Birthday Circle Flip Card
At February Stamp Club, we made this cute "flip" birthday card with the Number of Years stamp set and dies. With the Large Numbers Thinlits, you can put any age you choose!
It seems that everyone loves a card with some movement to it, and this card is SUPER easy to make with the Circle Card Thinlits Dies. On a standard 8 1/2 by 5 1/2 piece of cardstock (don't score it!), set the Circle Card Die and run through your Big Shot. All the score lines and cut lines are already done for you!
If you want to add Designer Series Paper like we did in this sample, cut your DSP at 5 1/4 by 1 7/8. Adhere it ONLY along the top and bottom and the side that will be toward the outside edge of the card. When you use the card die, the circle part of your DSP will come out without leaving a mark.
I used the cute little Party Punch Pack balloon punch and some doodling (no stamps) to make these little balloon accents. I really love how they look on this card!

Perfectly Artistic Matchbook and a Thursday Tip
This darling matchbook gift card holder was one of the February Stamp Club project. The host requested birthday cards for kids, and so I thought a gift card holder would be perfect!
Here is a side view that shows the 3D effect of the scoring. I found a similar project from Mary Fish that I used as inspiration. I cut Thick Whisper White at 3 x 8 1/2, then scored at 3 3/8, 3 3/4, and 7 3/4.
Thursday Tip: No sense in "wasting" all that Silver Foil paper that sits behind the Perfectly Artistic DSP, right? I die cut a square or tag out of each Silver Foil mat, then we used one to punch the cute little birthday candles that help hold the flap down.

Easy Watercolor Birthday Wishes
This card is one of my favorites that I've made lately. When I was designing projects with my free Sale-a-bration paper Perfectly Artistic DSP, the "back" (the non-swirly-marbled side) reminded me of the Watercolor Wishes kit! So I pulled out my Extras bag from that kit--which is my very favorite kit of ALL time--and used the sequins and the stamp set.
The Flower Fair Framelits helped me put together flowers that were a lovely watercolor style. I used the leftover pieces of the Perfectly Artistic DSP to cut them.
This card has been my most popular post ever on Facebook, so I wanted to share it here for my readers who aren't FBers. Be sure to send me your birthday and address if you'd like to receive a birthday card from me! #imbringingbirthdaysback

Sneak Peek: Glitter Tape Birthday for FMS 223
I'm finding that I like a narrower width, so I've been cutting the tape in half--it will last longer that way, too!
I used the FMS223 sketch you can find here at Freshly Made Sketches:
