Basic White scrap for sentiment die
Score the 1 1/2″ x 5″ hinge piece at 2″ and place a strong adhesive (Stampin’ Seal + or Tear-n-Tape) on the long side and fold at the score line. Put the score line directly on the left edge of the card base in the center and adhere the hinge piece to the inside of the card base.
Place Stampin’ Seal + or Tear-n-Tape on the right side of the top of the hinge piece when it is folded, leaving about a 1/2″ free of adhesive.
Place the front flap piece over the closed hinge piece making sure that the front flap layer is even on all four sides of the base piece.
Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of DSP to the inside right of the card base.
Adhere the DSP or in this case the Basic White layer onto the inside left or top of the card depending on the card orientation.
Adhere the 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ DSP to the card front.
Adhere the 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ DSP to the card front.
Using Basic White scraps I die cut a Stylish Shapes circle and stamped the belated birthday sentiment from the Something Fancy stamp set in Coastal Cabana ink.
I popped it up on the card front and offset it to the bottom right hand side.

I die cut the Happy Birthday dies from the Wanted to Say die set in Basic White and Coastal Cabana and adhered them to the inside of the card making sure they did not peek out of the card when the front flap was closed.
I added a bunch of Iridescent Pearls to the card, some around the outside so when the card is open you can see them, some on the outside sentiment piece and even one on the Wanted to Say die on the dot for the I!
This is such a fun and easy card to make and shows off all that paper you have! Now go and create some art work of your very own – one stamp at a time!
Happy Stampin’
