Hi crafty friends! Snarky cards are some of my favorites to make, and the new Snarky Birthday Stamp has me rolling with those sentiments! I know I’ll be making so many variations of this card as well as many others using this stamp set. Let’s get into the card!

Step 1: Trim a piece of Stark White Cardstock down to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and blend Ultraviolet Stellar Ink all over the first Gifted stencil using a Blending Brush.

Step 2: Using some 100% Juice Stellar Ink and a Blending Brush, blend that ink over the second Gifted stencil.

Step 3: For the third Gifted stencil, blend some Woof! Stellar Ink onto the panel using a Blending Brush.

Step 4: Now blend some Shady Stellar Ink onto the panel using a Blending Brush and the final stencil from the Gifted Layering Stencil.


Step 5: Instead of tapping our candle stamp from the new Snarky Birthday stamp onto our ink pads, use a Small Blending Brush and blend the colors Shooting Star, Rosy Cheeks, and Prom Queen onto the stamp. Stamp that onto a piece of Stark White Cardstock.

Step 6: Grab another piece of Stark White Cardstock and stamp the cake stamp from Snarky Birthday using Black Widow Stellar Ink.

Step 7: Stamp the sentiments onto a piece of black cardstock using Clear Emboss It Ink. Cover that with Super Fine White Embossing Powder and heat that with the Heat Tool until it is smooth and melted. Let it cool.

Step 8: Die cut the cake, candles and sentiment using the matching dies from Snarky Birthday. Trim down the other sentiment.

Step 9: Trim another piece of Stark White Cardstock down to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and blend Ultraviolet Stellar Ink all over the panel using a Blending Brush.

Step 10: Trim 1 ¼” of the stenciled panel and attach that to the Ultraviolet panel using MEdia Glue. Use Clear Foam Tape to attach the cake, candles and sentiments to the panel. Assemble the card.
