Birthday Song Seaside Birthday Card

Hi friends!

For the second project from this week’s Online Class to Go, I’ve moved from flamingos to a completely different group of characters from the Birthday Song stamp set.

This birthday card features a fun little seaside scene with seals, a walrus and several tiny birds. There are lots of little details in these images, but I wanted to keep the rest of the card relatively simple so that the characters remained the focus.

The soft Hydrangea Hue checked paper works really well for the background and gives the card a completely different feel to the first project. I added a large Basic White panel through the centre for the stamped scene, with a narrow Calypso Coral mat helping to separate it from the background.

The images only need fairly simple colouring, so you don’t need to spend ages colouring every part of the scene. I especially like the little touches of yellow on the birds, which add just enough colour to an otherwise fairly neutral group of characters.

A banner-style Happy Birthday sentiment sits towards the top left, leaving plenty of room for the scene itself.

I also added some embellishments and a little extra detail around the background to finish the card.

It’s a fun birthday card that would work for a wide range of recipients, particularly if you’re looking for something other than flowers or a traditional birthday design.

This project is part of my Birthday Song Online Class to Go. You can also watch the replay of my Live video to see how I put the card together.

Full supply list, video tutorial, and class information can be found further down the post.
