Summer Shadows Floral Birthday Card

Summer Shadows is a die set that is going to be returning to Stampin’ Up!’s product line in the brand new 2022-2023 Annual Catalog, and I for one am SO incredibly excited for it! I love using these dies to create beautiful layered floral cards like this Floral Birthday Card.

The white heat embossed Happy Birthday sentiment really stands out against the Night of Navy cardstock. The deep blue really pops against the So Saffron yellow cardstock.
You can see all the materials, measurements, and a video tutorial on the blog today.
I’ve listed all the materials I used down below.

  

Decorating the insides of the cards is one way to really add more personality to your cards. I stamped some texture on the Very Vanilla card insert before I glued the Mint Macaron leaves and Petal Pink flower down. It gives it a little more interest than just putting it straight on the Very Vanilla cardstock.

Floral Birthday Card Colors

The colors used on this project are So Saffron, Mint Macaron, Night of Navy, Petal Pink, and Very Vanilla. Using a dark neutral color like Night of Navy really makes the sentiment stand out and become a focal point against the subtle So Saffron and other pastel colors.

Floral Birthday Card Details

The collection of ribbons and twine used on this card also adds so much texture! I love using combinations of ribbons like this on my floral cards. And of course we can’t forget the pearls!

Having a carefully curated collection of products to shop makes it so easy to create beautiful cards and projects like this!
