Birthday Cards with Polka Dot Orchard's "Birthday Monsters"


Hello and welcome!

I have 2 really fun birthday cards for you today using the brand newly released digital stamp set from Polka Dot Orchard called "Birthday Monsters."

And it's a perfect time to shop because there's a 35% off sale going on right now!

Here's a look at the new set:


The minute I saw this set I knew I wanted to make some fun birthday cards for family members!

Here's another look at both cards:


The blue stripe card features a monster cake image, the confetti image in the background and a partial sentiment.  The whole sentiment is "Happy Birthday Lil' Monster" but I just wanted to use the top part of the stamp image.  So I duplicated the stamp, then cropped the image just around the "Happy Birthday" and saved the duplicate image so now I have just the top words as one image.

Here's another look at my monster cake card:


For the yellow striped card I used "Life's a Party" sentiment from the same set and the cake slice image.  On both cards I colored them with Zig Clean Color brushes, cut them with dotted rectangle and square dies and popped the white panels up on foam tape.

Here's a closer look at my cake slice card:


The gems are from a rainbow sheet of embellishments I picked up at Dollar General.

I hope you like my fun birthday cards, be sure to check out all the new sets at Polka Dot Orchard.
There's a lot to choose from and everything is 35% off right now!!!

  4. Will the monster cake eat me before I eat it?? Such a cool digital set and you've used it beautifully. Your colouring really brings the cake 'to life' and the striped background really makes the image pop. Such a fun card, so glad you shared it with us at TIME OUT!
