I decided to use the Stylized Birthday single-image stamp to make a bunch of fast and easy birthday cards to send out this month. To make them all look different, I used a different strip of Designer Series Paper on each one. Each of the papers I used is one of the papers that you can get for FREE as part of Stampin' Up!'s Buy 3, Get 1 FREE Designer Series Paper Special this month. Of course, they all use different colors of cardstock, ink, and ribbon depending on the colors featured in the designer paper I used, but they all use the same layout and are all quick and easy to create. Take a look and let me know which one you like best!

Here is a link to the directions for the Stylized Birthday Coffee Break Strip card. All of the cards use the same basic measurements except for scraps of designer paper from which to cut images or scraps of designer paper, cardstock, or foil sheets from which to punch or cut out shapes. I've added a few tips above on how to create some of the altered embellishments.
