Special Birthday

December 2, 2025

Today I have a card t share with you I created for my granddaughter’s birthday. I was inspired to create this card after watching Janice Gilhooley’s video on the CDT 31 Days of Christmas. She showed us how to create a card by partially cutting a die. I stamped the large image from the Layers of Beauty stamp set onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the Layers of Beauty Masks to add Bubble Bath and Fresh Freesia ink to the flowers and Lost Lagoon ink to the leaves.

I layered the stamped card onto another card front and cut the edge of the design using the co-ordinating Layers of Beauty Die. I stamped “happy birthday” from the Charming Day stamp set onto the stamped panel using Lost Lagoon ink. I attached the stamped image to the front of the Fresh Freesia card base.

I embossed the “wrong” side of the un-stamped partially die cut Basic White panel using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. I attached the embossed panel onto the back of the card front making sure to line up the die cut edges. I embossed a piece of Fresh Freesia card using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is attached to a Basic White panel before being attached to the inside of the card base. I coloured Iridescent Basic Pearls using the Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blend and attached them to the card front. I wouldn’t have even considered trying this technique until I watched the CDT 31 Days of Christmas video. I am loving all the techniques and ideas the presenters have been sharing and a special thanks to Janice for this technique.

Bye for now,
