Hello friends!
Warning: Heavy photo post
It's my turn to share some new creative projects over Altenew Card Blog. This time it is all about a few birthday cards with the Birthdays Around The World Stamp Set. It is extra special when you can convey the sentiment in your own language. With the "Think-Global" approach, this Birthdays Around The World Stamp Set was born.
Welcome to Creativity Unlocked, where we highlight a new product from this month’s new collection!
These 17 stamps (including at least a dozen various languages) will surely get you covered in most ways of saying "happy birthday" in YOUR own way.
Floral Birthday Card with Vellum
First up, I created a multi-colored text background with the help of the Stampwheel. With each stamp in place, I could add various inks (Rainbow Prism), and re-stamp the text multiple times until a satisfactory result was reached.
To diffuse the colorful background just slightly, I added a strip of Vellum Translucent Paper. On top of that, I die cut the Sweet Blooms Die Set with Glitter Cardstock (Pink Brilliance).
This birthday stamp set not only makes it fun and easy to create, but it also colorfully conveys "Happy Birthday" in multiple languages!
PRO TIP: Don't forget to use the tiny pieces of Sweet Blooms Die Set to embellish the card!
Embossed Birthday Card
Are you in the mood for embossing? Then you will love the next design. With the Stampwheel, simply position and arrange the chosen sentiment and EMBOSS them in one go with Pure White Embossing Powder.
Then, I created a vellum overlay with Vellum Translucent Paper. Underneath the overlay, I die cut four sets of leaves from the Archways Die Set.
The vibrant Alcohol Ink Backgrounds 6x6 Paper Pack is perfect for die-cut leaves. I love the unexpected pops of colors from the edges. As for the gaps between sentiments? The Satin White Sequins are the perfect embellishment.
Birthday Card With Chinese Characters
I have two specific examples of using "Happy Birthday" (in Chinese). The first way is to use the stamp as is (with each character across). The Sweet Blooms Die Set and Woven Basket 3D Embossing Folder were used as accents here.
The 2nd way is to cut up the stamped Chinese character. Next, follow the order and arrange each character vertically. The beautiful patterns from Shattered Cubes Layering Stencils are the perfect backdrop.
As you can see, this Birthdays Around The World Stamp Set truly is very useful.
Did you know there is a Hawaiian sentiment? You can absolutely pair it up with Hawaiian-themed stamps for another floral birthday card. Lastly, I'd love it if you can leave me your feedback over Altenew Card Blog. Thank you for stopping by!
