Hi, Stamper. Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, we’re celebrating “Birthday Celebrations”, and I’m excited to share my handmade Gatefold Pop-Up Birthday Card using the Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper. This fun fold card is a landscaped version of the Gatefold Pop-Up Birthday Card that I shared with you last month. I hope my project—and the amazing inspiration from my fellow Stampin’ Pretty Pals—sparks your creativity! Be sure to check out the full blog hop lineup at the end of my post to explore more beautiful handmade card designs.

This fancy fold birthday card features a Pretty in Pink cardstock base, perfectly complementing the Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper. To enhance the design, I matted the floral paper on Pool Party cardstock, pulling colors directly from the designer paper for seamless coordination—one of the many reasons I love Stampin’ Up!’s color-matching system! The card is elegantly secured with a belly band and showcases a stunning focal point created with the Spotlight on Nature Dies, along with a beautifully detailed die-cut from the Wildflower Birthday DSP pack.

Inside this fun fold birthday card, you’ll find five beautifully arranged panels, with two Basic White panels framed by the gorgeous Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper. One panel features a cheerful “Happy Birthday” sentiment, stamped in Pretty in Pink ink using the Friends for Life stamp set. The opposite panel is intentionally left blank, providing plenty of space for you to add a heartfelt, handwritten message. This unique handmade birthday card is perfect for making any celebration extra special!

I highly recommend giving this Gatefold Pop-Up Birthday Card a try—you might be surprised at how simple it is to create! This unique fun fold design adds an interactive element that will impress any recipient. To make it even easier, I’ve included a step-by-step tutorial video below, guiding you through the entire process. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced card maker, this pop-up card is a must-try for your handmade birthday card collection!
