Birthday cards are great and so easy. They just have to be fun! Fun was the main thought behind this set of monochromatic birthday themed cards. The design we used is also nice because it is quickly reproducible and one can make many cards in a fairly short time.Supplies:
Coordinating patterned and solid colored papers and cardstock.
Paper Punches: birthday-themed small punches, 3/4" and 1" circle punch.
Fiskars Circle Template and rotary tool (we use the 4" and 4 1/2" circles).
"Happy Birthday" stamp
Versa Mark embossing ink and colored embossing powder
buttons
solid colored stock cards/envelopes.
Zig glue pen / Runner adhesive
How to:
Punch out the birthday images in patterned paper. Punch the outline left with a 3/4" circle punch. Center and glue these on 1" punched circles of solid cardstock. Cut out the 4" circle on patterned paper, and the 4 1/2" circle on solid paper. Glue the smaller circle offset within the larger circle. Glue the 1" circles in a wheel pattern to the large circle. Adhere to card. Stamp and emboss title on card. Adhere buttons. Done!
Variations:
Replace the birthday themed punchies for hearts, Easter eggs, candy, Christmas punches and swap out the stamp to make for almost any holiday or event.
