That's right, it's a Big Day — actually it's two big days. Sale-a-Bration ends in tomorrow, so you only have 2 days left to get those fabulous FREE Sale-a-Bration products. Today's card was made using the Big Day stamp set.
This set works for all kinds of birthday cards — kids, female and definitely those wonderful masculine birthday cards. You can "dress" this set up to make it fancy or stick with basic neutral colors for those men in your life. Color the cake bright and cheery and the kids will love it. This is a set everyone should have.
The base of this card is Rich Razzleberry with a layer of Strawberry Slush (just a reminder that Strawberry Slush is an In Color that will be retiring soon — retirement list comes out April 21st — so be sure you have enough cardstock and ink refills to last you for a very long time). Next I added a layer of Sahara Sand Designer Paper and then a piece of Rich Razzleberry ribbon across that.
I added a 2 3/8" Scallop Circle with a 2" circle of Sahara Sand cardstock. I stamped the cake on Whisper White cardstock and punched it out with the 1 3/4" circle punch. I colored the cake stand with the Strawberry Slush marker and the ripples with the Sahara Sand marker, the candles with the Rich Razzleberry marker and the flames with So Saffron marker.
I stamped the Happy Birthday on Whisper White and trimmed the banner ends using the Hexagon Punch. The colored Birthday with the Rich Razzleberry marker and added to card front with dimensionals.

The base of this card is Basic Grey with a layer of Whisper White. I added the striped vellum paper over the bottom of the White layer using "green" glue (Stampin' Up!'s Multi Purpose Mono Glue). I stamped the splots with Smoky Slate ink and the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set. Stamp the card with Stazon ink and adhere all layers to the front of the card.
