Slimline Birthday Greetings by Jean Okimoto

Need a celebration card for spring and summer birthdays?  Hi, Jean here with a basic design that would work in many color combinations with prints from our Glimmering Gladiola 6×6 pack.  Here’s a purple version of my hybrid card combining dies from our floral collection – Clara Blooms on the Curved Magnolia Branch.  

Cut Curved Magnolia Branch from a bright green 6×6 in the Greenery Collection.  Color the stem with a brown marker.

Cut Clara Blooms from a medium-purple 6×6 in the Twilight Purple Collection.  Cut an extra set of the small petals and trim 2 of them to create a bud.  Cut the group of 4 smaller centers from the chartreuse Rainbow Reflections 6×6.  Assemble the 2 larger flowers.  

Cut the purple and gold petal print from the Shimmering Gladiola 6×6 with a portion of the 2″ wide Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.  It’ll be shorter than the die – but it’s easier than measuring.  Cut lavender cardstock with the 1-½” wide Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.  Trim the rectangles with a corner rounding punch.

Cut, score and fold a lavender slimline card (3-⅝” x 8-½”) and round the corners.

Attach the diecuts – use foam tape for the blossoms.  Add a Happy Birthday Foil Greetings White Circle Tab for an instant greeting.
