Posted on January 1, 2025 by Lara Scott

Hi, La ra here! Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. To ring in the New Year is, for me, ringing in another birthday today. So I’ve created a Dimensional Happy Birthday Slimline Card to celebrate ME! If there are any other New Year babes out there…Happy New Year and Birthday to YOU!

Create the Birthday Slimline Card Base & Layer

I cut a card base to fit the stamped sentiment. After deciding on the design and spacing, a slimline card made sense. Fold in half a sheet of 8.5 x 8″ white cardstock the long way to create a 4.25 x 8″ card base.

Next, cut a piece of 3.875 x 7.625″ patterned paper to create the card’s front layer. Then adhere to the card base with the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser.

Stamp the Sentiment Letters

Stamped all the letters on a sheet of white cardstock leaving about 1/2″ between them. This way I can cut around them leaving a small white frame. Although they don’t have to be all the same size or width, they will still look uniform.

Arrange the Greeting

Cut pieces of the Crafty Foam Tape in White 108ft. I varied the height of the letters for interest…some popped up with a single layer, others had two layers, and then a couple were just adhered on the panel with the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser.

Here is a close of the letter H (Before + After). Lastly, I playfully arranged the letters on the card front. The stamp set lends to give it that look. I love how the Crafty Foam Tape in White 108ft. adds dimension to a fun design!
