Hello friends!

Crafting a unique and personalized birthday card can be a delightful journey, especially when it reflects the recipient's interests. This card was made for my husband who loves travelling an exploring the new places. Our next adventure will be taking our family to New YorkCity. Cant wait!

Today, I’m sharing a tutorial for this masculine travel-themed birthday card featuring Honey Bee Stamps supplies. This card is perfect for any adventurous spirit who loves to explore the world.

CARD RECIPE

Prepare the Card Base: 

• Start with a standard A7 card base. I did end up trimming about 1/4" off the top an bottom of the finished panel.

 Create the Background:

• Stamp the Aviator Stamp images using Bee Creative Brilliant White Pigment Ink to create a subtle, white heat-embossed background on a kraft panel. Trim and glue to a coordinating colored background panel once the circles are diecut in the next step.  

Build the Focal Point:

• Use the Sweet Stacks: Circles Dies to cut a circles from the center of the Aviator Stamped images piece. And another circle for the background layer. Glue the stamped layer onto the solid background colored layer. This will create an elevated focal point of the card.
• Die cut the "Time to Go" sentiment using the Time to Go Postcard Dies from both white and black card stock. Glue the black layer onto the white layer, slightly shifted to create a shadow layer. Add glossy accents to give it a shiny, dimensional finish. Set aside.
• Select a pattern piece from the Grab Your Passport Paper Pad featuring travel tickets and cut them out. Organize the ticket layout around the opening of the card front. Glue them in place, use foam to elevate and create dimension on some of the tickets.
• Adhere the finished Time to Go circle die cut to the card base using Black Foam Dots 1/4" for dimension.

Add Finishing Touches:

• Embellish the front with Grab Your Passport Gem Stickers to add a touch of sparkle.
• Use a punch tool and add an eyelet to one of the tickets. I used the NYC one as that is where we are going next and added a piece of twine to the top with a simple knot.

Finisih the Inside:

• Stamp the inside sentiments from the Plane Awesome Stamps set using the Bee Creative Intense Black Ink Pad. The sentiment “Let the adventure begin. Wishing you an adventurous birthday” perfectly complements the travel theme.

I hope you got inspired by this Masculine Travel Themed Birthday Card. Enjoy creating a card like this one and celebrating the adventurous spirit of your loved ones.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Suitcase Birthday Wishes Card | Honey Bee Stamps

***Please note links in the post are no longer active, if you are looking for something specific use this link here to 👉 HONEY BEE STAMPS and search for the product listed. My apologies for the inconvenience ***

Hello, my friends!

Today's card couldn't be more fitting. My husband surprised me last week for my birthday with a trip starting in Nashville, Tennessee, and ending in Asheville, North Carolina. If you want to check out the highlights of our adventure click HERE for the Reel. He had this trip planned since December and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to go as I have been dealing with a herniated disc in my back since January. Thankfully I have come a long way with lots of physio and rehab. This trip was just what I needed both physically and mentally as these past 6 months have not been the easiest for me. Hopefully, my 48th year will be a better one!🤞

CARD RECIPE

Paper - Grab Your Passport Paper Pad

Frame 1 - Lovely Layouts: Posted - Dies

Frame 2 - Lovely Layouts: Party Frames - Honey Cuts

Frame 3 - Sweet Stacks: Rectangles

Suitcases - Lovely Layers: Small Suitcases Dies

Flowers - Lovely Layers: Globe Dies

Sentiment - Plane Awesome Stamps 

Ink - Bee Creative Intense Black Ink Pad and Ground Expresso Distress Oxide Ink

Tools - Ink Blender Brushes

Pearls - Travel Pearl Stickers

• Begin by die-cutting and assembling the Lovely Layers: Small Suitcases Dies
• For a fun detail, I added white stitched lines all around the suitcases using a gel pen
• Die-cut the largest frame using the Lovely Layouts: Posted - Dies and paper from Grab Your Passport Paper Pad
• The next frame comes from the Lovely Layouts: Party Frames - Honey Cuts. Add foam to the back and glue to the previous frame

• Die-cut the smallest frame using the Sweet Stacks: Rectangles, add ink blending to the edges to distress the paper, and give it a vintage vibe.
• Stamp the sentiment out using Plane Awesome Stamps in Bee Creative Intense Black Ink
• Add foam to the back of the suitcases and arrange them onto the card front.
• Glue the die-cut flowers from the Lovely Layers: Globe Dies in place
• Add the Travel Pearl Stickers to the center of the flowers

I love how this Suitcase Birthday Wishes Card turned out. The travel, birthday, and vintage vibes are just so pretty! The Lovely Layers: Small Suitcases Dies are so versatile I will definitely use them more in the future. Make sure to stop by my Instagram next as I will share how to reel there. 

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
