Happy Wednesday Honey Bee friends!! Today I’m sharing a sweet birthday card featuring a pink Summer Cabin and the gorgeous Spring Medley embossing folder.

First I die cut one of the cute cabins from the Summer Cabins Honey Cuts. The white pieces are 80# Neenah and the others are colored cardstock from my stash. I did use a brown Copic marker to color the trunks of the trees and also a blue marker for the backing I made to go behind the windows. I used glue with a fine tip to make it easy to assemble the pieces of the cabin and trees. There’s also a very handy link to a layering guide you can find in the product description.

Next I ran the Spring Medley 3D embossing folder and pink cardstock through my die cutting machine. I trimmed the embossed piece to 4″ x 2-¾”. I also trimmed a narrow strip of green cardstock.

Before adhering any element to my A2 card base, I used a Detail Blender brush to ink on a bit of Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink to create a sky for my scene. I used the embossed panel and the cabin as a guide for where to place the ink.

Next I adhered the pink embossed piece to my card and then the green strip. I used thin foam circles to adhere the cabin, and glue to adhere the other elements except the small tree. I popped it up with foam tape.

I stamped the sentiment from the Mini Messages: Everyday set in Intense black ink. Then I cut it out with a die from Mini Messages Banners. I added a narrow foam tape strip to pop it up.

I totally love how this turned out, and I hope you do too! I enjoy using sets like the Summer Cabins in a bit of an unexpected way. Thank you so much for stopping by today–you are appreciated!
