Hot Dog Birthday Card

 Today I am participating in a blog hop with the Stampin’ Birds.

Today’s card is a birthday card for my nephew. As he’s a twin I decided to put his name right on the front of the card so it was obvious who it was for ! (Don’t worry, his brother will get a personalised card too.)

I started with a standard A5 piece of Coastal Cabana card stock, scored it at 5.25cm from each end, then folded the sides in to create a gatefold card.  I then cut three pieces of Night of Navy measuring 9.9 x 4.3cm, and three pieces of Basic White measuring 9.3 x 3.7cm. I also cut two pieces of DSP from Playing With Patterns measuring 4.65 x 14.2cm to adhere to the front flaps.

I then stamped the three white panels with the Hot Dog Stamp set and the name with the Layered Alphabet. I coloured the dog in using Stampin’ Blends. 

Finally I assembled the card, adhering the top and bottom panel to the left flap and the middle panel to the right flap.

Hopefully he’ll enjoy opening his card tomorrow. I’ll be back soon with his brother’s card but in the meantime please click on the Next button below to hop to the next blog.
