Pastel Birthday

Hi Everyone! It’s Melissa here with you today, and I’m bringing you a fun, happy birthday card, using some playful and unique Pretty Pink Posh products. My birthday is just around the corner, and I thought it would be fun to create a card to celebrate!

I began with the Star Cover Plate Die and layered it over a block of white cardstock using dimensional adhesive.  Before layering the two together though, I added color to the base layer that you could see peeking out from each star.  I focused on my favorite pastels in pinks, yellows, aquas, and a bit of green.

Next, I die cut a vellum layer from the Eyelet Diamonds Dies.  I added it to the center of my card, just above the scrunched seam binding bow that I wrapped around the lower portion of my card.

My sentiment was die cut using the Happy Birthday Shadow Dies and I added them to the center of my card to shine in the spotlight!  

I couldn’t wait to bring in a bit of florals and chose to use the Spring Foliage Dies. I love their sweet, pierced details and the variety of shapes and sizes they come in. After I nestled them in a few of the star-shaped openings, I added one last detail in the form of a secondary sentiment.  I used the Party Time stamp set and added my chosen sentiment to a die cut Banner Greetings 3 die. I tucked it under a few flower petals on a fun diagonal.

Happy Summer crafting!

Melissa
