ (same as the Polka dot paper) …This will be the backdrop for our patchwork pieces.

This is where the magic happens! Grab both colors of your Patchwork Pieces and adhere them to the black to create a medley of funky shapes. Arrange them on your card in a random, patchwork-style pattern. Don’t worry about perfection – the more whimsical, the better! Now, trim down the black cardstock to create a border around your funky pattern.

The greeting comes from the Wanted to Say Dies. Cut out the base sentiment from the black and the detail “birthday” from your Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. Stack them and glue them together with your Liquid glue. You can even add a touch of Wink of Stella for some glitz!

Your card is almost ready to dazzle! To really make that greeting POP, punch or die cut a circle from your Vellum Cardstock and attach to the front of your card. If you like, add a few embellishments like sequins, rhinestones, or even a ribbon bow. These little details can take your card to the next level.

There you have it, friends – a DIY birthday card that’s bursting with color, personality, and a sprinkle of sas. Perfect for all ages, this card is sure to bring a smile to anyone’s face. Time to embrace your creative side, laugh a little, and send some handmade joy to your loved ones.

Happy crafting, and even happier birthdays! 🎉🌟🎈
