One of my favorite new dies in the Stampin’ Up! Catalog is the Happy Birthday Thinlits Dies. It comes bundled with the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set. Besides the new In-Colors that I have been showing you since the catalog started this die is my most used item so far. Here is another card I made – actually I made this one first and then the one using the In-Colors which is the exact same layout.
This one uses a different Designer Paper which is where the color combination came from. I think these colors are more suited to a guy or a pre-teen/teen aged birthday. This paper is the Pick A Pattern Designer Series Paper. It has lot of fun hand-drawn patterns and detailed images and some bright colors. I used the Crushed Curry pattern with the fun circles and paired it with Sahara Sand and Basic Black.
It’s a quick and easy card design – just alter your designer paper piece and choose coordinating colors for the card stock and twine. You could actually make this card with no stamping at all if you just use the die. I added the little “belated” stamp from Happy Birthday Gorgeous set.
Thanks for visiting today. I have my oldest son in town from Seattle for a few days and the middle one is here too. We have some family time schedule for this weekend. I hope you all do the same.
