Today I’m sharing a fast and easy happy birthday card I made using The Gang’s All Meer and Label Me Bold stamp sets. The sentiment is cut using scissors, and the sequins come with adhesive already on the backs. How easy is that?!

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:

• Early Espresso card stock (CS) cut to 4-1/4″ x 11″, then scored in half at 5-1/2″
• Very Vanilla CS layer cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″
• Sahara Sand CS layer cut to 3-3/4″ x 5″x
• Very Vanilla CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the inside of the card base

Stamped with the The Gang’s All Meer stamp set:

• meerkat group image and sentiment in Early Espresso ink onto the Sahara Sand CS layer
• single meerkat image in Early Espresso ink onto the Very Vanilla CS for the inside of the card base

Stamped with the Label Me Bold stamp set:

• bold sentiment in Early Espresso ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla Thick CS
• “dirt” in Sahara Sand ink around the bottom of both meerkat images

Cut using Paper Snips:

• bold sentiment

Colored using a Stampin’ Blends Marker:

• shadow around the bottom of the meerkat group in Light Crumb Cake
• Note: Once I decided to stamp the “dirt” I realized this step isn’t really necessary.

Assembled the card:

• burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
• Very Vanilla CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
• Sahara Sand CS layer glued onto the Very Vanilla CS layer
• bold sentiment adhered over the top part of the other sentiment using Black Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals
• 3 Sahara Sand sequins applied onto the Sahara Sand CS layer
• Very Vanilla CS glued onto the inside of the card base
