Birthday Present Girl!!


Today, I’m sharing a birthday card that I made using this fun image from Polkadoodles called Surprise Gift Digi – Winnie Celebrations 2.

To make the card, I first imported the image and sentiment into Microsoft Word. I sized the image to fit 3.75″ x 2.5″ and printed it out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using my HP Printer. Using my Cuttlebug and My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Dies, I die-cut the image out. The frame was die cut using Hot Buy – Recollections – Jewel Tones paper and Gina Marie Designs – Loopy Rectangle Die Set. Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock was used to create the base card at the size of 5.5″ x 4.25″. Doodlebug – hey cupcake paper was cut to the same size as the base and applied using double-sided tape. Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Picked Raspberry and a finger dauber were used to ink around all of the 4 sides of the card.

The image was coloured in with Copic markers and 3M double-sided pop-up tape were applied to the back of the image and Loopy rectangle. Both were attached to the centre of the card. The sentiment was stamped onto Fuschia paper using my MISTI and then die cut with a circle punch. Using a white gel pen, I created stitched lines. 2 layers of 3M double-sided popup tape were added to the back of the circle on one side and then glue on the other half and it was popped up onto the card. Lastly, I added a few Kraftin’ Kimmie – Festive Dots just to add a little bit more colour!

Birthday Presents and Cake!!


Sharing a birthday card that I made for a friend using a digital image from Polkadoodles called Cake Time Digi – Winnie Celebrations 2. I really love this awesome collection.

To make the card, I first imported the image and sentiment into Microsoft Word and then printed everything out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using my HP Printer using High Quality Grayscale. I found this to be the best setting as it doesn’t smudge when you colour. Next, I used Gina Marie Designs – Loopy Oval dies to die cut the image out. The image was coloured in with Copic markers.

Using Hot Buy – Recollections – Jewel Tones – 5.5″ x 4.25″ cardstock as the base. I stamped the sentiment using Versa Fine – Onyx Black and Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder. Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool was used to heat the embossing powder. All of the edges of the card were inked with Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Picked Raspberry.

3M VHB – 2 sided tape was applied to the back of the die cut and attached directly to the base. Lastly to finish off the card, I added some Crafts – Rhinestone Stickers.
