Stampin' Up! Pocketful of Cheer Birthday Card

Good morning, peeps! Did you enjoy the first day of spring yesterday? I did because I made this card and I feel like it is very springy! I'm keeping true to my Paper Pumpkin Kit monthly goal. This one is an alternative to the March 2016 Pocketful of Cheer kit. As I mentioned in another post, I bought lots of refills. I mistakenly said I had 4 but in counting yesterday, I have 7. What was I thinking? In any event, here's my card...


In addition to the kit contents, I used a retired Pearlized Doily cut in half. On the inside I used the retired Happiest of Birthdays stamp set.

I will be putting together 10 kits of this card for my PEO widows group in April. I don't think any of them have ever made a card before so I think I kept their first adventure quite simple. What do you think?

Here are the deets:

Card base from PP kit: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", folded at 4 1/4"

Floral self-adhesive strips from kit: 3/4" x 3 3/4"

Self-adhesive Bermuda Bay Banner from kit

Basic White Card Stock Banner: Cut 3 3/4" x 1/2" 

Striped Banner cut from belly band in kit: cut 3" x 3/4"

Stamp image from kit on square provided in kit

Adhere 2 polka dot banners from kit to back of square

Adhere strips, 1/2 doily, 3 banners to card front

Adhere square to card front using Dimensionals

Adhere 3 kit pearls to front

Inside: Adhere (2) 1/4" x 4" floral strips cut from kit envelope and stamp with retired Happiest of Birthdays Stamp Set 

Thank you for stopping by today and I appreciate any comments that you leave.
