Today’s card is just bright and cheery. Its just makes me smile with the happy colors and super fun polka dots!
You know when you really enjoy making a card because I’ve made 100 for Thank You notes for September orders and 110 for my trip to St George, Utah for the Stampin’ Up! Founders Circle Retreat. Wowsers… that’s 210 cards. YIKES!!!
I hope that you enjoy today’s tutorial. Be sure to let me know if you need something or have any questions.
Thanks for stopping by BrandysCards and have a Blessed Day!
Crumb Cake Base
1. Cut your cardstock to 4-1/4″ x 11″ and fold in half. This is your base.
2. Cut a 4″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Whisper White Cardstock to layer inside your card.
3. Using a Sponge Dauber and Whisper White Craft ink to dab on your large Polka Dots.
Tip: You can sprinkle embossing powder over them to dry the dots or you can use a heat tool. I just sprinkled glitter over them and let them air dry.
Flower
1. Cut a 4-1/4″ x 3-1/4″ piece of So Saffron Cardstock. This piece you will layer on top of your crumbcake base.
Tip: I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere it and pop it up. I would add your ribbon before adding this piece to the top of your card.
2. Cut a 4″ x 3″ piece of Whisper White Cardstock. This piece you will stamp your flower on.
Tip: Stamp your flower before you hand tear your whisper white cardstock.
3. Color your “Hey There Buds Stamp” using Melon Mamba, Tangerine Tango, Daffodil Delight or Crushed Curry and Always Artichokes Stampin Write Markers.
Tip: If you take a bit to color… breath misty hot air onto your stamp to moisten it a bit.
4. Line your whisper white cardstock on top of the So Saffron Cardstock and hand tear it. Center and glue the Stamped Image on top of the So Saffron Cardstock.
Embellishments
1. Use sticky strip to hold your ribbon in place.
2. Use a two way glue pen to the flowers and dazzling diamonds glitter.
3. Add a Jewel Rhinestone for the embellishment.

Great card Brandy! So pretty
I think your hey bud card is exceptional. I love getting these videos. Wow on the dazzling diamonds covering the dots. I thought that was a nice touch. Beautiful card! Loved your color choices too!
The “Hey There Buds” card video was awesome, you make cards that are so pretty. Thank you for sharing your ideas with us. I wanted to thank you for sending me one of the cards, received it today and it was “Beautiful”…can’t wait to make one myself. Have a wonderful evening.
Really, really enjoy watching your videos. Every thing you make is beautiful
Great card. I like how you show the different ways of doing things. Using the dauber if you don’t have the mask is a great idea. Thanks for sharing and I can’t wait for your next video.
Hi Brandy,
I have missed your frequent videos but certainly understand! Family SHOULD be first and everything else comes after….
Enjoyed your video as usual. Beautiful card/cards! I have been stamping for about 15 years but sometimes its good to re-visit techniques as we continue to add to our “stash”. Thank you for sharing the dauber idea and (marker) direct to stamp technique as I have a tonne of “stuff” I have bought SINCE I’ve done that! Heaven only knows what I am capable of NOW!!! LOL
Looking forward to more of your work….
Brandy, you’re so sweet, thanks for the great videos you share with us. Very pretty card, great ideas!!!
I just love your video’s and always get excited when I see a new email that contains a new video from you!!! Your cards and ideas are always so awesome and even thought I don’t have some of the sets you use, I improvise and use the ones I have. Thanks for always sharing with us! <
Such a pretty card! I love the colors and glitter. I always look forward to your videos!!
Great project Brandy, I love all the little touches you added. The addition of the raised flower and the Dazzling Diamonds add so much texture, dimension and sparkle to your card. I had the pleasure of meeting you on the way home from Convention and I want to say again how much I enjoy your projects.
