I used the sweet little Sale-a-bration stamp set from Stampin’ Up! called The Gang’s All Meer to make a birthday card to share with you today.  I had to use some of the awesome Golden Honey Specialty DSP from the 2020 Sale-a-bration brochure for the background on this card too!

My card design is loosely based on the Inspire.Create.Challenge #059.

I started by coloring the white stripes on a panel of the Golden Honey Specialty DSP (Sale-a-bration item, available Jan 3) with my Light Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral and Dark So Saffron Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I adhered the DSP panel to a  panel of Basic Black card stock with SNAIL and then to a Bermuda Bay card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the meerkat image from The Gang’s All Meer stamp set (Sale-a-bration item, available Jan 3) in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  I colored the images with the Light and Dark Crumb Cake Combo Pack, Dark Petal Pink and Light Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I cut the image out with one of the Stitched Nested Labels Dies and then  trimmed off one edge.  I wrapped a strand of the So Saffron twine from the Metallic Baker’s Twine & Sequins Combo Pack (Sale-a-bration item, available Jan 3) around the die cut panel twice and tied a bow, then adhered the panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I masked and stamped the sentiment from The Gang’s All Meer stamp set in VersaMark Ink on a panel of Bermuda Bay card stock and then heat embossed it with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder.  I cut the sentiment out with one of the Stitched So Sweetly Dies (available Jan 3) and adhered it with SNAIL and Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.

I stamped the birthday hats from The Gang’s All Meer stamp set in So Saffron, Calypso Coral and Bermuda Bay inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock, snipped them out and then adhered them with Glue Dots to the meerkat image.  I added three of the sequins from the Metallic Baker’s Twine & Sequins Combo Pack to the card front to finish it.

I stamped the sentiment and meerkat images from The Gang’s All Meer stamp set in Bermuda Bay and Tuxedo Black Memento inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock.  I colored the meerkats with Light and Dark Crumb Cake Combo Pack and  Dark Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers to finish the inside of the card.
