Quick and Easy Birthday Cards

Hi everyone, sharing some quick and easy birthday cards that I made for the Nursing Home that took care of my Mum before she passed last year.   

I have used the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper Pack and the Happiness Abounds stamp set.


I made 20 cards using two of the sheets from the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper Pack.  I cut the patterned paper into 11.8cm x 7.5cm pieces and matted these pieces on to Basic White Cardstock mats cut at 12.3cm x 8cm.  The sentiment strip is 2.2cm x 10cm.  I just used off cuts for these, great way to use up the leftovers from other projects.

The best way to cut the patterned paper is to cut two strips 11.8cm x 30.5cm and then cut these into 11.8cm x 7.5cm pieces you will have a strip left that measures 6.9cm x 30.5cm. Cut this piece into 6.9cm x 7cm and mat these onto Basic White Cardstock cut at 7.4cm x 7.5cm.


Close up of the finished cards.  I used card bases of Blushing Bride, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape.  To add a little embellishment to the sentiment strip I used the Loose Flower Flourishes and a Rhinestone Basic Jewel.


This paper does all the work for you, it is so pretty.  All you need to do is add a sentment and some simple embellishments and you have a quick and easy card.

I hope you enjoyed this project.
