Rustic Retreat Birch Birthday Masculine Fun Fold Card

This card features a typical fold that just has the rectangle components arranged so that the main image tucks under the bear in the right corner to "close" the card.  The bear has dimensionals along the bottom and right side to allow the main image to slip behind it easily.  

A Pool Party layer is perfect signing your name and stamping the "Wishing You a Happy Birthday" sentiment from the set, Band Together. I'm sure this set will be lovely as a Christmas card as well.

Be sure to watch my tutorial below for tips on stamping the Birch Background several times to create the "log cabin" look with more wood grain.

I used a regular Real Red Stampin' Write marker to trim the windows, but everything else was done with Blends.

Free as a Bird Nested Stitched Labels Bluebirds and Designer Series Paper

A simple but sweet card that really showcases the little bluebirds out for a double date.  I colored the males bright and females muted as in nature using our blends.  The bellies were left white with just a bit of Light Crumb Cake blends at the edges. 

For this card, I wanted to show a couple of the pretty patterns in the Bird Ballad designer series paper.  I dovetailed the papers with the Triple Banner punch and used scissors to snip the Petal Pink striped ribbon. As always if you need to make this card, the products are listed below and linked to my Stampin' Up! store to make it easy. You are welcome to contact me with questions or for help with ordering of course.
