An Arrow Fun Fold Birthday Card with Berry Botanicals Vellum

Today I'm sharing a fun fold card that puts a gorgeous specialty paper front and center! This Arrow Fun Fold design creates such a dynamic shape, and it was the perfect way to showcase the Berry Botanicals Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I started with a Golden Glow cardstock card base, which gives such a warm, sunny frame to the design. For the fun fold mechanism, I layered the angled triangular Soft Sea Foam panels underneath, then added the panels cut from the Berry Botanicals Vellum DSP. The translucent quality of the vellum lets the rich blues, reds, and golds of the floral pattern really glow, especially with the Soft Sea Foam peeking through underneath.

For the focal sentiment, I die cut a detailed circle from Soft Sea Foam cardstock using the Spotlight on Nature dies and stamped "Happy Birthday" in Secret Sea ink from the Loveliest Tree stamp set. To tie everything together, I fussy cut a couple of the purple floral blooms directly from the Berry Botanicals Vellum paper and tucked them on top of the sentiment label, giving it a layered, dimensional feel. A few of the 2026-2028 In-Color Dots in Crisp Cantaloupe were scattered across the panels for little pops of color and shine.

Opening up the card, I kept the inside simple and elegant. I stamped the moths from the Fern & Flora stamp set in the upper corners, and added the sentiment "To a marvelous person on their birthday!" from the Sending Salutations stamp set, stamped on Basic White cardstock in Secret Sea ink to coordinate with the front.

I love how the angular fun fold design adds so much visual interest while still letting that beautiful specialty paper be the star of the show. This card would be perfect for any birthday, especially for someone who loves a garden-fresh floral look!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Sending Wishes for the Happiest Birthday!

I'm excited to share this birthday card today, made using the Everyday Essentials Mix & Match Designer Series Paper along with pieces from the Meant For You and Sincerely Noted Mix & Match Ephemera collections.

For the front of the card, I started with one of the the gorgeous floral patterns from the Everyday Essentials Designer Series Paper as my base. To add dimension, I cut a scalloped circle from Vellum cardstock using the Scalloped Blooms dies, then layered it over the patterned paper to create a soft, frosted window effect. On top of that I placed a pretty floral bouquet die cut from the from the Meant For You Ephemera Pack, which really pops against the vellum backdrop. A few Pearlized Faceted Circles scattered around the bouquet add some sparkle and dimension. Finally, I finished the front with a cheerful "Happy Birthday!" banner from the Sincerely Noted Ephemera Pack.

Inside the card, I kept things simple and elegant with a clean white panel. I stamped the moths from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink in the corners, giving it a delicate, nature-inspired touch. The sentiment, "Sending wishes for the happiest birthday," is from the Framed All Around stamp set, also stamped in Misty Moonlight to keep the color palette cohesive throughout.

I love how the soft blues and pops of pink and yellow come together for a card that feels both fresh and timeless. This one would be perfect for a friend, family member, or anyone who appreciates a touch of floral charm!
