Hi everyone! Jes here, with a quick little birthday card tutorial. I used the Super Boy, and the Happy Birthday stamps sets from Sweet Stamp Shop to create this cute little card for my husband's birthday.

I knew when I started that I wanted to have the little super hero on a background of stars or clouds.  While flipping through my rather embarrassingly large collection of paper I found this lovely starry paper from Lawn Fawn. It was perfect.  

I used a blank card from Michaels that I've had in my stash for a while. I measured an inch from the top and two inches from each side and used my paper trimmer to cut out my rectangle fairly quickly. After a few practice runs with a blank sheet of paper it was pretty easy to cut out my shape. 

I then cut a matching piece from my star paper, but just a bit bigger so that it could be glued to the inside of my card. 

After attaching the starry background to the inside of my card, I used the Happy Birthday stamp set and some white card stock to create the little banner sentiment, and glued that in place as well. 

After stamping out my little super hero with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink, I fussy cut him out and used my Tombow Dual Brush Markers to color him in.  

My final step was securing him in place with a few foam dots to add a pop of dimension. 

All in all, discounting time to take photos the card took about twenty minutes start to finish.
