Floral Cake Birthday Card

The SU! 'Happy Birthday to You' stamp set was one of the offerings during Sale-A-Bration in 2020.  It's time for the 2021 Sale-A-Bration now so I thought it was high time I inked up the lovely cake stamp!  Here's the card and envelope together.


The card measures 5 3/4" square and my colour combo is Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride, Basic Gray, Granny Apple Green and Whisper White.  I embossed the Blushing Bride square with the utterly gorgeous 'Parisian Flourish' embossing folder.  I used Stampin' Blends to colour the cake and cake stand.  I stamped two images and die cut the entire cake image plus just the flowers and leaves and I popped up the flowers and leaves portion.  I attached a strip of Granny Apple Green gingham paper and popped up the cake.  I tucked a die cut sentiment banner behind the cake.  I added three glitter enamel dots to the banner to complete the card front.


Here's a closer look at the birthday cake.


Here's the inside of the card.  I fussy cut a stamped and coloured flower and glued that over the gingham paper strip.


Here's the envelope flap covered with the cheery gingham paper.


Here's the front of the envelope with a popped up die cut name label.  I only needed a small name label as this card has been sent to my friend Bev!
