I saw someone somewhere make a card like this Hues of Happiness Easy Birthday Card but with a different paper and greeting, I think. Of course I couldn’t find it again to see who made it but it’s an easy design and one you might see anywhere. The main thing is it is so quick and easy to make! Just change the paper and greeting for any occasion and you have a nice-looking card with just a slight twist to catch the recipient’s eye with the diagonal greeting!

To make this card, stamp a greeting on a strip of cardstock that is longer than the greeting. Choose a designer paper you want to use or stamp a background, whatever you like. Adhere the greeting strip across the corner of the card with the ends extending beyond the designer paper edge. Turn the paper over and trim off the extended greeting strip. Then you have a perfect fit!

This card uses a card base of Melon Mambo cardstock. The designer paper is one of the gorgeous patterns in the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper. After adhering the greeting to the designer paper, trimming off the ends, adhere to the card base. That’s it!

The greeting I used is in the Celebrating You Stamp Set. This is a great stamp set to go back to again and again when you are looking for a sentiment to use. There are a variety of fonts and useful, traditional greetings that you need all the time.

If you want to embellish the card a little bit, add some bling with some Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels or other jewels or gems. You could also add a small bow to the greeting if you had space. The idea is to make a quick and simple card, but a little embellishment and sparkle doesn’t hurt!
