STAMPtember: Birthday Celebrations

09/2/2018

Hey, everyone! WHOO HOO! It’s STAMPtember!!! This is a month-long PARTY hosted by Simon Says Stamp! Be sure to read to the end of the post to see a fun promotion Simon Says Stamp is offering as well as a link to some more inspiration!

STAMPtember: Birthday Celebrations

I got the new Birthday Borders set from Simon Says Stamp, and I was immediately able to whip up these simple, but cute birthday cards! I only used a few extra supplies to do so.

Simon Says Stamp, Birthday Borders

This card is a one layer card using 3 of the images from the Birthday Borders stamp set. I used Copic markers to do some blending on the birthday candles. Super simple, but I love how it turned out!

For this second card, I stamped the outline of the single candle all over, and using the same Copics I colored them in, I then colored the background with W2. I stamped and clear embossed the sentiment on vellum, and then added yellow stickles to the flames. Another pretty simple card, but I am sure it will make someone’s day when I send it to them!

Be sure to head over to the Simon Says Stamp Blog today because there is a bunch of people celebrating today and have inspiration for you!

Hope you have a fabulous time during all of the STAMPtember celebrations!!
