Free DIY Sharpie Birthday Card for Silhouette Cameo

Filed Under: Free Cut Files, Project Tutorials

Happy Freebie Friday readers! A while back, I was standing looking at birthday cards at Target wondering why I was purchasing one. I mean, I have a handful of die cutting machines (Silhouette Cameo 3 and Cricut Maker) – I should certainly be creating one! Honestly, I’m more of a home decor, vinyl, and paint kind of girl! I’ve gradually gotten more comfortable working with paper the last few years and I am thrilled to be able to share these easy birthday cards with you.

Once you get the file into Silhouette Studio, sketch the background using the pen holder and marker of your choice. Then, without unloading the machine, cut the card out. Next, load a new piece of cardstock and sketch the cake. Again, without unloading the machine, switch to a blade and cut the cake out. Color the cake to your liking and attach it to the front of your card with an foam glue dot. Easy as that!

Wondering why I chose a birthday card? Well, today is my birthday! I’m having a huge sale in my Etsy shop: Cutting for Business on Etsy. Prices are already marked down, no coupon code needed. If you are wondering how I did the sale hop over to this post from earlier in the week. You missed the sale!

    Happy Belated Birthday,

    Thank you for the card templates. If you were in Philly, you would be getting about two feet of frozen topping on your cake from Mother Nature!

      Thank you John! Stay safe and warm! Being from Chicago, I remember those days – but haven’t seen snow in a decade (and don’t miss it one bit!) Can’t wait to see what new projects come out of being snowed in!

    Happy birthday! I will have to give pen drawings another try on my Pazzles. I found that I would get a dot of ink where the pen set down to draw. It might have been the paper I was using as well.

      It definitely could have been the paper. I love doing drawings with my Cameo or Cricut!
