Handmade Happy Birthday Cards - Flowers and Butterflies Outline Stickers 4

This is the 4th handmade card I made using some spare outline stickers. This card design is quite different to the previous 4. It looks a bit more complicated but even this card is not difficult 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 round the edge of the medium dark coffee cream card paper as I have in this design, use a card stock 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)
• White card paper ( appx. 6 x 6 cm - large enough to fit the outline sticker on)
• Medium dark coffee cream card paper with white core(appx. 9 x 9 cm - large enough to fit the white card paper with outline sticker on)
•  Medium dark coffee cream card paper (7 x 15 cm)
•  Dark lilac card paper (5 x 15 cm)
• Light coffee cream card paper (15 x 15cm)
• Craft foam pads (I used Stix 2mm thick)
• gel pens (various colours)
• adhesive ribbon (see link bellow)
• Double sided tape 
• "Happy Birthday" outline sticker

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. Attach medium dark coffee cream paper (7 x 15 cm) to the left on the light coffee cream card and then attach the dark lilac card (5 x 15cm) to the left on the dark coffee cream paper (7 x 15cm) using double sided tape. Take medium dark coffee cream paper (9 x 9 cm) and tear off the edge to create a uneven round shape and attach this to the main card using foam pads. Then take a white card paper (apprx 6 x 6 cm) and attach a butterfly outline sticker to its centre. Colour in the butterfly sticker using gel pens. Tear off the edge of the white paper around the sticker to create an uneven edge. Using double sided tape, attach the white paper with the outline sticker to the centre of the medium dark coffee cream round shaped card.
Attach lilac flower ribbon to the right edge of the lilac card and add “Happy Birthday ” outline sticker.

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 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.

Quick and Easy Birthday Cards for Men and Boys - Red Car on a Brown Background

And todays lil treat... a very easy to make birthday card in boy blue! Just in time for the special boy I didn't forget.

You will need:

• White card paper
• Medium brown card paper
• Blue card paper
• Yellow card paper
• Anita’s outline stickers (car collection silver)
• Double sided tape
• Craft foam pads (I used Stix 2mm thick)
• “Happy Birthday” outline stickers
• Red and yellow gel pens

I got all the materials I need to make these from the usual suspect...Hobbycraft...of course, but of course you can always get your own colours and cards from your favourite supplier.

Take white card 15cm x 30cm and fold it in half. Take a blue card (size 15cm x 15cm) and using double sided tape attach it to the white card. Attach car outline sticker onto a small piece of a brown card paper and tear outline around the car. Colour the inside of a car with a red gel pen (you may need to do 2 layers) and headlights yellow. Attach the piece to a yellow card paper (apprx. 8.5cm x 10.5cm) using foam pads and then attach the yellow card to the blue card using foam pads. Add “Happy Birthday” sticker to the card. 

See, I told you it was easy!
