Birthday Card Idea for the Grill Masters in your Life!
Create a bold and modern birthday card using the BBQ Master Bundle. This project focuses on die-cut elements and metallic Lunar Lustre paper to build a striking layered design with strong visual impact.
Supplies Needed
- Lemon Lolly Cardstock: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Score at 4-1/4"
- Basic White Cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4" For inside card
- Basic Black Cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4" For card front
- Garden Poetry Designer Paper: 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" Calypso Coral
- Basic White Cardstock: 3-1/4" x 3-1/4"
- Basic White Cardstock: 1/2" x 3" For sentiment
- Lunar Lustre Specialty Paper: 2" x 3" (For die-cutting)
- Lemon Lolly, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink Scraps (2" x 2") (For die-cutting)
Instructions
- Fold the Lemon Lolly cardstock at the score line to create your card base.
- Adhere the 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock inside the card and decorate as desired.
- Adhere the Basic Black cardstock to the front of the card.
- Adhere the Calypso Coral Garden Poetry Paper at an angle at the top of the Basic Black Cardstock.
- Run the Lunar Lustre Specialty Paper through the Cut & Emboss Machine and die-cut 3 of the skewers using the die from the BBQ Master Bundle. Adhere these to the 3-1/4" square piece of Basic White cardstock, spacing them evenly.
- TIP: apply a bit of the glue to a dry sponge, tap off the excess glue on scratch paper, and dab on the back of each skewer. This will apply a thin layer of glue that will make adhering these small pieces easier.
- Adhere the Basic White cardstock to the Garden Poetry paper as shown in the sample.
- Run the scraps of Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly, and Petal Pink through the Cut & Emboss Machine and die-cut six mushrooms, 4 lemon slices, and 5 shrimp. Sponge the top edges of the shrimp using a Sponge Dauber and the Calypso Coral ink pad. Adhere all of the die-cut pieces to the skewers as shown in the sample.
- Stamp the sentiment onto the 1/2" strip of Basic White cardstock using Crumb Cake ink. "Banner notch" both ends using scissors and adhere to the bottom of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals to finish.
Notes
Worker Bee (for Confident Cardmakers)
Worker Bee projects are designed for the crafter who has a bit more time and enjoys creating a handmade card that features a technique or tool. In many cases, a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is required for die-cutting and/or embossing.
