Bright & Beautiful 40th Birthday Gatefold Card

Make an adorable birthday card with the Bright & Beautiful Suite from Stampin’ Up and this easy fun fold!

Let me start by saying, the numbers used on this card were made with the Large Number Dies which are retired. However, this card could definitely be made with current stamp sets or other numbers you have on hand!

Blueberry Bushel was my color choice for this card. I made it for my husband’s 40th and though this blue was just perfect!

The balloons and sentiment come from the Beautiful Balloons bundle from the Stampin’ Up Annual Catalog. The bundle is apart of the Bright & Beautiful Suite. That’s also where the Designer Series Paper comes from. I thought the stars were great for celebrating!

The gatefold I used on this card is very easy. The measurements are:

• Card Base- 5½” by 8½” scored at 2⅛” on each side.
• Bright & Beautiful DSP- 1⅞” by 5¼”
• Blueberry Bushel- 3¼” by 1¼”
• Basic White- 3″ by 1″
• Scraps of Basic White & Blueberry Bushel for die cutting.

To get the numbers for your card, I recommend the Alphabest Stamp Set! It coordinates with the Best Label Punch and is so versatile. You can see it and the punch in the supply list below.

I hope you enjoyed this card today! Whether you need a birthday card for someone special or just like the fold, I hope you found this valuable. Happy Stamping!
