Surprise Pop Up Cake Card

Hi Crafty Friends,

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I have another 70th birthday card to share today. I recently received the February release from Made to Surprise by Sam Calcott, which was the Surprise Inside Collection featuring two fun pop up die sets ... a house and a birthday cake. Of course I had to play with the pop-up cake die set straight away to create this fun birthday card.

I love pop-up cards as most of you know! And a birthday cake pop-up should get plenty of use. I die cut the base from blue cardstock and then used the papers which were also available in the collection to add to the top and bottom portions of my card. 

I added the "Birthday" sentiment from the new Big Words die set which features large word dies and some sentiment stamps including the happy used on here. The long stamped sentiment under the birthday is from the All The Verses stamp set, there is a Happy Birthday To You also on this sentiment, but of course I didn't want two Happy Birthdays, so I die a little stamp surgery :). 

I added the "70" to the bottom of the cake die cut from red glitter cardstock which is from the Chunky Alphabet die set.

For the front of the card, I added another piece of that beautiful birthday themed patterned paper. I then added the sentiment from the Showstopper Puns stamp set.  I had wanted to use the 70 from the Small Numbers Galore die set, but it was too big. But I did find that small "70!" image in the stamp set included in that die set which was the perfect size to add to a balloon.
