Because You Always Need a Birthday Card Idea

…And because I really like this pennant punch and forget to use it.

I’ve been so focused on holiday stuff, it’s as though I thought birthdays would stop coming as a convenience to me. But they didn’t. Kids, relatives, friends…all sorts of birthdays this month. Here’s a quick card with very little stamping and a few extra touches that take no time at all.

All Stampin’ Up supplies: A Little Birthday Cheer (retired)
Whisper White, So Saffron, and Wild Wasabi cardstock; Just Add Cake DSP
Modern Label, Petite Pennant Builder, and Corner Rounder punches; Rhinestones;
White Signo Gel Pen; Tangerine Tango Pompom Trim (retired, but on the clearance rack!)

The stamp set is retired, but, of course, you could use any sentiment set. I popped the middle pennant and the sentiment up with dimensionals, and used glue to attach the pompom trim. It’s on the Stampin’ Up! Clearance Rack, that amazing sale which ends TODAY!

And, no, my soon-to-be-17-niece, this is not your birthday card. I’m saving yours to post after your birthday, so you’ll be surprised. I’m such a good aunt.

Happy Stamping!
