Quick and Simple birthday cards to me are those cards that are either easy enough for a new stamper to create or cards that can be duplicated with little effort. Two of the cards that I have on display for you today were designed for some new stampers from the Alpha Phi Sorority that I had over this week. All the cards that were made are to be donated to the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC)!
I rarely get to make little girl birthday cards since we are a family of mostly little men, so this was a real treat for me! Punches and the Big Shot make these cards quick to create in a bunch and have on hand from year to year. I know I would be happy to have a pre-made card with all the birthday parties my son attends every year!
Of course, I had to make some cards for the boys too! These fun cards use strips of Designer Series Paper and punches. If you keep your scraps these cards are a breeze to create with those little strips of paper you have been saving! The punched out center is perfect as is or you can insert a picture of the special birthday boy! I just love the Family Phrases greetings when creating cards for kids because it looks like it is handwritten!
My final birthday project is a quick and simple one-layer birthday note that is perfect to include with some flowers or on a gift package. The 3 x 3 style lends itself to a quick and simple card! Adding a stamped image, a few well-placed embellishments and a greeting makes this card both easy for a beginner and quick to duplicate.
