I used some products from the Playing With Patterns Suite Collection along with the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set and the Stitched So Sweetly Dies to create today’s fun pop up birthday card.

Here’s what I made:
The Night of Navy card stock and ink look almost black in these photos, but they’re much bluer in person.

Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
- Night of Navy card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
- Purple Posy CS layer cut to 3-3/4″ x 5″
- Playing With Patterns Designer Series Paper (DSP) layer cut to 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″
- Whisper White Thick CS cut to 8-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ for the insert, then cut and scored according to the diagram below
- first DSP pattern for the inside cut to 3″ x 1-1/2″, and scored in half at 1-1/2″
- second DSP pattern for the inside cut to 2-1/2″ x 1-1/4″, and scored in half at 1-1/4″
- third DSP pattern for the inside cut to 2″ x 1″, and scored in half at 1″

- outer sentiment in Night of Navy ink onto a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS
Stamped with the Pattern Play stamp set:

Assembled the card:
- burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
- burnished all the folds in the insert with a Bone Folder
- die cut sentiment glued onto the DSP layer
- DSP layer glued onto the Purple Posy CS layer
- Purple Posy CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
- remaining DSP pieces glued onto their corresponding “boxes” on the insert
- ribbon adhered onto each side of each box as shown, using Stampin’ Seal +, and wrapped around to the back
- ribbon tied into a small bow and adhered above the top box using a Mini Glue Dot
