Good Morning.

I have made a bright and colourful unicorn birthday card today. I think it will be lovely for anyone who loves anything magical and bright.

The products I used are:

• Pale Turquoise Plain Card 240gsm
• White Card Super Smooth 250gsm
• Dark Violet Plain Card 240gsm
• Raspberry Pink Plain Card 240gsm
• Baby Pink Plain Card 240gsm
• Ivory Card Linen 255gsm
• Daffodil Plain Card 290gsm
• White Card Super Smooth 300gsm
• Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm

I also used:

• Unicorn stamp (Hero Arts)
• Birthday Greeting (Uniquely Creative Stamps)
• Oval dies to make a rainbow
• Cloud die
• Die cutting machine
• Pink embossing powder (WOW)
• Copic Markers
• Nuvo Drops

pmdunTo start with I used a piece of Pale Turquoise Plain Card 240gsm which I trimmed and scored to make my card base. I then cut down a piece of White Card Super Smooth 250gsm and adhered this onto my base with Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm.

I then used some more White Card Super Smooth 250gsm to stamp and colour my unicorn. I trimmed this out and started to make the rainbow.

For the rainbow I used some oval dies and stacked them onto Dark Violet Plain Card 240gsm, Raspberry Pink Plain Card 240gsm, Baby Pink Plain Card 240gsm and Daffodil Plain Card 290gsm.

I ran each colour through my die cutting machine and once this was complete I made a rainbow. I adhered them onto some more Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm and adhered the complete rainbow onto my card. I then die cut some clouds using a piece of Ivory Card Linen 255gsm and added these and my unicorn to the card. I then heat embossed its your birthday greeting onto a piece of White Card Super Smooth 300gsm and adhered this to my card.

To finish the card off I added some nuvo drops but feel free to add extra embellishments if you like.

I hope this tutorial is helpful and have fun making some bright unicorn birthday cards.
