Use Stampin' Up!s Cottage Wreath Bundle to Create One or Two Fabulous Birthday Cards for a Dear Friend or Family Member This Fall

Back on October 1st, when Stampin' Up! was hosting their very first free Virtual Event for World Card Making Day, they were demonstrating a fun birthday card idea using the Cottage Wreath Bundle from the July-December Mini Catalog.

On today's post you have two choices for the Birthday Card. Make one or both. My design is up first then followed by Stampin' Up!s information for their card design. The two cards are similar but different enough I wanted to share both with you!

Supplies Needed and Cutting Directions:

Cottage Wreaths Bundle

Crumb Cake Card base cut 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4"

Crumb Cake Classic Stampin' Pad

Two strips of Flirty Flamingo cardstock cut 3/4" x 5-1/2"

Abigail Rose Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut  2-3/4" x 5-1/2"

2 pieces Basic White for Wreath 3" square

Old Olive Classic Stampin' Pad

Set of Old Olive Stampin' Blends pens

2-1/2" Layering Circle Die

Flirty Flamingo for tag1/4" x 2-1/2"

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

Flirty Flamingo for bow 1-1/2" square

Basic White cardstock for inner layer 4" x 5-1/4"

Abigail Rose DSP coordinating piece for envelop flap cut 2-3/8" x 6"

The technique I used for the Die Cut Wreath was to scribble side to side (full width fo paper) with both Light and Dark Old Olive Blends on one piece of the Basic White. You want to have little spaces of the white cardstock showing through. Die Cut the wreath and place it upon the stamped wreath with glue dots.

The rest of the card is pretty self explanatory, follow the photo to create this option. Or proceed below to see Stampin' Up!s version.
