It's Cake Time!

Hi Crafty Friends,
It's time to stock your stash of Birthday Cards for the year and Poppy Stamps has all the dies you need to do it. I'm inspiring you with this penguin birthday party card with penguins and birthday cakes. The yummy cakes are Poppy Stamps Layer Cakes 2696 and the penguin trio come from Poppy Stamps 2026 Penguin Party collection of dies.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: What kind of cake do you like on your birthday?
A: Me? TCBY White Chocolate Mousse Cake


Step #1: I started my card by die cutting all three penguins in black and white cardstock and gave them little orange beaks and feet. Then I die cut each party hat in purple from the Poppy Stamps 6x6 Vibrant Violet Paper Pack SP1013 to match the purple plaid paper background from Memory Box 6x6 Anemone Plaid Paper Pack PP1025.



 Step #2:  I die cut the layer cakes in shade of purple and added gold flames to the candles.


Step #3: I arranged my penguins around the cakes with the coolest penguin in the center with his purple shades. Then I finished my card with two birthday sentiments from Poppy Stamps Birthday Banners Stamp and Die Set.

Penguin Birthday Fun

Hi Crafty Friends,
I love monochrome cards!  I'm inspiring you with this penguin birthday party card in shades of teal featuring Poppy Stamps 2026 Penguin Party collection of dies.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you have helium balloons at your birthday parties?
A: Me? Growing up I did until probably high school and now we do them for my niece and nephew 

Step #1: I started my card by die cutting all three penguins in black and white cardstock and gave them little orange beaks and feet. Then I die cut each party hat in teal from the Memory Box 6x6 Lagoon Paper Pack SP1010 to match my teal and gold plaid paper background from Memory Box 6x6 Anemone Plaid Paper Pack PP1025.

Step #2: I wanted my igloo to look like actual ice, so I die cut it from Poppy Stamps Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad FP1002.

Step #3: I matched the Festive Balloons to the penguins hats with teal and gold cardstock and die cut a pair for both sides of my card.

Step #4: I arranged my penguins around the igloo and gave two of them the balloons to hold with gold twine. Then I finished my card with the Birthday Fun Banner Sentiment from Poppy Stamps Birthday Banners Stamp and Die Set.
