Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Hues of Happiness Birthday Card using the Hues of Happiness Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up!

The Details of My Card

This card was for a swap using products from the new Annual Catty. I love the bright and happy colours of the Hues of Happiness DSP! I also love that the dies die cut the flowers from the DSP!

For my card, I thought a fun split panel card would work with the spiral notebook die as the panel joining the other 2 panels. I can see this spiral die working for so many cards, especially school cards! The two flowers and leaves were die cut from the DSP and matched the DSP colours on the panels.

Since there are so many flowers that I could die cut, I decided to create different colour cards in the same layout. These two cards are only some of the colour combinations that I used.

Tip: to adhere the two card panels, I lined up the bottom panel with the bottom of the card base. Then, I added glue only to the top and bottom of the Basic White piece, careful not to add it too close to the centre. I made sure to leave enough room on the bottom panel to add my ribbon.

The sentiment was stamped onto ½” scrap and then snipped the edges on the angle. The Fresh Freesia was a 5/8” scrap and trimmed to match the Basic White piece.

The ribbon was wrapped around the bottom panel and tied in a bow. A scattering of matching Glossy Dots that come in the Suite added some shimmer.
