Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Birthday Card

Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Birthday Card

Here is another card created for you using upcoming retiring products! The Pansy Patch Stamp Set and Pansy Dies are special and an all-time favorite of mine! I will be very sad to see them go! Pansies are so cheerful with their little faces and perfect for creating birthday cards!

I used a Blending Brush to blend Lemon Lolly ink across the center of a white panel. This serves as the background to really set off the pansies. I used the Pansy Dies to cut out leaves from Old Olive and Mossy Meadow cardstock. The pansy pieces were cut out from Highland Heather and Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I used a Sponge Dauber to darken the three-petal pieces, then assembled the pansies and leaves. Complete cutting instructions are included in the linked pdf below!

Once the flowers and leaves were assembled I arranged them onto the ink-blended panel until I was happy with their placement. I used liquid glue to first adhere the stem and bud to the panel, then adhered the flowers down. The leaves were adhered last, using liquid glue and I tucked the base of the leaves under the pansies. The “Happy Birthday” sentiment was stamped onto a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock in Highland Heather ink and I used the third from the smallest circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies set to cut out the sentiment. Before adhering the sentiment to the card front I tied a single Linen Thread bow and adhered it towards the lower right of the ink-blended panel. I then adhered the sentiment label over the bow using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The completed panel was adhered to a Lemon Lolly mat, then adhered to the card front.

On the inside panel, I stamped an additional sentiment in Highland Heather ink and used the two step stamps to stamp a pansy in Lemon Lolly ink. The ruffled center of the flower was stamped in Highland Heather ink and the flower center was stamped in Pumpkin Pie ink. The inside panel was adhered to a Lemon Lolly mat then adhered to the inside of the card.

I used the same two-step stamps to stamp Lemon Lolly pansies onto the envelope front and envelope flap. The ruffled centers were stamped in Highland Heather ink and the pansy center was stamped in Pumpkin Pie ink. To finish up the card I added a Fresh Freesia Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dot to each of the flower centers on the card front. I also added a dot to the sentiment label.

The Pansy Patch Stamp Set and Pansy Dies are things you definitely need to add to your crafting stash! You can grab these items in the online store…but don’t wait too long. These items will be retiring at the end of April and only while supplies last!
