Cased Inspiration... Artistically Inked Happy Birthday Card


As a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, we like to share ideas and case ideas and that inspire us.  Today's Happy Birthday cards were cased and inspired from one of my own posts from January 3, 2022 Click to see original post.  I used the Artistically Inked Bundle which includes the Artistically Inked Stamp Set and coordinating Artistic Dies.  I just changed up the colors to Fresh Freesia and Pool Party.  I think this pretty card layout would work with any color.

Card Details:
  • White Cardsstock card base:  7 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
  • White Cardstock layer:  5 1/4" x 3" - embossed with Macrame 3D Embossing Folder
  • Fresh Freesia and Pool Party DSP:  1" x 5 1/2"
