StampinByHannah Dad’s Birthday Card using Best Route from Stampin’ Up!
Oh yes, today is my Dad’s birthday…. and because I gave him his card last night, I thought I would be really timely and share his card with you today. Men’s cards are always a little tricky, but I think we have the perfect Designer Series Paper Assistance this year; Best Route!
I recently used the same paper on a card for my Brother-in-Law, isn’t it fun that we can create multiple difficult cards with the same products and they look totally different?! I love the colour combination in this paper; Blueberry Bushel, Mango Melody and Gray Granite…. and I’ve used the same colours in the card stock and stamping.
The sentiment is taken from Picture Perfect Birthday; I LOVE this set, it’s perfect for simple birthday cards, and therefore great for guys too!
As usual with family cards I HAD to pimp the inside with some more layers of Designer Series Paper and a hint of stamping too

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Designer Series Paper Birthday Card
This weeks Make It Monday video tutorial is the perfect card to make with the left overs from your April Stamp of the Month Club kit! This month’s kit features a heap of goodies from the Picture Perfect Birthday suite, and is perfect for making Birthday cards for all your friends and family! (yes, guys included!)
I have made this style of card before, and its definately not a new idea… but it is PERFECT for using up those scraps of Designer Series Paper. This is the time of year I go into over drive mode using Designer Series Paper, with Stampin’ Up! OnStage just around the corner, and a new catalogue on the way. It’s time to clear those paper shelves in preparation for some fabulous new designs that are coming really soon!
This card (believe it or not) doesn’t rely heavily on set measurements… I would suggest measuring your scraps and going from there. But here are the measurements I have used:

StampinByHannah Make It Monday Picture Perfect Birthday and Facebook Live…
This week’s Make It Monday is a little late, but I hope that you enjoy it anyway. This past week has been crazy busy, and I just didn’t get chance to film over the weekend as it was James’ birthday yesterday. So, to make up for it, I thought I would do a short Facebook Live and a special project instead.
I had heaps of fun making this card on Facebook Live earlier… Don’t worry if you missed it, I have the re-run below. I am LOVING Facebook Live, and you don’t have long to wait before my next one. April’s Facebook Live Online Card Class is on the 3rd April at 2PM, Like my Facebook Page and RSVP to the event to get reminders, and never miss a Live again!
This fun card features both the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set and the Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper… both of which feature in April’s Stamp of the Month Club. More coming about that at the weekend!
Measurements:
Card Base; Bermuda Bay Card stock; 10.5 x 25.2 cm, scored on the long side at 14.8 cm
Basic Black; 2 pieces at 10 x 10 cm, and 1 piece at 10 x 4 cm
Designer Series Paper; 1 piece at 15 x 15 cm, 1 piece at 9.5 x 9.5 cm and 1 piece at 3.5 x 9.5 cm
The inside of this card is where the magic happens… Don’t you LOVE a card with a surprise? I do. The envelope is super easy to make using the Envelope Punch Board. This envelope uses the 15 x 15 cm piece of Designer Series Paper and is punched and scored on each side at 3″. Check the video to see how this works.

It was my younger brother’s birthday at the end of February, and i needed a quick card to send him. I always vow NOT to make him cards (he always seems to manage to destroy them taking them out of the envelope!) but then something always stops me and I end up making him one anyway! I actually made him 2 cards in one week… you can find the other one HERE!
This card came together so quickly… I LOVE it when crafts happen like that, don’t you?
The Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper stack makes AWESOME Birthday cards, with fabulous photo-real images on one side and fun patterns on the other, you can create fabulous cards in a snap. I’ve paired the Designer Series Paper with the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set, for a coordinate look… Don’t you love that that stamp fits inside the balloon perfectly!
I even stamped the inside and added a strip of Designer Series Paper and Basic Black card stock too!

StampinByHannah Thoughtful Thursday DIY Happiness Jar
As I explained last week one of my New Years “resolutions” (I don’t do resolutions as a rule, but with 2018 came a list of things that HAD to change), was to be more consistent in my use of Mindfulness to help lessen my Anxiety issues. I have suffered from anxiety for a long time, and I have always been adamant that it would not rule my life, however during the last few months of 2017 it became apparent that it had.
So, one of the ways I have started to wok towards dealing with it is by using a Gratitude Journal. This led me to do a pretty extensive Pinterest search for Mindfulness… Yes, I really do have a secret board full of positivity quotes! And during January I started to write a Happy thing every day.
So, I have made this fun Happiness Jar to keep all my Happy Things in! I have chopped a load of Colour Theory Designer Series Paper into 3 x 3″ squares to write them on, partly because I have heaps of this DSP, and partly because its so bright and colourful and that makes me Happy!
The jar itself is a Korken from Ikea… which I had intended to use for Cookie mix as part of Christmas Countdown… but I think that this idea is better!
The cute tag was SO much fun to make (and that makes me happy too! It’s a simple tag of Island Indigo card stock punched with the Scallop Tag Topper punch. I did add some ink to the bottom, and some stamping from Picture Perfect Birthday.
The star of this is the flower though. I don’t make these very often, because they are a bit of a faff and definitely require the use of a hot glue gun. The flower uses the Blossom Builder Punch, punched 6 times out of Berry Burst card stock. To create some extra dimension I added some ink to the ends of the petals with a Stampin’ Sponge, and crinkled each petal before sticking them together with hot glue. The tag is completed with a Clear Facet Gem (which I also added with hot glue… just to make sure it doesn’t fall off in 6 months time!)

Ok, so last Friday was my birthday… but one day isn’t long enough to celebrate is it?! So, this week I have a WHOLE WEEK of fabulous birthday inspiration for you! Today’s card is super simple, but the Designer Series Paper is just so stunning that it’s such a shame to cover it up!

The Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper features in this year’s StampinByHannah Birthday Card Club. Club sign up’s close on Sunday 14th January.

StampinByHannah 12 Days of Giftaways (Day 7) Make It Monday with Picture Perfect Birthday
Hello! Happy New Year!
It is Day 7 of my 12 Days of Giftaways today, you can find all the details at the end of this blog post. However, it is also Monday… which of course means it is time for a Make It Monday video tutorial!
I have a special video for you today… after my blog post last Wednesday for Inspire.Create.Challenges. I had already made two cards with the current sketch challenge, and I shared my tips for using a sketch last week, but I wanted to share my process with you too.
This card was the first card I made with THIS sketch… and although I like it, the card I shared with the Inspire.Create.Challenges Design Team is my favourite of the bunch! This is also the first card I have made with the Coffee Cafe Stamp set and coordinating Coffee Cups framelits.
When I first saw / Designed the sketch I saw Embossing paste in the top horizontal piece. Embossing Paste is a great way of adding that little something extra to your cards, a bit of extra dimension and some texture. I coloured it here using a drop of Crumb Cake reinker, for a tone on tone effect, but you can leave it white for something a little bolder.
The white splatter on this card was created by mixing a drop of Whisper White Craft Ink Re-inker with water on an Aqua-painter, then banging the painter off a pen to create splatter… I LOVE doing this but it does make a bit of a mess. I made some Christmas tags at the last minute last week and did the same thing… and managed to cover my desk, tool caddy, phone and myself in White splatter!
Ok, so the card I made on the video uses the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set and coordinating Designer Series Paper. This stamp set features in my 2018 Birthday Card Club… Club sign ups are closing really soon (7th January!) so sign up this week to grab your place!
I kept this simpler for this card, letting that Designer Series Paper do all the talking! The Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper features some fabulous photo-real birthday images as well as some really fun generic patterns in fun colour combinations!
