Good morning! Welcome to the February Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop! The theme for this month’s hop is “Birthday” and I used the sweet Stampin’ Up! Petal Park bundle to make a simple fun fold Birthday card! You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of Balmy Blue Country Gingham 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to a panel of Balmy Blue card stock with liquid glue. I adhered a panel of Regency Park 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a 3″ mini card and adhered the mini card to the DSP panel with liquid glue.

I stamped the large leaf spray line image from the Stampin’ Up! Petal Park photopolymer stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink on Basic White and used stamped off Shaded Spruce ink to stamp the filler image. I cut it with the largest circle die from the Stylish Shapes dies.

I stamped the three large outline flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Petal Park stamp set in Night of Navy ink on Basic White. I stamped the filler flower image in Balmy Blue and cut the flowers out with the coordinating punch. I adhered the flowers to the die cut circle with dimensionals and adhered Milky Dots to the centers. I adhered the decorated circle to the card with liquid glue.

I stamped the birthday sentiment from the Sentimental Park stamp set in Versamark ink on a strip of Night of Navy. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I cut the sentiment out with the small label die from the Sending dies, using the two step die cutting method. I adhered the label to the card with glue dots. I made a bow with Starry Sky metallic ribbon and tucked it under one of the flowers, adhering it with a glue dot. I finished the card with a dragonfly trinket, adhered with a glue dot.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the the flowers from the Stampin’ Up! Petal Park stamp set in Night of Navy in the corner of a Basic White panel. I stamped the flower filler image in Balmy Blue and the leaves in Shaded Spruce – full strength for the outline and stamped off for the filler. I stamped the sentiments from the Sentimental Park stamp set in Night of Navy and trimmed the bottom with a strip of Regency Park 6″ x 6″ DSP before adhering it to the inside of the card.

A pretty floral birthday wish with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Petal Park bundle and Regency Park 6″ x 6″ DSP!
