I used the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Life stamp set to create a fun birthday card to share with you today.

My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches 510.

I started by embossing a panel of Early Espresso card stock with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder and then adhered the embossed panel to the Early Espresso card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I cut a panel of Blackberry Beauty DSP with one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies.  I adhered the die cut to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered a panel of Cinnamon Cider DSP from the 2021-2023 In Color DSP pack to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped the pig image from the Joyful Life stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then colored it with Light and Dark Petal Pink, Cinnamon Cider and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers and then cut the panel with one of the Layering Circles Dies and adhered it to a scalloped circle cut from Early Espresso card stock with another of the Layering Circles Dies with Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered the layered die cuts to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Brew Some Fun stamp set in VersaMark Ink on a panel of Polished Pink card stock and then heat embossed it with white embossing powder from the Basics Embossing Powders pack.  I cut the sentiment out with one of the Hippo & Friends Dies and adhered it with Stampin’ Seal and Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.  I added three of the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Brew Some Fun stamp set in Polished Pink ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then stamped the coffee image in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink next to it.  I colored the coffee with Light and Dark Polished Pink and Cinnamon Cider Stampin’ Blends Markers and then adhered a strip of Early Espresso card stock that was embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder to finish the inside of the card.
