The base of my 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 Pool Party card stock and textured it using the "Lazy Daisy" embossing folder. I glued it to the front of the card.
The Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from the "Waterside Retreat" 12" x 12" package. I cut it at 1-1/2" x 5" and I taped it to a 1-3/4" x 5-1/4" piece of Mossy Meadow card stock. I glued this to the left side of the embossed piece.
I cut a Basic White square using the third die in the "Stylish Shapes" set. I stamped the background using the die in the "Wild Bunch" set. I cut a 2-1/4" x 2-1/4" piece of Mossy Meadow card stock for the layer. I added Dimensionals to the back and set it on the front of the card about 3/4" from the fold and 1-1/8" from the top edge.
The cow is from the "Wild Bunch" set. It was stamped using Basic Black ink. I had used my "Scan n Cut" machine to cut him out. I had stamped a full sheet of characters from that set and cut them all out at one time. I colored it using Golden Glow ink and a Blending pen. I didn't buy the Blends pens in the in colors because they won't be around long enough for me so I just use a Blending pen and the ink. I did outline some areas using the light Pecan Pie Blends pen and for the mouth I used both light and dark Petal Pink. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the square.
The "Happy Birthday" is from the same set and was stamped using Basic Black ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock. I used the "Three Banner" punch to punch them out. I added Dimensionals to the back and set it in place on the front of the card about 3/8" from the bottom edge and 1/4" from the right edge. And that was it.
I think it's a sweet card and it was very fun to make.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,
Wanda
