Do you need ideas for birthday cards? I love to make a stack of quick and easy birthday cards to always have on hand. I’m combining some Unity Stamp Company stamps, dies, and paper for a set of fun and cute birthday cards.

Why make just one card when you can make many? To make it easy on myself, I die cut all the tag stamps from the same patterned paper pack. This way I know all the patterns and colors will coordinate perfectly. Then I just mix them up.
When I mix patterns, I try to keep the pattern behind the sentiment less busy. This way your eye is not distracted and struggling to read the sentiment.
The solid pattern worked out better than the stripes. Both are fun and playful, but this combination ended up causing less competition. I like how easy the sentiment is to read and it pops against that background.
Next, I picked ink and Copic colors to compliment the patterned papers and mixed those up as well. I love how pink is more feminine and blue is more masculine. Now I have a mixture of cards for all ages.
Last, I stamped and die cut all those sentiments at once. Check out the video on how easy it is to do with a template in your stamping platform. I even made a few extras so I can grab them anytime.
Thanks for joining me today. I hope today’s project inspires you. If you create something, I’d love to see it and be sure to tag me on social media. Join us in the Unity Show & Tell Facebook group to share your Unity creations.
