I know several people who celebrate a birthday right around Christmas, and I thought these might be fun card ideas for December birthdays! My cards today feature the brand new 2019 Piece of Cake bundle – save 10% – (stamp set and punch) from the upcoming Occasions catalog!
I used a fun Stampin’ Up! color combo of Real Red, Call me Clover, Whisper White and Coastal Cabana inspired by a holiday tin shown below in this post.
Design Notes:
- Card Base: 4-1/4″ square Thick Whisper White cardstock
- Piece of Cake stamps stamped with Memento Black ink on Whisper White cardstock (die cut with Stitched Shape framelits) and colored with Stampin’ Blends markers
- Coastal Cabana printed designer paper layers from the How Sweet it Is pack, #148568
- Plaid: Buffalo check background stamp #147794
- Red Ribbon accent #146925
- White Silver Edge ribbon #144213
- Black skinny striped accent: Pick a Pattern Washi Tape #144166
- Scalloped oval: Call me Clover cardstock die cut with Layering Oval framelits #141706
I stamped the Happy Birthday greeting using one of my inked Spectrum Rainbow pads.. see the details about creating your own rainbow pad here.

Above: I have added a fun flourish image on top of the cake. You’ll find that in the new Amazing Life stamp set #148750 coming on Jan. 3, 2019 in the Occasions catalog. The CELEBRATE image is from the Vibrant Vases set (#148656) and I masked the other portion of the stamp.
I was inspired by this cute tin from a craft store, and decided to create these 2 cards after seeing this cute tin!
What do you think? Would you send these for December birthdays or other celebrations?
