Happy National Scrapbook Day! With it being National Scrapbook Day, some of us from Creative Scrapbooker Magazine's Bloggers and Design Team are participating by sharing projects with you on Creative Scrapbooker's Social Media Pages. You'll want to check out their Facebook Page, Instagram and Blog as they will be giving prizes away all day. For my project, I created a Happy Birthday card featuring products from Bo Bunny, Emerald Creek Craft Supplies, Elizabeth Craft Designs, Ranger Ink and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. Grab a cup of your favourite beverage and read below as I share with you how to recreate my Happy Birthday Card at home.
To start, die cut the 3" Stitched Rectangle die out of a piece of Super Stock Cardstock. Once the rectangle has been cut out, place the 2 1/4" Stitched Square die 1/2" from the top and 3/8" from the left of the stitched rectangle. Cut the stitched square out.
Once the square has been cut out of the top portion of the rectangle. Apply Emboss It Ink to the entire surface of the rectangle. After the ink has been applied, sprinkle Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder over the entire rectangle. Emboss the rectangle with the heat tool. You'll need to reapply Emboss It Ink in the areas where the powder didn't stick. Sprinkle Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder over the spots that have ink on them. Emboss the spots with the heat tool.
Cut a piece of Super Stock Cardstock that measures 7/8" x 1 1/2". Apply Jet Black Archival Ink to the Happy Birthday sentiment stamp. Stamp the Happy Birthday Sentiment onto the cut piece of Super Stock Cardstock. Using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool, ink the edges of the sentiment.
From the Typewriter patterned paper, cut a piece that measures 5" x 7". Distress the edges of the patterned paper. Ink the edges of the patterned paper using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
From the Hidden Treasures patterned paper, cut a piece that measures 6 3/4" x 4 3/4". Cut a second piece that measures 2 1/4" x 5 7/8". Distress the edges of both pieces of patterned paper. Ink the edges of the patterned papers using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
With the Hidden Treasures patterned paper still out, fussy cut a key a letter. Ink the edges of the fussy cut images with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
From the Bricks patterned paper, cut a piece that measures 4 1/2" x 6 1/2". Distress the edges of the patterned paper. Ink the edges of the patterned paper using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
From the Adventures patterned paper, cut a piece that measures 4 1/4" x 6 1/4". Distress the edges of the patterned paper. Ink the edges of the patterned paper using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool. From the other side of the piece of paper, fussy cut the hot air ballon. Ink the edges of the hot air ballon using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
From the Graphic patterned paper, fussy cut three frames. Ink the edges of the frames using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
From the Utopia patterned paper, fussy cut two frames and the ampersand out of the frame. Ink the edges of the frames and ampersand with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.
From the Old School patterned paper, fussy cut a telephone and two cassette tapes. Ink the edges of the telephone and tapes using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a Blending Tool.

On the top right side of the grey/blue patterned paper, slightly tear the paper down. On the bottom left side of the grey/blue patterned paper, slightly tear the paper up. Adhere the grey/blue patterned paper to the brick patterned paper.

On the right hand side of the embossed frame, adhere a frame, a telephone and a cassette tape.
Adhere the other cassette tape underneath the telephone cord. Adhere the Happy Birthday sentiment 1/8" from the left and 3/8" from the bottom of the embossed frame.
