Needing extra birthday cards for your stash? Who could resist a cute birthday card? Not me! LOL!
Hello everyone, Yvonne here showing you how to make this super cute panda one that will bring a big smile to the recipient 🙂 All it takes is some paint, die-cuts and, of course, lots of our great adhesives!
Creating Birthday Fun!
First cut a rectangle piece of white cardstock as the card panel, and make a background with different tones of green paints. When the paints dry, stamp the sentiment on top.
Mat this background on green cardstock panel and then onto a white card base using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.
For the bamboo, lift the yellow release liner from a sheet of Adhesive Sheets 4×6″ and lay a piece of kraft and green cardstock on top.
Trim the Adhesive Sheets 4×6″ to the size of the cardstock you are going to die-cut from. Next, die-cut the bamboo and leaves.
Remove the release liner and place the bamboo pieces upon the card. Tip: use some tweezers to position the tiny leaves.
Die-cut the panda from white and black cardstock and glue the black die-cut parts upon the white parts using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.
Adhere the panda to the card base using 3D Foam Squares so that the panda comes to life 😉
Finish the card by painting some white dots on the bamboo leaves and panda eyes.
Give the panda’s cheeks some color with a pink pencil.
