This card is easily converted into almost any occasion and by changing the colors, becomes a masculine card as well.

A2 size card stock 5 1/2″x 4 1/4″
Primrose Petals paper from Stampin’ Up
Three strips of black card stock 1 1/2″ wide x 4″ long
Two strips of a color coordinated pattern card stock 3 3/4″ long x 1 1/4″ wide.
One strip of a different color coordinated card stock 3 3/4″ long x 1 1/4″ wide.
I used sentiments Happy Birthday from Curly Cute from Stampin’ Up and another thoughtful sentiment from Gifts of Kindness also from Stampin’ Up.
I am pretty sure both of these stamps sets are retired- find sentiments that work best for you and who you are sending your card to.

Last minute tip:

Stationary folder- 12′ patterned card stock and fold in half then unfold and then turn 90 degrees and fold in half and re-open. Now you should have a paper with a center vertical and horizontal fold.
Take the bottom right corner of your paper and fold about 1″ from the top and 1″ from the center then take the bottom left corner and fold 1″ from the center and 1″ from the top.
Take the bottom of the paper and fold up to meet the other two folds and crease. Now fold the bottom section up to the center fold and then fold in half left to right.
Hopefully these instructions make sense when you watch the video.
