A milestone birthday needs a special birthday card!

You are back! I thought maybe your computer had crashed- which means I crash, too!

No, Sal, the last quarter of 2024 was tough and I can’t seem to manage my time very well with all that has happened. I will do better in 2025! Starting today I will begin catching up my journaling of cards and shoebox events, one at a time, and even make a thank you card.

To create this card, I pulled out the Pop-Up dies from Dare 2B ArtZy, which I purchased from Teaspoon of Fun,

Click HERE to see the pop-up cards I made for Valentines Day with these dies and with examples of ones that we made in previous classes manually without dies. There is also a video on that blog post showing the construction by Deb Valder with the die set.

It would be pretty time consuming to make all those cuts and scores manually.

We love a challenge, Sal, but if you can purchase a die set you certainly get a card done more efficiently with less mistakes winding up in the trash. Divinity Designs even has dies for purchase that will perfectly cut out bases and layers if you have trouble measuring and cutting just right. https://divinitydesignsllc.com/a2-landscape-card-base-with-layer-die/

I used the ‘Happy Birthday To You’ Stampin’ Up retired stamp set and ‘Birthday’ dies for the cake. I made a mirror image of the cake, die cut them, and glued them back to back so the back would look nice when popped up. To create a mirror image you stamp your image 2 or 3 times on a Silicone Craft Sheet using the Stamparatus. You then place your white cardstock on the silicone sheet and rub-rub-rub. You place your die under the image and face up to die cut it correctly.

The greetings are in the ‘Birthday Blooms’ Stampin’ Up! stamp set.

I used Evening Evergreen cardstock for the base with a Soft Succulent layer and DSP- designer series paper- with floral images which incorporate both those colors. I wanted the cake to ‘pop’ so I used Rich Razzleberry for the main color.

With the dies, I found the pop up didn’t stay up very well so I added a rectangle of DSP, using another of the dies in the set, and mounted it on the pull out layer under the greeting so it hooks on the edge of the layers and stays up. That worked well.

For the numbers I used the ‘Playful Alphabet’ dies.

I linked the Teaspoon Of Fun dies in the computer with little Sal.

SAL, Share A Love

Happy Birthday To You Pop Up Cake

March 31, 2020 / Leave a comment

Hello Stamping Friends,

Today we will focus on the Happy Birthday To You set. The set has the Happy Birthday To You stamp set and Birthday Dies with lovely leaves and sprigs.

I saw a card on Tina Wardell’s blog: tinascraftyinkspot.com and had a new appreciation for the beautiful flowers. I had focused on the cake and thought it was more of a wedding cake than a birthday cake – and it would work well for a wedding- but when you use only the flowers for the outside of the card it is stunning as a birthday card. Here is Tina’s video:

The card has the birthday cake popped up on the inside with beautiful flowers on the outside. I changed a few things to suit my liking. I used matching colors for the base and the flowers and then used the little dots in the same stamp set and versa mark to decorate the edge of the base.

The inside has the cake popping up! I used our Pearlized Doilies for the base of the cake. You can’t see it here, but the cake actually has a matching cake mirrored image on its other side. The pop up technique and making a mirror image of the cake are both in Tina’s video. Our Silicone Craft Sheet works beautifully to stamp the image -twice (a stamparatus is a must) and then place your white cardstock on the silicone sheet and rub-rub-rub.

To make our time at club more efficient, I made card kits with the Rich Razzleberry/Daffodil Delight, Real Red/Black, Bermuda Bay/Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo/Highland Heather. There was a lot of coloring on the flower images so I chose colors based on the Stampin’ Blends that I have. It worked really well and stampers could all be coloring at the same time.
