A Reel-y Great Birthday Card (and How to Layer Unrelated Stencils)

Cardmaking In 5 Easy Steps – August 06, 2026 – Cards & Coffee Time

Happy Thursday, wonderful makers! .

A masculine card project with the new Waffle Flower Reel In die set from their Out and About Release. It turns out this die set is the Goldilocks of cardmaking—not too big, not too small, but the exact right size to be the star player on almost any card size.

Today, we are building a standard A2 card. I am officially labeling this a masculine birthday card, mostly because it involves fish, but let’s be honest: I like to fish too, and I happen to know plenty of women who can bait a hook with the guys. So, use it for anyone who enjoys the great outdoors or just appreciates a good pun.

One thought on “A Reel-y Great Birthday Card (and How to Layer Unrelated Stencils)

  1. I love all your card designs, but the audio on your videos is very “tinny” or high frequency and is hard to listen to.
