Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop…Friends are Forever

Welcome to another Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop!  The theme for the month is Friends.   One way to celebrate a wonderful friend is with a special birthday card.

I don't usually make square cards but this a special occasion for a special friend.   I used one of my very favorite stamp sets from the Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog, Birthday Blooms.  Used the large flower two ways:  made some background paper similar to the card I shared here and as the main focus of the card.   This image is probably the one I have used the most and never get tired of coloring.

This is a squarish card measuring when closed 5 1/4" x 5-3/8" and it fits into a 5-1/2" x 5-1/2"square envelope.  I happen to have a stash leftover from the days Stampin' Up! used to sell them but it would also be super easy to make one using the Envelope Punch Board.
