Fun Taco Fiesta Birthday Card

This is the first time I’m using the Taco Fiesta Stamp Set and it’s such a cute and fun set. Doesn’t it just make you smile?

 
 

The stamp set has all the makings of some fun Mexican food and adorable faces to add to them. The sentiments are a cute play on words.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Poppy Parade Card Base - 4 1/4 x 11, score at 5 1/2 (top folding).

  • Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper Layer - 5 1/4 x 4, adhere to card base.

  • Poppy Parade Strip - 4 x 3/4, emboss using the Geometric Patterns Embossing Folder and adhere to card front.

  • Stamp cactus, bowl of guacamole, avocado, sombrero and chips with Black Memento Ink on Basic White. Stamp faces as desired with Black Memento Ink. Color with Stampin’ Blends. I used Light and Dark Old Olive, Light Smokey Slate, Dark Poppy Parade and Light Wild Wheat.

  • Fussy cut the stamped images. I cut right up to the outline and then used a Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker to clean up any white that was showing. Just take the brush end of the marker and go around each piece to add a little black to the edge. Glue the hat to cactus and nachos to the dip.

  • Cut the largest rectangle from Basic White using the Nested Essentials Dies. Arrange the pieces you cut to determine placement for the sentiment and stamp sentiment with Crushed Curry Ink. Adhere the cut pieces using Dimensionals and Mini Dimensionals.

  • Adhere the rectangle piece to the card front with Dimensionals.

  • Add some Calypso Coral Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins. This color works well for this card.

 
 

On the inside layer stamp sentiment with Crushed Curry Ink and add some confetti with Poppy Parade Ink. Stamp the taco, dip and peppers with Black Memento Ink and color with Stampin’ Blends. Add the cute faces with Black Memento Ink if you want.
