It’s not every day you get to make a birthday card for someone using stamps they designed! And now that I know she’s received it, I can share it with you!
When I saw the magical marquee card that Diana Gibbs made a couple of weeks ago, I couldn’t wait to make one, so I followed her link to JanTink’s awesome tutorial. As luck would have it, the designer of these stamps (Jannie Ho) had a birthday coming up, and these little guys from Just Skating By were perfect for what I had in mind.
Now here’s the magic — when you open the card, this is what you see:
Fun!!!! And not as difficult as it looks, especially with JanTink’s tutorial. I had to hand write the greeting inside, because even though I have 65 million stamps, I didn’t have a “happy birthday” with the right kind of font! And that birthday cake in the middle? That’s a sneak peek from Jannie’s new set that will be released exclusively by i {heart} papers next week.
Jannie, I hope you loved the card as much as I loved making it! And I hope your birthday was as special as you are!
