Sweet Soiree Birthday Cards

Yes, these are cards! These hanging cards fold up for mailing and are so fun to pull out of the envelope. I used the Sweet Soiree Embellishment kit which made them super easy. I am definitely ordering more of these kits. I still have lots of pieces left for more card making! Even the little tassels are in the kit.

First I cut three pieces of card stock using the largest scallop frame. The pink cake is mounted on old olive. The yellow cake is mounted on marina mist. Then I cut three of the next size down scallop squares in whisper white. I stamped the words from the Cake Soiree stamp set in berry bliss on the top piece. I laid a strip of the silver washi tape from the kit on the bottom square then stamped more words in berry bliss from Cake Soiree.

To assemble the cards I cut four 2 inch pieces of silver ribbon and taped them on the front of the colored squares. The top loop is 5 1/2 inches, also taped to the front but remember to slip the tassle on first. Then I tape the white scallop squares on top of the colored scallop squares sandwiching the ribbon ends between the two layers.

Last, I used dimensionals to adhere the cake and flowers from the kit. I slipped the velum pieces under these with just a little adhesive on the ends that went under the flowers.

Super easy and super fast! Now I need to design some cards using the rest of the pieces from the kit.
