Handmade Happy Birthday Cards - Flowers and Butterflies Outline Stickers 3

This is another card of the 4 cards I made using some spare outline stickers. It can be done in under 10 minutes. There is really not much to it. This card is very easy and quick to make.




 In this design I used Matchmakers Textured Cardstock with white core size 6” x 6”. If you would like to end up having the white edge when you tear off the edge of the yellow card paper around the outline sticker as in this design, use a card paper with white core. 

For this design you will need:

  • Butterflies outline sticker in silver (see links further bellow for suggested outline stickers)
  • White card paper (15 x 30cm)
  • Saffron yellow card paper with white core ( appx. 8 x 8 cm - large enough to fit the outline sticker on)
  • Dark brown card paper (appx. 8 x 8 cm - large enough to fit the yellow card paper with outline sticker on)
  • Light coffee cream card paper (15 x 15cm)
  • Craft foam pads (I used Stix 2mm thick)
  • 4 purple gems (I used Hobbycraft gems- size 2mm)
  • Double sided tape 
  • "Happy Birthday" outline sticker
  • Craft corner punch (I have had mine for a very long time so you might not be able to purchase the same one, however I found couple of nice craft punches that would also work well with this design - see pictures bellow - link is added with the pictures)

Take white card 15cm x 30cm and fold it in half. Take light coffee cream card paper (size 15 x 15cm) and using a double sided tape attach it to the front of the folded white card. Take yellow card paper (apprx 8 x 8 cm) and attach a butterfly outline sticker to its centre. Tear off the edge of the yellow paper around the sticker to create an uneven edge. Using double sided tape, attach the yellow paper with the outline sticker to the centre of the dark brown card (appr. 8 x 8 cm). Cut corners of the dark brown card paper with the craft punch and attach the dark brown card to the light coffee cream card (15 x 15 cm) using foam pads. Attach 4 purple gems and a “Happy Birthday ” outline sticker to the card.

Done.
