Birthday Greeting Cards With Stampin’ Up! Arched Wishes

If you’re looking for fresh inspiration to create Stampin’ Up! birthday greeting cards, you’re in the right place! In my latest live card class, I featured a beautiful trio of handmade birthday cards using the Arched Wishes Stamp Set and Everyday Arches Dies. These products are a dream to work with, and I can’t wait to share how you can easily create unique and fun birthday greeting cards with these stamps and dies!

The Arched Wishes Stamp Set offers three unique sentiments that are curved! These sentiments can be used alone or with the Everyday Arches Dies. Arched Wishes, also, has stamps that include a cupcake, balloon, and streamer along with a few smaller stamps.

Pairing the stamp set with the Everyday Arches Dies takes your projects to a whole new level. For my birthday cards, I used the dies to add a layered effect. In the live class, I demonstrated how to use them to add dimension and interest without overwhelming your card. Yet, the versatility of the arched dies lend them to be used for a “window effect,” peek-a-boo or shaker card! Just so many possibilities!

Trio of Birthday Greeting Cards

I used the Wildflower Birthdays 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper for my layers and some arched die cuts for all three cards. For my first card, I used Pretty in Pink for the card base and layered with Designer Series Paper. The cupcake and greeting were stamped with Tuxedo Black Momento Ink. I used Pretty in Pink and Soft Seafoam Stampin’ Blends to color the cupcake.

For my second birthday greeting card I layered with Blueberry Bushel dry embossed with the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. The two smaller arches were die cut from the Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper. The balloon was colored with Blueberry Bushel and the Light Boho Blue Stampin’ Blends. This card would be perfect for a masculine birthday!

For my third birthday greeting card, I used the largest arched die to create a frame from Designer Series Paper, Next, I used the same die to cut a Basic White arch as my focal point. I stamped, colored and fussy cut the cupcake to use as my focal point on the arch. I then glued the arch into the opening in the Designer Series Paper.
