Bwahahahaha! That’s CRAZY talk. Of COURSE you like FREE money! 😎💶
I’ve got a quick and pretty card for you today that features TWO goodies already available in the Online Exclusives – the Sweetly Scripted stamp set and Around the Bend Dies. Plus…a couple things from the Annual Catalog – Unbounded Beauty DSP and the Cheerful Daisies stamp set. They ALL came together to make a sweet little birthday card. Take a look-see:
The layout for this one is from this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
And the color palette is from this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge.
I did a quick video on how to make this one, which is posted on Instagram. You can see it on YouTube right here!
I started by adhering some Pretty in Pink Unbounded Beauty DSP to the front of my Pretty in Pink card base using Liquid Glue.
For the next piece – I started with a 3 3/4″ x 5″ piece of Summer Splash paper from Unbounded Beauty. At the bottom – across the 5″ edge – I placed the Around the Bend die – with the lowest part of the curved die touching the bottom edge of the DSP. Then I cut it out using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine.
I stamped the sentiment from Sweetly Scripted in Blackberry Bliss ink.
Then I adhered the panel to the card front with Liquid Glue.
Using the dies in the Around the Bend set, I cut out a Shy Shamrock cardstock leaf and a Shy Shamrock 2024-2026 In Color Glimmer Paper leaf.
I adhered the leaves to the card front with Liquid Glue.
Then I tied a simple white bow from Baker’s Twine and adhered it with a dab of Liquid Glue.
I cut out two Around the Bend flowers – one from Basic White cardstock and one from Unbounded Beauty DSP. I adhered them together to make the flower.
I cut out a small Basic White flower with the die set, adhered it to the flower middle with Liquid Glue then popped the whole thing over the bow with a couple of Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Using a Dark Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Blend, I colored three Iridescent Foil Gems, adhered them to the card front (one in the middle of the flower) and the card front was done.
On the inside, I stamped the small Cheerful Daisies flower in Pretty in Pink in the corner of a Basic White panel. I stamped the outline in full strength ink, the fill in stamped-off-once ink and the center in stamped-off-once Blackberry Bliss.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of the card base and the card was done.
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Cheerful Daisies flower on the front…
…and more Unbounded Beauty DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! It’s sometimes fun to mix-and-match stamp sets and dies and papers, isn’t it?! Especially when you have a couple of pretty stand-alone things like the Sweetly Scripted all-sentiment set and the Around the Bend die set! I added some flowers from Cheerful Daisies – to have a great option for the inside and the envelope (#nonekkidenvelopes) and the Unbounded Beauty DSP does the lion’s share of the work!
I hope you like!

Now Honey, you can’t blame him
For what his mama gave him
It ain’t right to hate him
For workin’ that money….hmmmm. That sorta fell apart on me!
Which takes NOTHING away from the extreme cuteness of his badonkadonk!

Such a pretty card! Love the colors and the scripty sentiment is awesome! Bet that tail was wiggling 1,000 mph about 2 seconds after the photo. 😉
Well – yeah. But for THAT moment – it was at rest!! LOL! Thanks, Amy! 🙂
You are too funny. I have been waiting for July 3 to roll around! It helps assuage waiting for August! Finn is just too cute and looks like he had been walking in mud. Your card is quite unusual for you but it’s purty! Have a blessed day, my friend.
Thanks so much, Karen – every once in a while i have to try something a little different! I’ll be back in the “zone” tomorrow! 🙂
Sweet card!! So happy you joined us at CTD!!
Thanks much, Vickie – appreciate you stopping by!! 🙂
