My first step was to die cut the Postage Collage Die from white cardstock. Then I stenciled the images using the ink colors listed above. I added details to some of the images with colored pencils -nothing fancy, some lines in the cupcake liners, decorative lines on the candles, and a few creases on the bow. I snipped the stamps apart and set them aside while I got to work on the background.
I used the Pierced Stars Plate to die cut a piece of Creamsicle cardstock and then trimmed it to 4 x 5 1/4 inches. To finish the background, I mounted the panel on an A2 side-fold card base with foam tape.
Next, I attached the stamps with either liquid adhesive or foam squares. I finished my card design with a stamped and die cut sentiment, a few clay confetti pieces, and some sprinkles on the chocolate cupcake using a white gel pen.
And that’s it for this sweet birthday card that you can create in less than an hour. Happy crafting!
