Celebration Week: Birthday Cards For A Girl

     Hey there friends! This month GCD Studios is celebrating children. From children's crafts to children's toys and home decor to cute little cards for kids as well. Today I'm going to share two cards that would be perfect for a girl's birthday. 
"Floral Tween Birthday" Card
 This first card would be perfect for a tween's birthday with the pretty floral patterned paper banner and the cute little banner and polka dot stamped images.
 Layering a few of the banner pennants with some foam tape makes some of the patterned paper stand out! Try arranging the banner asymmetrically on the card to draw interest to it. A few pearls add the finishing touches.
"Birthday Gift Trio Card" Card
This birthday card would be great to give to a little girl! What little girl wouldn't like the cute paper-pieced presents and scalloped ribbon detail? I stamped presents on patterned paper and then pieced them together, choosing brightly colored ribbon to add some softer texture.
I stamped the polka dot panel in the background to create a confetti-type festive backdrop for the gifts. I added foam tape to the center gift to give this card some dimension. Sometimes you don't need a sentiment if the theme of the card is straight-forward, hence the birthday gifts!
