Birthday cake pop-up card, 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar

Hello everyone.  Normally this blog would post on a Sunday morning; however, this would put my advent calendar out of order.  I already have one post that way....so let's not do that again.  I do have a YouTube video tutorial on how to make this card over on my channel.  Today is day 3 and I've used the included stamp set and the contents of windows 1 & 2 on this card.

Arched Wishes geometric birthday card

I’m finishing up with Arched Wishes today with a geometric design that has a masculine feel.  It’s a fairly simple layout and goes together quickly.  You can watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel to see what I’ve done.  I also shared my first preorder mini haul for the new products being released in May.  I didn't preorder all that much.  I'll have a much larger haul in April.  Stay tuned for that.

It's a good day to celebrate birthday card

 The card I have for you today continues using those Sale a-bration free items Stampin' Up! offered through February 28.  I showed this card during a live tutorial on Thursday before SAB ended.  However, if you don't have that particular stamp set, you can use any small Happy Birthday, confetti or other sentiment you have in your stash and still make a card very similar.  The technique of making your own designer series paper is the main focus here.  The remaining images from this card are all still available in current stamp sets available in my online store.  You can watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel where I show you how to make your own paper and how to make your own banner piece to fit the die cut banner from Birthday Celebration dies.

Birthday Celebration bundle 164599* (includes stamps 164592 & coordinating dies 164598)

Pocket Thoughts 163547 (for the cupcake image)
