Birthday cards are probably the most type of card we make and send, yes well Thank You cards are right up there as well – I do send a lot of those! ………..
………Back to birthday cards…… I like to make a batch of about half a dozen so that I have a few in my stash in case I need one in a hurry. In the 2017 – 2018 Stampin’ Up! Annual catalog there is a single die, tucked away on page 213 (and pictures on page 76) which makes a lovely center piece for my card. I used it as a single layer – which was fine, but felt it needed a little something more so I doubled it up to form a ‘shadow’ effect, and here I have a video to share the technique with you 🙂
With Shadow effect
Card base: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Soft Suede card ~ scored @ 4 1/4
Layer 1: 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 Peekaboo Peach Card run thru the Big Shot with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder
Layer 2: 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 Whisper White ~ also embossed with the same folder
Ink Colors: Peekaboo Peach and Soft Suede
Without Shadow effect
