Simon Says Stamp | Elephant Birthday!

Simon Says Stamp | Elephant Birthday!

I celebrate my Birthday in February and either subconsciously or purely by coincidence I happened to make a bunch of Birthday cards this month! I wonder why 🙂 . Anyhow, today’s card features some simple stamping, coloring and nothing else! Much like most of the cards I share on my blog.

CARD DETAILS

This card is ridiculously easy to make. Start by stamping a few funny critters and sentiments in proper ink type (depending on what you’d like to use to color there). I stamped mine in Intense Black as I later colored them using Copics.

Add some simple/basic coloring – by changing up the color scheme to blue/green you can easily make this card a masculine one. Or use yellow/green for a gender neutral project. Stamp diagonal stripe background, trim both and adhere on to an A2 white card base. Card done! It’s flat and wont require any extra shipping cost to reach the recipient.

Hello, crafters! While I am away from my craft room (on a month-long work trip in China) and…

  1. This is so cute Yana, there is something about cute elephants on a birthday card that I love???
    Happy (belated?) Birthday!
    Mine is on St. Paddy’s day and I too make a tonne of cards in my birthday month but I KNOW why…MANY of my (large) family also celebrate a birthday in March….From my Mom, brother, 3 nieces and my SIL (who also shares MY birthday). Is it any wonder why I am constantly looking for ideas for birthday cards this time of year? haha 😉

  2. Nice uncomplicated card! A great easy plan to follow for getting started on card making as well as a quick card to make when in a hurry. Love the layout!

  3. Yana, this card is just perfect! Thank you for using an older set. It is so lovely to see inspirational designers like yourself not always reaching for the latest release. I love your work and I love seeing what you are going to create next. You are such an inspiration to me and I regularly reproduce your designs in my own style. Thank you.
