Lovely Lily Pad Birthday Card

Today I’m sharing the cards I made for our January Candy Hearts team swap. The theme was Sale-A-Bration, and I used the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set, Lily Pad Dies, and Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper.

Here are the Sale-A-Bration products I used:

Just look at all the colors in this gorgeous paper!

Here’s what I made:

These two cards look so different, and it’s only because the Designer Series Paper layers are from different parts of the same piece of paper:

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:

• Pool Party card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
• Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper (DSP) layer cut to 5-1/4″ x 4″
• Whisper White Thick CS cut to 3-1/2″ x 1″ for the sentiment
• Whisper White CS cut to 5-1/4″ x 4″ for the inside of the card base 

Stamped with the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set:

• lily in Melon Mambo ink onto a scrap of Flirty Flamingo CS
• lily pad in Pretty Peacock ink onto a scrap of Granny Apple Green CS
• sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink onto the small piece of Whisper White Thick CS, on the right

Cut using the Lily Pad Dies:

• lily and lily pad

Assembled the card:

• burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
• DSP layer glued onto the front of the card base
• lily glued onto the lily pad, then both glued onto the left end of the sentiment piece
• lily, lily pad, and sentiment adhered onto the DSP layer using Stampin Dimensionals
• Whisper White CS glued onto the inside of the card base
