I made this sweet birthday card using the Notes of Spring stamp set, Stampin’ Up!’s product of the month for March 2026.
Colours used to make this card are:
I created the garden Spring fawn using the following supplies:
Basic Beige card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Garden Green – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White
In the centre of a large scrap panel of Basic White card I die cut a circle using the largest of the circle dies from the Stylish Shapes dies. This was placed over the smaller piece of Basic White card to act as a mask, held in place with washi tape. I used a Blending Brush to apply Basic Beige ink to the negative space, slowly building up the colour. The mask was then removed.

The large grassy image was stamped, overlapping, the inked circle with 1st and 2nd generation Garden Green ink The smaller grassy image was then stamped using the same ink.

I added the ground image, from the Blessed Beginnings stamp set with Early Espresso ink. The sentiment was added with the same ink. The panel was then adhered to the Garden Green layer and then to the Basic Beige card front.

The deer was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto scrap Basic White card. I add the colour with Pecan Pie ink and fussy cut the image using sharp scissors. The deer was added to the card front on Dimensionals.
