Birthday Treats

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #215 whose parameters included for Project – Happy Birthday, petting zoo colors, scoop element and tab(s).

This card uses Karen Burniston’s die sets of Big Birthday Charms, Waterfall Card, Sweet Treats Charms, and Word Set 2 – Birthday. The Confection paper collection by Authentique is also a star of this card.

Cardbase: Use a 5.5 x4.25-inch white piece of cardstock and cover front with confetti sprinkles patterned paper. Die cut half round notch from Waterfall Card die set at center bottom of short side of card.

Waterfall: Watch the assembly video at the bottom of the linked page for the Waterfall Card. I cut the mechanism pieces (pull strip and base) from yellow cardstock. The largest square die was used to cut four double-sided patterned paper pages. Assemble waterfall as shown in video.

Food Pop-Ups: Cut and assemble the ice cream cone from the Sweet Treats Charms set. The slice of cake and large candle are made using the Big Birthday Charms set. Cut off the charm loops on both. Cake icing has Glossy Accents clear gel on it. Candle flames have glitter gloss on them.

Cut small strips of patterned cardstock and fold in half and then fold the ends to the center fold to form a pop-up cube to glue into the first two pages. Once these pop-up cubes’ glue has dried, attach the food elements to cubes. The large candle is popped-up with two strips of cardstock behind it.

Sentiments: “Celebrate!” and “Happy Birthday” are from Word Set 2. The balloons and streams are from the Big Birthday Charms set. The quote by Iris Murdoch was in the paper collection. The back of the pull tab was stamped with “Inspired by Craft Roulette. Made by” and signature and CR episode listed.

Envelope: The back flap of the envelope is decorated with leftover strips of patterned paper.
