CAS Geometric Die-cut Birthday Card
Hello! Today, I am sharing a CAS birthday card created with dies. I have been looking at quilt patterns lately. I don’t quilt, but it’s a craft I have considered taking up. Although this card isn’t quilt-themed, I used color and repetition (used a lot in quilting) in its design.
- For the background, I cut white cardstock with the Lil’ Inker Designs 4.25″ square die and dry-embossed the square with the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder from Stampin Up’.
- I cut the My Favorite Things Block Happy Birthday sentiment from Stampin Up’ cardstock and adhered the letters to the square with glue.
- I used a now retired Avery Elle die to cut the rounded diamond shapes from Stampin Up’ colored cardstock. I cut the shapes in the corners in half. I adhered the pieces to the card base with Scotch Dot Roller adhesive.

Frog-themed Birthday Card
Hello! Today, I am sharing a card created for a special crafty friend who likes frogs. She customizes her handmade cards based on the recipients’ interests, professions, etc. and the ideas that she has shared sound amazing. I had been mulling over different winter birthday ideas (such as Happy BRRRthday) but threw them out the window and went with the frog theme instead.
I figured if you like frogs, the more the merrier! I used patterned paper from my stash for the background within the Avery Elle Photo Mat as well as for the card base. The MFT sentiment is not from a birthday set, but I thought it would be a fun one to use.

Love You – Die-Cut Valentine
Hello! Today, I am sharing a CAS die-cut Valentine’s Day card featuring the Baby Envelope Die with a sentiment cut from the Miss Your Swirl die set.
I created the background with patterned paper from my stash to which I added a vellum circle in the center. I wanted to quiet the pattern so that the sentiment would be more visible.
I glued the assembled envelope to the circle and then added the letters and the hearts (cut with the Gingerbread Boy die set).
Supplies:
Hugs + Kisses Hot Cocoa Cups
Hello! Today, I am sharing a quick and easy CAS die-cut Valentine’s Day card featuring the My Favorite Things Hot Cocoa Cups.
I cut the pink and blue cups from Stampin’ Up cardstock along with latte and white cardstock. I added letters created with a retired Memory Box alphabet die set. I used the largest square stitched Lawn Fawn die to cut the card background from Stampin’ Up cardstock.
