Stampin' Up! Birthday Bliss Card Pretty and Pink and Soft Suede Card

Do you have a birthday stamp set on hand to make a quick card when needed? Even though you mark your calendars, birthdays have a way of sneaking up on you. It just happened to me. I looked at my calendar thinking I still had a day or two to make a card for a friend only to realize I was a day late. Rut-ro.

Thank goodness I could grab my new Stampin’ Up! Birthday Bliss stamp set (pictured below) and quickly design a belated birthday card for my friend. The brown of Soft Suede makes for a beautiful pink and brown combo.

Also, thankfully, I have the Stampin’ Up! On Your Birthday stamp set (pictured below) for the perfect greeting for a belated birthday wish. The stamp I used reads “I just wanted to give you a reason to celebrate a little longer! Happy Belated Birthday”.

Like the saying of the stamp I used “May your layers be many”, after using the 1-3/8″ Square Punch to punch out the stamped image, I layered, and layered and layered. Adding layers is a great way to dress up a small stamped image.

Pleased with my layers, I knew my card needed some balance. I would have loved to have added some Soft Suede Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon across the bottom of my card, but that was not on hand. So, out came my Scallop Trim Border Punch.
