Happy Flippin’ Birthday

Hi friends! I hope you’re having a great weekend! I have another Pajama Crafter Stamps project to share today featuring the super cute Flippin’ Best stamp set that was released in January of this year. This is another one of the (many) projects I created prior to leaving the team at the end of February and hadn’t yet showcased. There’s nothing cuter than this little guy being showcased on a faux step card with his bunch of birthday balloons! I don’t have written instructions for this faux step card fun fold but it’s basically a double easel fold (seen on Sharon Armonstrong’s blog HERE a while back) with a tall fixed panel to make it look like a step card. The assembled card is A2 size.

The card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock with panels cut from CutCardStock Lessebo Misty Blue. I stamped the penguin from the Flippin’ Best stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on 80# Solar White and colored him with Sharpie and Bic Mark-It markers. I cut layering panels from papers in the Carta Bella Beach Party Collection Kit and added a sentiment (from the same stamp set) on the bottom flap. The finishing touch was adding several iridescent gemstones to the focal image and two strips of Eyelet Outlet 4mm blue pearls to the bottom flap.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a leftover strip of paper used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the Prickley Pear Stamps Spring Scalloped Circles stamp set and layered the panel on Lessebo Misty Blue cardstock.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
