I used the Friendly Hello stamp set from Stampin' Up! I wasn't quite sure what to do with it, so I followed the Mystery Stamping on YouTube to get some inspiration. I think it turned out great!
I needed a masculine birthday card, and I found this card on Pinterest that I decided to copy. I used the Beauty of Friendship DSP and stamp set on the inside of the card. The Happy Birthday on the front is from the Biggest Wish stamp set.
I wanted to use up some random envelopes with this card. So I measured the envelope, subtracted a quarter inch from each side, and that is the size of the face of the card. This fun fold opens only in the middle, so I made the middle one half the size of the card face and each strip of patterned paper one quarter of the card face (minus one fourth inch to give the border). The patterned paper is just random paper from my stash. I cut white cardstock for the inside middle and the outside middle. The front piece of white I embossed with SU birthday greetings embossing folder. Then I stamped the crayon from School Days from CTMH and cut them out. I adhered them with dimensionals. The red gems are from the dollar store. Easy but fun!
I found this card on Pinterest that I thought would be fun to recreate, but it didn't have any information on how to make it, so I got to figure it out for myself! Here are the details: 1. Cut Crumb Cake to 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. Score and fold at 4 1/4. 2. I used some old CTMH paper, Indian Corn Blue, for the next layer. Cut to 5 1/4 x 12. Score at 4, 6 1/2, 9, and 10 1/2. Fold accordion style. 3. I embossed the smallest fold with the tree bark embossing folder. 4. Layer the other two panels, 3 3/4 x 5 and 2 1/4 x 5. 5. Stamp and cut images. Adhere to front as desired. I really liked the style of this stamp set. It was fun to work with!
