These handmade floral birthday cards are a great way to celebrate your friend or loved one. Forget those blah store-bought cards and craft something amazing for a birthday star! You’re going to love how easy it is to make all three versions of this card—the Now, Wow, or Holy Cow.

You can stamp the florals in a variety of colors, die-cut the blooms, add different cardstock layers, and finish off with some shiny embellishments! Your floral loving friends will be thrilled to receive any one of these birthday cards!

I am featuring the Pretty Petals bundle by Stampin’ Up!®.This stamp set has some great floral images and I paired it with the Simply Said stamp set for the ‘Happy Birthday’ greeting.

Ready to Create these Handmade Birthday Cards?

I absolutely fell in love, head over heels in love, with the Pretty Petals bundle. Oh those beautiful watercolored images just blew me away! Two-step stamping has always been a favorite of mine because I have the ability to change the colors of the leaves and flowers so easily. The Photopolymer stamps make it super easy to line up too.

Follow me on Pinterest and save these handmade floral birthday cards to your favorite paper crafting boards. You’ll love referring back to this Now, Wow, or Holy Cow series whenever you need design ideas.

I love stepping up cards in this way. It’s always nice to have ideas for creating a card in a hurry, a stepped up happy card, or a little more over the top.

It’s been wonderful to be back live with you!
