Happy Friday! If you check out Page 19 of the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog you will find the Mix & Match line of products that will assist you in making some quick, easy and fun cards. For this card today I used the Simply Said Stamp Set (which contains a variety of sentiments for many occasions), the Calming Creek Cards & Envelopes, Saying Something Ephemera Pack and the Something for Everything Ephemera Pack.
I first selected a card and envelope in Pool Party from the Calming Creek Cards & Envelopes pack. A white panel was stamped repeatedly in Pretty in Pink ink using the “Yay” stamp from the Simply Said Stamp Set and then this panel was matted to a piece of Pretty in Pink cardstock. The panel was adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

From the Something for Everything Ephemera Pack I punched out a banner, a piece of cake with a candle, and for use on the inside of the card a cupcake. I selected a sentiment from the Saying Something Ephemera Pack for the outside of the card. The banner was adhered to the panel on the card front. I die cut a medium sized circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies in Pool Party, then adhered the cake cutout to the circle. The circle was adhered to the stamped panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals and the sentiment was adhered to the lower right of the circle unit.
The “Happy Birthday” sentiment was stamped onto the inside panel in Pretty in Pink ink and the cupcake cutout was adhered to the lower corner of the panel. The panel was adhered to a Pretty in Pink mat, then adhered to the inside of the card.

To finish up the card, I added a Pretty in Pink Bordered Ribbon knot bow to the card front and several In Color Resin Dots. So quick and easy! If you would like to recreate this card you can download, print and save the pdf tutorial by clicking on the image below. Happy crafting!
