A Birthday Celebration with Concord & 9th
/Hello, there! Today I went live on my YouTube channel for a special birthday celebration to create cards with the fun Concord & 9th Accordion Birthday bundle! Click ‘watch on YouTube’ on the thumbnail below to catch the livestream on replay, and see me create one accordion card, then show how you can also make a shaker card with the same bundle! While you’re there, don’t forget to hit the thumbs-up button and leave a comment!
In this video, I create two cards. Let’s take a look at each!
For my first card, I used the Accordion Card Base Dies to create a base for the festive Accordion Birthday Dies. I created three layers of balloons, presents, and a cake, plus added streamers zig-zagging across the window.
The majority of the work to create this card comes with die cutting, and once that is done, Concord & 9th has made it easy to put the layers together. Note: Because we don’t create accordion cards every day, it’s worthwhile to add notes to your accordion die set to remind yourself of assembly tips!
Once the accordion card was complete, I had plenty of die cuts left over, so I decided to use the oval die from the Accordion Card Base Dies to create a shaker window with streamers from the Accordion Birthday Dies criss-crossing in front! I love how easily this card came together, and it shows how well a large die-cutting session can pay off!
Thanks so much for joining me today to celebrate my birthday and get inspired to create! If you loved what I created today (how about that FUN color scheme?), check out the products that I used at the shopping links below. Happy creating, friends!
