Sweet Wishes Birthday Card with 3D Foam Squares

I have a Sweet Wishes Birthday Card to share today! For me, sometimes need drives my creative energy.  I need a card for a sweet 5-year-old so this is what I made. To vary the height of dimension, I used both  Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares – White Mix.

The fun part of this card is coloring 🙂 It also takes the most time along with fussy cutting but the assembly is quick and easy!

Details of Sweet Wishes Card

1. Form 4.25 x 5.5-inch card base from white cardstock
2. Cut turquoise mat and fasten to card base using E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser
3. Cut dot patterned paper and fasten to card base using  E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser
4. Using white cardstock, cut a circle shape and cut off about .5 inch. Then fasten to the card using E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser
5. Stamp images with black ink on white cardstock.  Color with alcohol inks and cut out.
6. Stamp greeting on white cardstock. Trim to size and fasten to the turquoise mat using E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser
7. Apply Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix to back of girl only. Apply 3D Foam Squares – White Mix behind the cake.  (This pops up the cake a bit more and brings it forward.) Fasten to card
8. Apply 3D Foam Squares – White Mix to the back of the cat.  (3D Foam Squares make the cat pop up more than the girl.) Fasten to card.
9. Apply Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix to butterfly and fasten to card
10. Apply Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix to greeting and fasten to card.
11. Add glitter glue to candle flames, cake icing and cat hat.

This technique of adding a different dimension using both Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares – White Mix can easily be adapted to other images for your own cardmaking. Give it a try!
