I used the Stampin’ Up! Fluffiest Friends stamp set bundle from the upcoming Online Exclusives (available November 7) to create a birthday card to share with you today.  I also did a video tutorial for this card and you can see it on YouTube here.

My card design was inspired by The Paper Players Challenge PP664.  I went on the diagonal from lower left to upper right and straight down the middle.

I stated by adhering a panel of Pool Party card stock to the front of a Thick Basic White card base with Stampin’ Seal.  Then I cut a panel of Glorious Gingham 6″ x 6″ DSP with one of the Fluffiest Friends Dies (available November 7).  I cut a panel of Granny Apple Green card stock three times with the grass die from the Fluffiest Friends Dies and then adhered the die cuts to the back of the die cut opening on the DSP panel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the DSP panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Then I stamped the bear image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set (available November 7) in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then stamped the bee image from the Fluffiest Friends stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the Pool Party panel on the card front.  I colored the stamped images with Light and Dark Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake, Poppy Parade and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers and then cut the bear out with the coordinating die from the Fluffiest Friends Dies.  I adhered the die cut bear with Mini Glue Dots to the card front.

I cut panels of Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lolly card stocks with the Fluffiest Friends Dies.  I adhered the die cut pieces to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Mini Glue Dots.  Then I tied a small bow from Linen Thread and adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot to the card front.  I stamped the sentiment from the Hello Kiwi photopolymer stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Poppy Parade card stock, sprinkled it with white embossing powder from the Basics Embossing Powders and then heat embossed it.  I cut the sentiment out with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies and then adhered it with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front.  Adhere two of the Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch photopolymer stamp set in Pecan Pie ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then adhered a strip of Glorious Gingham DSP to finish the inside of the card.
