For the Record Birthday Card

Today I am blog hopping with my team, the Stampin' Birds. 

The card uses a stamp set from the January - June 2022 mini catalogue. 'For the Record' will be retiring at the end of June, which is a real shame as I think this is a great stamp set for male cards (always tricky!), and all age groups. You can find the instructions to make this card below....

Supplies

Real Red cardstock – 12 x 14.8cm

Black cardstock – 14.2 x 9.9cm

White cardstock – 14.2 x 9.9cm

White cardstock – 13.6 x 9.3cm

Real Red cardstock – scrap

White cardstock – scrap

Crushed Curry cardstock - scrap

 Equipment

For the Record stamp set

Pumpkin Pie ink pad

Crushed Curry ink pad

Garden Green ink pad

Black ink pad

Layering Circles die set

Classic Label punch

1” punch

Real Red stampin blend pen

Instructions

Fold and burnish the Real Red card base along the score line. Adhere the larger white panel inside.

Take the smaller white panel and stamp the sentiments and stripes following the picture for guidance or using your own design. (I recommend stamping ‘For The Record’ a bit lower than I did in the picture!)

Layer the stamped panel onto the black then adhere the whole panel to the front of the card.

Stamp the image of the record onto both the Red and White card scraps. Using the largest circle die, cut out the red record on the Cut and Emboss machine.

On the white record, colour the central heart using the Read Red pen, and either fussy cut or punch the centre circle out. Affix to the centre of the red record.

Stamp happy birthday sentiment onto Crushed Curry cardstock and punch out using the Classic Label punch.

Adhere the record and sentiment to the front of the card using foam pads.

We made this card at a recent Cake and Cards morning. This was a great card to practise both stamping and die cutting skills, and everyone was pleased with the result.
