Hi, everyone! Got a co-worker with a birthday coming up? Let’s make an office birthday card. Teri here to show you how to make a card for your favorite office mate!
To make a card like this, you’ll need some office-themed and birthday stamps, as well as a few basic paper crafting supplies.
Stamp an Office-Themed Design
Start by stamping a sentiment on a panel of cardstock to fit on the front of a card. You’ll also want to stamp and die-cut some office-themed stamped images. You can temporarily set the images on the panel to figure out how you think you might want to arrange them and then stamp the sentiment on the panel so it’s in the right place.
Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside Techniques
If your sentiment has an open space, add a 3D Foam Heart (or 3D Foam Star) to it and cover it with some red flock! Tap off the excess and it will give your card a little bit of texture.
Run some E-Z Runer® Petite Permanent Dots randomly along the edges of your panel. Grab one of our Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets (I used the Holographic Set) and gently rub color side UP/facing you onto the dots! Peel off the foil and WoW! If you missed an area, simply reapply the foil.
If the 3D Foam Heart has any exposed adhesive, try applying the foil over it for a fun and unique effect!
Finishing Touches
Secure the stamped images to the card panel with a combination of E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser and 3D Foam Squares White Mix. This will give the card some fun variation of dimension and pop!
Mount the panel onto cardstock and then onto your card. For accents, add a few Adhesive Dots and foil onto them, using the same steps for the foiled edges!
Use this Office Birthday Wishes card to give to a favorite co-worker! Either sign it yourself or have your whole team sign it!
