Ever since I purchased Stampin’ Up!’s Hearts of Elegance Bundle, I’ve been intentional about using it for all kinds of occasion cards. I try to get so much out of my bundles, and this bundle goes way beyond Valentine’s Day and love themes. Look for this bundle as one of Stampin’ Up!’s Online Exclusives–meaning not shown in a catalog. In addition, the sentiment comes from the Day to Celebrate Stamp Set. Earn the set free with a $60 purchase before tax and shipping during Stampin’ Up!’s SaleABration promotion.
Today, I offer a free, card-making tutorial to help you create a birthday celebration card. Please enjoy the step-by-step directions below.
