So Long

 For today’s card, I wanted to use the outgoing In Color cardstock from Stampin Up that just retired,  I cut 1/2 inch strips and laid them on a diagonal on the card front and simply added a diecut sentiment cut from the now retired Happy Birthday Die.

Broadway Birthday

 Today’s card features the Stampin Up soon to be retiring Broadway Bound #146277 DSP.  This paper is awesome because it has bright party designs on one side, all-occasion designs with gold foil on the other side—all you need for glitzy and bold projects! I added the gold foil sentiment cut from the retiring Happy Birthday #143700 Thinlit die.

Country Livin Birthday

 Today’s card is a masculine card with a lot of western flair.  The background DSP is from the Wood Textures DSP #144177 from Stampin Up.  I added the next layer using the Buffalo Check # 147797.  I stamped the boots from the Country Livin’ #141922 stampset and hand cut them out.  I added a lasso from the Braided Linen Thread #147808.  The birthday sentiment was cut from the Happy Birthday Thinlits #143700.

Western Birthday

 A great big birthday shout out to our brother Chris today. Today’s card is a manly man card that starts out with the Wood Textures DSP #144177 from Stampin Up.  The next layer was stamped using the Buffalo Check Background stamp #147797 and I randomly stamped a wee star from the Frights and Delights stamp set from the Sept 2018 My Paper Pumpkin kit. I then added the boots stamped using the Country Livin’ #141922 stamp set and then cut out.  I made a mini lasso using the Braided Linen Trim.  The sentiment was cut from the Happy Birthday Thinlits #143700 to complete this masculine birthday card.

Manly Moments

 Today’s card is an alternative design using leftovers from the May 2018 Manly Moments My Paper Pumpkin kit by Stampin Up.  I added a piece of the Wood Textures DSP #144177 to man this card front up!  I added the Happy Birthday sentiment cut from the Happy Birthday Thinlit #143700.

Simple Birthday

 I had a few scrap pieces of the the now retired True Gentleman DSP from Stampin Up laying around so I used the Tailored Tag #145667 to punch them out and just placed them on a very vanilla card base.  I added the Happy Birthday sentiment cut from the Happy Birthday Thinlit #143700 and I had a quick and easy birthday card.

This little piggy

I squealed with excitement when I saw how cute this card turned out featuring the This Little Piggy #143919 Stampin Up stamp set.  Cammie was not “aFrayed” to start off by creating a burlap layer using the Burlap #143982 background stamp. The frayed edges and rustic image will set the tone  with the look and texture of burlap without the weird smell of old potato sacks! She then created the focal panel using her masterful brayering skills and completed the card with the birthday greeting cut using the Happy Birthday Thinlits #143700.
