Happy Birthday Background

Stephanie has re-released the Happy Birthday Background Die over at

The Stamps of Life.

There are already ton's of great samples in the gallery but I thought it would make a new sample and here's what I came up with.

The front uses Candles4birthday and is a pretty simple design.

But the inside is tons of fun!

I used the 3D pop up drop in die set for the inside.

And....Partybear2stamp

I hope you enjoyed today's card.

Thanks for stopping by!

Flippin' Pig Pudgie

Wednesday was Chinese New Year and apparently it's the year of the pig so it's perfect that Stephanie released the pig pudgie yesterday!

I used this adorable pudgie to make a fun birthday flip it card.

Here is how it looks when it is "flipped" open.

I used the Flowers with stems die set for all the cute flowers.

I colored the pig with Prisma pencils and blended with gamsol and blending stumps.

I just love this cute piggie!

Enjoy the Year of the Pig!

I needed a cute birthday card for a friend and this cute fox from the foxes2stamp set

was perfect.

All those cute stars come with this die!

3D Birthday Cake decorations

I found another great use for the new 3D Happy Birthday dies.

I don't know if you have "Nothing bundt cakes" in your city but it's a great little place with delicious bundt cakes.

You can walk in and order big cakes and small ones ready to go.

And...for additional charge they will add decorations.

I decided to save money and decorate them myself.

I had two employees whose birthdays were on the same day and I got them each a mini cake and decorated them myself.

In addition to the Happy Birthday die I use the Sizzix Triplit Party Hat die.

So cute!!!

Hope you enjoyed the inspiration of another great use for the die!

Thanks for stopping by!

Flamingo Birthday

Hey Pretty Lady!

I made a fun flamingo birthday card to share with you today

The fun part of this card is the inside!

I used the new 3D Happy Birthday drop in die.

This is such an easy way to make a huge impact on the birthday girl!

Here's another view of the inside so you can better see the way it pops out!

I used flamingos2stamp and Shine patterned paper.

Happy Birthday

Hello Friends!

Today I have a birthday card to share that uses the new 3D Happy Birthday drop in die.

I made an "Impossible Card".

I made this a couple of months ago and have been dying to share it!

Instead of using this die set for a pop up inside the card I used the sentiment die and the start dies to decorate the front of the card.

I also used some dies from the star dies.

This is an awesome and versatile die that is getting a ton of use in my house!

I hope you liked today's inspiration...more to come this week.

Thanks for stopping by!

I just love the sentiments that come with this pudgie.

Stamps and dies are included and you will get tons of use out of it!
