diy birthday cards



>> hi and welcome back once again i decided to focus on the handmade cards and i'm going to show you how to create this colorful customized birthday card using some basic scrabooking techniques. to create this card i used a classic white folded card and as first step i cut a patterned paper in the right size to be placed in the front of the card. now to create some contrast i'm going to cut a stripe out of a different paper which i'm going to adhere on the bottom of the card.


using a pencil i'm marking where i need to cut then i trace a guide line using the ruler and finally i proceed with the cut. to decorate the card i chose some stamps which i'm going to stamp on cardstock and cut out so i start by placing the stamp on the acrylic block then i cover it with ink and i stamp it down. et voilã ! now i color the stamp using copic markers


which are simply perfect for coloring as they are super pigmented. here is the colored plane now i need to cut it out. for the sentiment i use another stamp which i place on the card in order to check the correct placing. then i pick it up with the acrylic block and i cover it with versamark in order to create a base for the embossing powder. then i pour some white embossing powder,


i tap off the excess and using the heating tool i melt the powder bringing the sentiment in relief just like so. here is the result! now i can start assemblying the card glueing down the different details. now to connect the different bits i lengthen the sentiment using a white gel pen to connect it to the plane


as you can see the card is still a bit empty so i'm adding some other stamps which i print on cardstock and cut out. like so. now that all my embellishments are ready i can adhere them on the card. and if necessary i'm trimming some down as i'm doing with the upper cloud which i don't want to cover the sentiment. the card is almost done


to customize it a bit more i'm adding the birthday boy name using some green chipboard letters as last step i'm stamping the birthday date on the top of the card using a stamp this will make the card even more unique and customized. et voilã , here is the finished card ready to be delivered to the birthday boy adding a special touch to the gift we chose. that's it for today as usual i hope you liked this tutorial
