Cake Pop Birthday Card // Card Creations
June 15, 2017
Hi friends and welcome back to my blog! Today I have a unique birthday card to share with. I recently purchased this fun stamp set from an Etsy retailer. It features a fun cake pop theme and I had to use it for my friend's birthday card!
I started my main stamped section by using a scrap rectangle of white cardstock and stamping two cake pop sticks. Then I used a 1 inch circle punch to cut out two circles from cream cardstock. These will serve as my cake portion of the cake pop. The stamp set did include a stampable base, but I thought this would add more dimension. Next, I grabbed my ColorBox chestnut roan ink and stamped the icing portion of my cake pops. I was going for the color of chocolate so this color worked beautifully.
Once the cake pops were assembled, I worked on the sentiment. I had a scrap piece of polka dot patterned paper from Dear Lizzy that I used to stamp this tag and cut out. I then used the sentiment from the stamp set in black Memento ink to create the cute message! I couldn't leave it plain like that, so I cut a small hole through the tag and added some teak twine. These colors matched perfectly!
I finally started layering my card together. I used a beautiful piece of silver metallic paper for the background that has been sitting in my stash for years! It compliments the cake pops and the teal very nicely. This piece is cut to 4" x 5 1/4". This leaves a lovely border around the outside edge to frame the front of the card. I used another piece of the teal polka dot paper as a layer behind my cake pops. Nothing too fancy. However, if I could go back and change anything, I would have used my stitched rectangle dies to get cute borders. Lastly, I layered my cake pop piece and the sentiment tag.
To complete the card, I added a couple silver enamel dots from The Paper Studio. I absolutely love how this card turned out and I am sure the recipient will too. I hope you enjoyed this card creation and thanks for stopping by!
