Designer Tip: This card would work for many different occasions, such as thank you or thinking of you—simply change the words on the die-cuts to change your theme.
- Cover the card front: Place your card with the fold at the left. Cover the card front with aqua chevrons/brown lace border paper, with the border even with the bottom edge of the card. Cover the top 3” of the card front with yellow flourishes paper. Cut a 5”x1/2” strip of brown striped paper and glue even with the bottom edge of the yellow paper. Ink the edges brown.
- Remaining card front: Punch out the green/brown circular die-cut frame with pink flowers at the left side. Write or computer print “Best Wishes for a very Happy Birthday” on the right (green) side of the die-cut. Foam tape to the card, centered over the brown striped paper. Tie a knot centered on a 4 1/2" length of 4” ivory ribbon and cut ribbon ends to a “v”. Zot™ near the bottom edge of the die-cut as shown.
- Inside the card: Cut a 5”x3 3/4" aqua chevrons/brown lace border paper and ink the edges brown. Glue to the inside with the brown lace border even with the bottom. Glue a 5”x2” yellow flourishes paper across the aqua paper, 1 1/2" from the bottom. Cut a 5”x1 1/4" brown striped paper and glue centered across the yellow flourishes paper.
- Remaining inside the card: Punch out the narrow ivory label and the pink/green floral postage stamp die-cuts. Ink the edges of each with brown ink. Write or computer print “And many more!” centered on the narrow ivory label. Cut a 5”x1/8” strip from aqua chevrons paper and thread it through the holes in the narrow ivory label. Slide the label to the center of the strip and place centered across the brown striped paper. Glue the left side in place. Cut a 1 1/2" length of 1” ivory ribbon and cut ends to a “v” as shown. Place the ribbon centered beneath the narrow label and glue in place. Glue the right side of the label and paper strip as shown. Glue the postage stamp die-cut overlapping the upper left edge of the paper.
