Create the Birthday Leaves Card Panel

I used two white cardstock panels. Emboss the first card panel with a dry embossing folder and set it aside. This will be your card panel base.

Use a combination of ink colors with your ink blending tool on your second card panel and let dry. Next, emboss the pattern with the same embossing folder on the panel. Die-cut a few leaf shapes out of the inked panel.

Designer’s Tip: If you have cutting dies that work with the folder, use them to cut some shapes.

Embellish the Card Front

Trim your white panel to fit onto a card base. Add two Creative Photo Corners Black to it. Cut a large rectangle from a sheet of the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Medium White and place it on the back of the panel.

Mount some of the inked shapes to your white panel with Crafty Foam Tape. Use the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to adhere the others flat. Trim any excess. Place the panel onto a card base.

Add a Sentiment and Accents

Stamp a sentiment on a strip of white cardstock. Place it on your panel, using a strip of Crafty Foam Tape to adhere it for a little extra pop.

Complete the card by accenting it with sequins (or other small embellishments) and Adhesive Dots Small.
