Pennant birthday card

It's been a busy summer with not a lot of crafting time so it's been really nice to get back in the craft room this week. This month's card is for a young man who is hitting double digits, so it needed to be fun and young, but not too babyish!




To create this card I cut an A4 piece of Daffodil Yellow cardstock lengthwise and folded in half to create the card base.


I covered the front with matching Daffodil Yellow DSP and stamped 'You are Amazing' directly onto the DSP using Misty Moonlight ink.

Using the Pennant Builder punch (retired) I punched four white triangles with matching pennants in Mango Melody, Misty Moonlight, Highland Heather and Coastal Cabana DSP. I hand penned the number ten in the two centre pennants and adhered them to the front of the card to form the bunting effect.



Using a scrap of Basic White I stamped the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment in Bermuda Bay and punched it out using the rectangular postage punch. I then created a border by punching two further postage shapes in Bermuda Bay DSP. This was then adhered to the front of the card using Dimensionals.
