Heirloom Boutique, Bloom Boutique, Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a birthday card to share with you that I found on Pinterest. You can see the original card by clicking here. I didn't make many changes to it, I thought it was pretty just as it was. There was no link provided to get any instructions. Please read on to see how I put the card together.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Bloom Boutique" 12" x 12" package and taped it to the card base.

For the left panel, I cut a 2" x 3-1/2" piece of DSP from the same package. It's layered with a 2-1/8" x 3-5/8" piece of Barely Blush card stock. And under that is a 2-1/4" x 3-3/4" piece of Hydrangea Hue card stock. I taped these three pieces together and then taped it to the front of the card on the left side. It's about 1/2" from the top edge and 1/2" from the fold.

Using the 3rd smallest die in the "Party Banner Dies" set I cut a piece from Basic White card stock. Then I cut it on the "Eyelet Blooms" die. I used the 4th smallest banner die and cut a Hydrangea Hue piece. I glued the eyelet piece to the Hydrangea Hue piece. I added little dots of glue on the solid areas. 

The flower parts were cut next. They are form the "Heirloom Boutique" bundle. I cut the flower using "Barely Blush" card stock. The flower center is Crisp Cantaloupe and the greenery is "Peaceful Pine. The center was glued to the flower and Dimensionals were added to the back. I set the greenery behind it and they stuck to the Dimensionals. I added some tape where the greenery had covered the Dimensionals and set the piece in place on the banner layers. Dimensionals were added to the back of the banner layers piece and it was set in place about 1/2" from the right side and 1/2" from the bottom, from the tip of the banner piece.

The "happy birthday" was from my computer and it had been sitting on my worktable so I thought I'd use it before it got ruined.  I had cut it out with a die from the "Stylish Shapes" set. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the front of the card about 1" from the top and 1/4" from the right side.  

I had some retired foiled gems that I added to the card. I thought they matched close enough. It's nice to use what I have and make it work.

This was a fun card to make. I think this is a fun bundle to play with. I may have to try a different card tomorrow!  Maybe!

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,
