My Stampin’ Birthday Party – Thanks for joining me today for my birthday party! I shared this video on my YouTube Premiere last night and celebrated with a couple hundred of my stamping friends. How cool is that?
I am excited to show off the video from last night because the projects I shared were SO fun! I created a gift bag with a card slide, a simple and quick WISH card, and a birthday cake in a box (candle and all!).

Let me share some photos of the gift bag and card holder. It was my favorite of the three projects. This card was created with the Broadway Birthday stamp set – my go-to birthday set!
The card actually slides down into the slot in the Blueberry Bushel creating a decoration for the bag itself. Pretty nifty, huh?
I just loved the balloons on the card. Who wouldn’t love a card like that? The only struggle is this is a card that can’t be mailed. Hand delivered only.
Ready to make the Birthday Bag & Card???? Here’s what you need…
- Lemon Lime Twist – 4 ¼” x 11″, score at 5 ½”
- Whisper White – (2) 3 ¾” x 5″
- Blueberry Bushel – 5 ½” x 6 ¾”

Here is the WISH birthday card. I loved creating with the Broadway Bound Specialty Designer Series Paper. That gold foil is stunning!
I love the WISH dot stamp that layers on top. It just makes the card!
- Whisper White Thick – 5 ½” x 8 ½”, score at 4 ¼”
- Whisper White – 1 ½” x 3″ and 1″ x 2″

Hi Connie, I do hope you had a blessed day yesterday. This is a wonderful project. I will be doing this soon. Can you tell me where you bought the beautifully colored bags? Thanks so much!
It was a GREAT birthday! The bags? I’m not sure where I bought them but they are the basic gift bags you can find at most stores these day. I may have even bought them at the dollar store.
Thanks. I really love the color, so off on a search. You’re a sweetie!
Awww, thanks Susan! Have fun creating!
I found the bags at the Dollar Tree today, and the balloons, too! Yay!!!
